Hello all. Ive been having these symptoms and have a dr appointment next wednesday. These symptoms have started/progressed for last 6 weeks. A little about me i am 33 years old, 5'3", i weigh 180 (starting weight 6 weeks ago weighed 220). I had my gallbladder removed about 8 years ago.I have for most part been someone who had hard time passing bowels i would sometimes go 2-3 days without going. I would say maybe about past year it got somewhat differnt i would get urge around 8pm and sometimes nothing would happen.So about 6 weeks ago it started. I have abdominal pain, has been there everyday, some days a lot worse. I have had loose stools EVERYDAY, i go around 4-5 times a day. If i eat ANYTHING it is coming out within 1 hour, sometimes even with water. More symptoms below-ive had very faint yellow tint to my eyes. People have said i look pale- fatigue- slight raspy voice, slight coughing past couple days- had a couple black tary stools in the begginging. Had blood when i wiped the other day- jard to swallow pills- vomiting more often- orangish colored stool- greasy looking stool that floats (usually watery stool)- dark urine- heartburn feeling- feeling like i get winded when minimal effort- no longer snore at night, breathing seems slower- and again have not been able to have any food in past 6 weeks-bruise easilyI know noone here can diagnos me, but i seem to have all symptoms. What were yours or a loved ones symptoms when they were diagnosed.

Hi @fcancer07 My goodness, you sure have a list of some serious symptoms which definitely need attention and a diagnosis. I noticed you posted in the pancreatic cancer group. Have you previously been diagnosed with this or is this a suspicion on your part?
I hope you don’t mind my asking but will your appointment next week be the first time you’ve seen a doctor since all these symptoms started?

I was reading your post and thought "Gee that sounds way familiar.. years ago back when I was 19 years old I started having pretty much all the same things that you have going on. it got so bad that I could not even drink water without severe pain and it would go straight through me. I lost a lot of weight and got to the point where I was constantly bleeding when I would use the bathroom and just got really bad until I finally went to the doctor and I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. maybe it's something you should think about being tested for also if you still aren't sure what's going on.
