djlamantia	Some warning signs....abdominal/rectal pain, bleeding, persistent diarrhea or constipation, unexplained weight loss. The most definitive test though would be to have a colonoscopy and biopsy taken. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

superstar68	Hi, my mum had colon cancer, and her first symptoms was rectal bleeding and abdominal pain,she went to the doctors and had a barium and a colonoscopy done, and that is when they found the tumour. She went to the doctors really soon when having these symptoms but she had already secondaries in the liver. So I would recommend if you feel that something is not right go to the doctor's. My mum sadly passed away 7 months ago but this does not mean that every body dies of colon cancer, every person is diferent. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

goldensparkler61	From what I understand there are no symptoms to colon cancer that is why it is so bad. However, if you have any bleeding out of your butt you need to go to the doctor. There could be cancer or other serious conditions. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

way_2_short84	The bowel movements of someone with colon cancer are very thin. This is caused by a tumor (cancerous or not) in the rectum. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

MrsG	Blood in the stool would be one. It could mean a lot of different things so the best thing to do is see your doctor for a check up and why wait for the symptom? If you are of age get your colon checked. It is pain less and well worth it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
