  It infuriates me that young people, especially women, so often get gaslit by doctors although they are severely ill.

  My son died of this last year, He was 43, when He went to our former uselss doctor over symptoms, she said He was too young and not to worry about it, I will never forgive her.

  There are so many symptoms that can mean everything or nothing. Or just NO symptoms at all. But I think blood in the stool AND extreme fatigue AND pain should be alarming.

  You have to be your own advocate. Push for tests, lie and say you have cancer in your family. Anything to get action!

  Only word I have is NEVER LET BLEEDING GO WITHOUT DR Checking ASAP! THE FIRST TIME IS YOUR WARNING!! Even if hemorrhoids, it needs help. I know! I had cancer and surgery if 2/2 of my colon removed. I caught it early. No chemo/radiation. I was so glad I went right away. Don't let Dr make light of it. Praying for you all.❤

  Doctors continuing to say some people are too young to have colon cancer needs to stop. My mom beat colon cancer at 47 and my friend died from it at 35 after a 2 year fight.

  The consensus watching these videos: There is NO AGE LIMITATION for colon cancer ANYMORE. Doctors & insurance companies need to COMPLETELY change their viewpoint on the possibility & screening for colon cancer no matter the age. So many very young people are being diagnosed & often advanced due to the dated mindset. It’s no longer true 45 and up.

  Don't these doctors update their knowledge after graduating? There are many studies that already point to a growing number of these cases in young people. They assume you don't have a serious illness based on just one factor. I'm experiencing symptoms and very scared. I'm from Brazil and we have a public health system, but the doctors tell me it's anxiety. I had to beg for a colonoscopy; they also said I'm too young and have no risk factors. This video is very important! Root for me! I'm rooting for you!
