Hi i’m a 24 year old female who has basically what feels like been fighting for her health since having my ds 2 years ago. No one would listen to my concerns and now i’m worried it may be too late, on a recent ultrasound they had an incidental finding of significant ‘free fluid near appendix region’ to which gynae then consulted a colorectoral surgeon to which i am now being referred for an urgent CT, as well as recurrent uti/kidney infections which don’t respond to antibiotics, blood in urine, severely low b12 and folate tbh so much more symptoms but everyday between exhaustion, pain and nausea i can barely lift my head off the pillow.

I don’t know what i’m aiming for here but is there any mothers with experience of bowel or bladder cancer? (Worst case scenario understandably but i know my body and somethings not right) tia X

Hi OP. I can't help but just bumping for you. There's was a thread yesterday on bladder cancer so maybe do a search for that.

Sending you all good wishes.

I am (which is a huuuge struggle) and his dad works long hours so it’s just me at home unfortunately x
