I am 37 weeks pregnant and for the past week or two I have been getting terrible pain shooting up my actual butt and into my back (sorry if tmi). I hurts more when I sit or lay down and its starting to hurt worse now that the baby is starting to drop. I know its not sciatica because that shoots down your leg and I have no leg pain, except for swelling in the ankles. I was just wondering if this is due to her laying on a nerve or if it was bad gas pain.

I’ve been plagued with Rectal bleeding over 1 month. Finally got up the nerve to go see doc, and he scheduled me for colonoscopy. Won’t know result of that until 11/14. Who wants to wait that long? My hair is growing like crazy, and I’ve lost 20lbs since 3/2007.

Are there any other physical symptoms associated with colon cancer? There are no changes in bowel habits. Do I have reason to worry?

I am 20 year old male and sometimes when i get the urge of getting a bowel movement, I sometimes get a sort of spasm like sensation coming from my rectal area…its not exactly a pain, but its a sensation that feels like its sucking in and like a needle prick like at the same time from within…the spasm lasts only like 3 seconds and once i defecate everything is fine.. Is this cause of concern or Is this just normal nerve response from the urge to defecate ?
