30 year old female with colon cancer symptoms. My sister has the symptoms below. Could it be colon cancer?

with your family history, she is at higher risk for developing colon cancer, and it sounds like she has? her doctor should send her to a specialist for a colonoscopy and other specialized testing.

It could be colon cancer, especially given the family history. But, I have Ulcerative Colitis, and my symptoms are the same. It could also be Chron?s, IBS (though there wouldn?t likely be blood if this one were true) or polyps. The only way to be sure will probably be to do a colonoscopy. They aren?t a lot of fun, but they get the job done and help with indentifying the problem.
Good luck to your sister! These are annoying symptoms to deal with, but she?s doing the right thing by following up with a doctor. I hope it turns out to be something easy to treat.

IBS, Colitis, Crohns, Ulcer.
thats all i could think of. make sure she has plenty of tests done because bowel conditions can be hard to diagnose because of varying symptoms.

I had colon cancer and I am in my 40?s. I had no sign except for one night I saw blood in my stool (I was on a blood thinner for a blood clot in my let. It was the firt time I saw blood and went to the ER for it. They didn?t think it was anything and they (dr) were all stocked I had stage 1 cancer. I was constipated all the time too, just went little nuggets. Please have it checked. Please read below.
Common symptom of colorectal cancer is a change in bowel habits. Symptoms include:
Having diarrhea or constipation
Feeling that your bowel does not empty completely
Finding blood (either bright red or very dark) in your stool
Finding your stools are narrower than usual
Frequently having gas pains or cramps, or feeling full or bloated
Losing weight with no known reason
Feeling very tired all the time
Having nausea or vomiting
Most often, these symptoms are not due to cancer. Other health problems can cause the same symptoms. Anyone with these symptoms should see a doctor to be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.
Usually, early cancer does not cause pain. It is important not to wait to feel pain before seeing a doctor.
I had colon cancer and only saw blood one night and went to the hospital with no other sign. Stage 1 colon cancer. All removed and taken care of. Cancer does not recognise anyone?s age, please have it check out.l
