I am a roller coaster enthusiast and I absolutely LOVE 💕 that you got to go to ride the coasters at Cedar Park!!! That's exactly something I would do if I ever get diagnosed with cancer I promise. God Bless You

Thanks for sharing this experience with us. Makes us not to fear the unknown so much.

thank you for sharing this!!

God bless you...thank you for sharing.. praise God he is with us💙🙏🕊

You're an incredibly strong young lady and I'm glad you are in good spirits and health. Your videos are giving a lot of us greater incite as to the process. It also helps not feeling so alone. Thanks for sharing!

These videos are absolutely invaluable to so many people Jelena. Whether they are going through it themselves or are supporting someone who is going through this worrying journey, your very generous decision to share so much detail will no doubt give more help than you can imagine. I say this not because I have had it myself although I am about to go for my next colonoscopy as we have a genetic marker for bowel cancer and I need regular check ups but because I relied heavily on KZfaq channels such as yours during 2020 whilst I was caring for my beautiful mother as she had terminal cancer of her sinuses. The drs can give you information but it really doesn’t compare to another patient’s perspective. Hopefully I never have to refer back to your channel for advice for myself but I do have you saved for that very reason because you have such clear, concise but mostly non-scary information. Wishing you a fabulous, healthy, happy lifetime ahead for you and your family. Much love from Brisbane Australia, Amanda ❤️xx

Wow you are an amazing story teller. So well organized with the details

I watched this video of yours and the one before talking about your symptoms and you are such a joy to listen to and your facial expressions are the best. I hope you’re doing well. God bless.

Thanks for sharing your video you are amazing !

Well you’ve got probably the best videos about this type of cancer, and a whole KZfaq! I’m always searching for information from patients stories of what they went through just exactly like you explained not from me hospital not from a cancer center a person a survivor a cancer patient their true own stories that they record and put on KZfaq! That’s what I want to hear that’s what we need more of an KZfaq. So thank you thank you thank you Much for posting your personal story. I knew if I kept searching I would find a personal story somewhere LOL So by listening to your story and researching for cancer patient stories, I don’t have cancer or that I know of. But I know somethings going on and it seems to be matching most of the symptoms that match Colon rectal bowl Cancer in ovarian cancer. Cancer is huge in our family everybody had cancer from every cancer you can think of breast bowel stomach prostate lung bladder and melanomas cancer. Are all spread out through both sides of my family. Including my immediate family! Do you know what the real stickler is here? My husband didn’t have any cancer on either side of his family and not in his immediate family. But yet he passed away not long ago, pancreatic cancer. Thank you for this information. I hope more people post personal videos from their own home not linked to cancer centers etc., their own stories, with symptoms symptoms.

Hi, I just got back from a colonoscopy and endoscopy. The results were completely normal. I have had blood in my rectum, unexplained anemia, severe stomach pain, constipation and based on all my Google findings, diagnosed myself with advance colon cancer. They found Nothing, not even a benign polyp. I wanted to share this because I couldn’t find enough of these types of posts when I was looking for answers myself. Sometimes the research we do drives us completely bonkers, wasting hours and days and even weeks assuming the absolute worst! There are soooo many other explanations for symptoms than the worst case scenarios & statistically, it is more likely NOT to have cancer than to have it🙌🏼 Unfortunately, I know this is NOT everyone’s experience and people are diagnosed everyday and have to walk the hard battle out but I wanted to be a voice of hope in the self diagnosis process. Get tested. Don’t ignore symptoms. But don’t assume❤️

Even though I know you are perfectly fine now, listening to your experience makes my heart break. Luv u Cuz

God bless you. Really appreciate your testimony 🙏 🙌

God bless you for recovering from this terrible illness. My mother is going through it and I am living through it because of her. I can hear and see all her symptoms. It is a dreaded disease...Stay strong angel....

Love your video. If I had stomach issues for a bit too. But it was due to my anxiety and I also have depression. They said that with my anxiety it messes with my stomach… I started to drink more celery juice and change my diet to help my anxiety which helped my stomach.

Thank you for sharing

I had no symptoms....nothing...no pain, no bleeding, but had iron deficiency anemia that my primary care doctor blew off, saying if I wanted to know the cause, to go to a specialist. I did find a specialist and now I have no left colon. I appreciated your video on Xeloda, as I am just beginning that this week and am super terrified.

blessings 💕

Querida Jelena admiro tu valor y entereza al hablar de algo tan duro como el cancer yo estoy a la espera de un examen sigmoidoscopy ya me habían hecho una endoscopia en el 2016 por una hinchazón de mi estómago indigestión y ardor en el estómago como en ese tiempo no tenía estreñimiento no sospecharon de cancer en el colon, me dijeron que mi vesícula está llena de piedras me la sacaron pero mi síntomas no mejoraron hasta que en noviembre de el año pasado mis heces en empezaron a cambiar y a ponerse muy delgadas y en pedacitos y a sufrir de estreñimiento desde hace un mes tengo un dolor muy fuerte en el estómago estoy aterrada por que mi estómago está muy inflamado solo pido a Dios que me de valor para recibir una mala noticia que Dios te de muchos años de vida!

Thanks for sharing. I think this is being read.

Hello I hope youre doing well. I think it’s important to realize anyone can get any disease any age. Percentages mean nothings its either possible or its not. Btw Ive had 3 “ rare” conditions so far less than 1% so theres that lol. Sending blessings to everyone watching 🙏.

Wow. I just had my colonascopy and found obstruction. Dr did not confirm what it is but it's large. Next step ct dr visit and schedule testing. Wish me luck. I hope you are doing well today.

Thank you

May I suggest during your colonoscopy prep, that you get large extra absorbent disposable pads and adult disposable pullups.

Gives me hope for my sister she was same as you they found tumour and could not get the camera past it. Nurse told her it was cancer she went for scan today to see if it has spread.

Weight loss blood in stool thin runny stools polyp removed low grade dysplasia and discharge no follow up. God is good led me here

Your videos are awesome. I'm a stage 3 rectal cancer survivor of 2 years. Have you considered doing a LARS video?

😘😘 I like your style 😍😍

Any back pain ? Thanks for sharing the video with me . Very helpful and very reassuring.

You're one cool, tough chick.

In Canada they give you a scrip for Purg-Odan. 2 packs. Good gawd. I got my script for my colonoscopy and 2 days before my surgery date.. I got a positive pregnancy test. So here I am 2 years later still having the runs 8 to 10 times a day. I have 6 children under 12yo. I am basically going to go until I drop at this point. 😶

I’m watching this because for the last few years I’ve experienced very similar symptoms but have put off talking to my doctor because I just figured I was getting older and menopause and all that. Had enough blood in my stool to scare me into going. My colonoscopy is next week but GI wanted me to be prepared for what she feels is a very probable scenario. It’s taken 3 weeks to even get in for a colonoscopy. I scared shitless (pun very much intended). But your video has given me some hope. Thank you.

My case was rather harrowing. I first started getting major abdominal pains almost as if it was food poisoning then it would subside. That followed up like you had mentioned bloody stools with mucus. The blood was blackish red in colour. There was a lot of blood and getting worse. Then came the pencil like stools then nothing at all. I went 23 days without a bowel movement and lost 55 lbs in 5 and a half months. Had gone to emergency four times before they found out it was cancer. I figured it out awhile back myself but needed confirmation. This was eight and a half years ago and I've had major digestive issues since and had to figure out on my own how to relieve it because the medical system was either too damn stupid or they just don't care. I'm guessing both. Other than the surgery I credit myself on fixing most of my problems since.

I have all symptoms that you described in previous other videos, seen my doctor, who refeered me to a GI for a endoscopy and colosxopy, then went to the emergency where they did some blood and urine test AND A CT SCAN and according to the doctor at the hospital everything was ok… but im super worried and extremelly anxious about the endoscopy and coloscopy coming up sunday.

With colon issues and if you go to the emergency room all they do they really don't even check you out anymore which I was horrified by

See one of the biggest issues with a lot of people and why we lose a lot of people is because Hardwell essay half the population doesn't have health insurance and the free clinics really don't help

Very interesting. You could be a writer. I was glued to your eyes as you told your journey. Most of talk vidéo 's bore me to death but your video's are entirely the oposite. Also I have allot of bowel problems and was treated very poorly by the doctor during my painful colon esame. 9:46

I was told almost like you were in the hospital after colonoscopy. She said she found a mass close to my ilyium, she would not say cancer in front of me but she told my wife what she thought she had found she said she personaly called lab for rush. I found out less than 24 hours later it was positive for cancer. Adenocarcinoma. When I told my wife she said she already knew. The Dr had came out before I woke up and told her she found a mass and that she couldn't make the diagnoses till labs came back.

Yup. And this video furthers the fact that she got extremely good medical care and that everything was expedited. It took 4 years of abnormal paps before doctors would get a biopsy and order a copolscopy for me... and it was scheduled 4 months down the line once they did. It must be nice for doctors to RUSH you in for procedures and RUSH your samples in for confirmation. If most people were treated this way - many more would recover from these diseases and not die or suffer endlessly before getting diagnosed

The fact of the matter is if you don't have the money for the health insurance though they really don't want to help you out with seeing someone that can help you out

I'm done with colonoscopy,i've a ulcers in my rectum and sigmoid colon. Biospy shows nothing, could u please sort this..

I'm almost 30. I need to get checked. The bleeding started 11 years ago. I didn't do anything. Now I have debilitating cramps in the same 2 spots every time it happens. Half the week I'm constipated the other half its diarrhea. The bleeding happens atheist once a week. I pass in a squatting position and don't push at all even when I'm constipated. When the bleeding started at 18 I had a colonoscopy done. The doctor told me he found polups but said it probably wasn't a problem and the state wouldn't pay for any more medical procedures for me considering I was getting out of prison a month later. I'm terrified to go get tested. I've just been assuming i have chrons. I've been hospitalized twice in the last year due to passing blood from both ends during flare up(doctors said I have no bowel sounds in those 2 problem spots. I dont have insurance or money to see a doctor and doctors here in Florida tend to be pretty heartless, if you can't pay they'll sue.

Great to hear your doing okay. It made my day!! Cedar Point? AWESOME place! 🎢

If you do a search term on colorectal cancer it's all medical hospitals doctors etc. and you are the only private channel that pops up with the doctors and hospitals... And that's how I found you

I’m in San Antonio and I am having these issues. I have hpv and I don’t have insurance. I went to emergency room and they tested my blood so they say but felt like they didn’t want to help me diagnose me. They just referred me to gastrointestinal doctor but I can’t afford it right now. I just want to know what’s wrong with me but it seems no one wants to help.

Did you have a difficulty to poo, I mean it might take you several hours to having poo process and mostly even after that long hours you will still feel not complete? Were your stools look like ribbon or such?

Where do we go to see all your videos in the order in which they were uploaded? I'm having a difficult time locating all of them and in what order to watch them they seem to be scattered all over the place.

I believe (from what I've read) in the UK they do the colonoscopy whilst you're awake, which I can only imagine probably isn't very comfortable!

Thanks for sharing. Did you have any pain in the rectum?

Hello. Prior to your cancer diagnosis, did you ever have a stool test for colon cancer or any type of cancer test?

Hi, did you have to be put under anesthesia, or did you choose?

Did you lose any weight before finding out the diagnosis? I have muscle weight loss. Thin stool and rectum spams that I can feel on my vg part as well

What do you do if yout dr. have already found colon and rectal pre cancerous polyps, and you have family history and are at high risk, but there is no one to take you or take you home?

Did u do a ct scan for ur abdominal area? Or where was the ct scan

The doctors found a nodule outside of my colon. Nobody has actually done a biopsy yet and I can't get in for one for an entire year. Psychologically it's hell. My doctor keeps telling me not to worry because all the specialists who've seen my results say it looks like endometriosis, except for one. She suggested a C125 test which came out as 51. My twin sister just died of cancer in August so I'm frighteneed. Having to wait full year just to find out what's going on is appalling. I'm actually thinking of going abroad for a biopsy since everything is so slow here.

❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

I’m 26 & getting a colonoscopy soon. Been have numerous of the symptoms for 2 years. I hope I don’t have it. But I also hope I can figure out what’s wrong 🥺

What about your blood tests did they show anything that was indicative of cancer?

Can a 15 year old have colon cancer? I didn't experience having bloody stool nor any type of pain but my bowel habits suddenly changed a bit almost a month ago, my stool became a bit thinner and i don't know if i am constantly feeling like i have an urge to have a bowel movement, maybe it's psychological, idk. I want to go to doctor for a check but my mom basically says i'm talking shit. What should i do?

Why didn’t they give you Suprep?

Let's make this clear when she says colon...your intestine is your colon larger and small intestine

Im going through the farting blood at the moment… Making me feel like crap

That this thing caught in sonography 🤔

Because you go to the emergency room you say oh I pooped blood and they're like oh what did you do this last week what did you eat what did you drink

what stage were u at diagnosis

And I still have reproductive organs and I can still get pregnant I'm 46 I still have a period

The amount of liquids you were drinking it makes me wonder if that's one-size-fits-all. I'd think a smaller thin woman would have to drink less than a large overweight man.

I'm like can't you do some tests will know we don't just do tests while I'm telling you can you please do tests will you don't have insurance this stuff is crap they don't give a shit unless you have money😢

I'm 19 years old. There's a blood in my stool it's very red and my stool color is yellow. I went to a doctor and she give me medicine and after 2-3 days of taking it, my stool back to normal there's no blood present. Then last November 5 that night I ate beef meat for dinner then November 6 in the morning my poop is very hard then after that I got constipated and I always fart. My rectum is in pain. I don't know what to do. I'm so scared.

I thought this was going to be about yr Symptoms. ?..???

Symptoms??

Why did probiotics make your stomach worse 🤔

I bet that last day of school for your daughter was so hard for you. 😓

Unless you have reproductive organ organs and you're young and you still get

The way she tell this Story sounds more of re-anactment of something that happened for real to her - super weird.

God i took a normal.dose of mirilax 1x and it made.me freezing cold and sick.

Some of the doctors are freaking psychopaths I swear

I hate the prep. It made me vomit and I just stayed in the bathroom all nite. I

Are you taking a baby aspirin now?

You’re really cute good thing haha

you waste to much time talking about your prep and descriptions. we want to know the results of your colonoscopy not why you had it (we already know that!)

Stop cutting and stopping your video. It’s annoying! Sorry

Wouldn't be so bad to listen to if she wasn't so over the top and dramatic in her speech, perhaps just talk in a normal convo instead of capitalising on your bad experience

hey did you have issues where your abs felt weak or one side wouldn’t contract as strongly as the other side ?
