I'd want to ask a few questions about colon cancer. My brother is a colon cancer patient and is undergoing chemotherapy. I'd appreciate it if you could let me know if nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and chest pain are usual symptoms.

Hello sir, I was diagnosed with an eye tumour last year and operated it. After 7 months of surgery, yesterday again I was diagnosed with a tumor in my neck. I am very much worried now. Why this is happening with me. Is there any chance to be cancer now?

Male | 59

Eye tumor is a very vague term. Oncologist will have to know exact diagnosis, current disease staging should be done by a radiological imaging like CT scan or PET-CT scan. A repeat biopsy can be done to confirm the diagnosis.

If you suspect skin cancer, consult a dermatologist. Monitor any changes in moles or spots using the ABCDE rule. Take photos for documentation and avoid self diagnosis.

Bloating can arise from various factors, including digestive issues or hormonal changes. The elevated LDH and the CEA levels are significant, but it's crucial to interpret these in the context of your overall health and symptoms. Consult your physician for a comprehensive evaluation and discuss the necessity of a biopsy based on your specific situation. It's essential to have a supportive team guiding your care. Remember, communication with your healthcare provider is key to navigating this journey effectively.
