I am really worried about getting cancer. My mum has recently been diagnosed with bowel cancer, My nan died before I was born of Cancer, so did my Grandad, My mum used to smoke so did my nan and grandad. I smoke, I’m sixteen. How likely am I too get cancer?
I only eat junk food, no fruit or veg.
I’m 5’0, and 6 stone.
so yes. How likely am i too get cancer due to family history.
thank you.
I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I developed external hemorrhoids right at the very end of my pregnancy which i know is quite common. They did seem to disappear after childbirth but i have noticed that one large one seems to return each month during my menstral cycle. Its nearly 6 months since i gave birth and whilst i think its constantly there, I think it flares up more during my period.
I know my nan suffered really badly with Hemorrhoids so i’m not sure whether they can be hereditary? Should I be worried as I do bleed bright red blood from it sometimes? I’m abit embarrassed to go to the docs but not sure whether I should be really concerned that it hasn’t dissappeared by itself although i haven’t actually tried any creams on it or anything?
Any help or advice would be really grateful ~ Thanks!
