for the past 9 months my stools have had a very tarry texture, are the color of clay, have black specks in them, often times look like i have undigested peanuts in them (wheni have not eaten them)and sometimes are'thin and ribbony'. there was one incedent where i bled profusely after having a bowel movement, and a few times bled but in a lesser amount. i am often fatiqued and out of breath, but i'm not sure if that is just my diabetes. i'm a 30 yr old female. does this sound like colon cancer? i dont have health insurance so im not sure what i shoud do (or what's going on)

Having a husband with Colon Cancer, I really advice you to get to a Doctor, insurance or not. Colon Cancer is one of the leading killers of both men & women. If you have a family doc, have him set you up an appointment with a loacl doc/surgeon, or Internal Med. Doc. Please do not wait. As far as the insurance, there are state agencies where you can apply for assistance, depending on your finances. I also worked as an accontant in a hospital, and usually if you come in as "Self Pay", they usually get you signed up for assistance. Again, PLEASE do not put it off. Fortunately my husband was operated on, and they were able to remove the caner, so far, so good. But, every day you worry if it will return. So, as I said just get a colonoscopy scheduled, and worry about the insurance next. IT IS AGAINST THE LAW FOR A MEDICAL FACILITY TO TURN YOU AWAY FOR NOT HAVING INSURANCE. This I know to be true. Good Luck, Don't wait. Better to find out it is nothing, then live with the worry now!

properly, i might want to get a third opinion for particular. might want to correctly be the first well being care specialist needs to get wealthy by potential of doing a $one hundred,000 colon eliminating. yet colon maximum cancers is extremely serious ~ if she has it you pick it treated. My chum change into clinically determined with it 4 months in the past ~ and had all yet a million foot of his colon bumped off and he's basically wonderful. His diagnosis change into very very undesirable yet he truly recovered properly and is playing golfing and seems tremendous.

I'm sorry to say that recently, I spoke to a person who has had colon cancer. She described much the same symptoms as you mentioned. Please go see a doctor. Even if you don't have health insurance, some hospitals have money allocated for people without means and/or they can help you apply for state funding in the form of public assistance.

Good luck.

Your are showing several signs that it might be cancer. It also could be something else. It will take going to your Dr ASAP and getting tests done to find out what the cause it. Go to a free/cheap clinic in your area.
Clay stools are NOT good, and neither is blood (black= digested blood)

Perhaps you have hemorrhoids? Even if that is the case, any time you see blood where blood is not supposed to be, like in your stool, you should definately see a doctor. Best of luck to you.
