In early 2016 I was diagnosed with colon cancer, had an operation in January to remove about 30% (plus my appendix), and had six months of chemotherapy from March to September. I then entered the Add-Aspirin clinical trial. I have been clear since then.
But in the last week I have had diarrhoea on and off for about 5 days. After two days I decided to take Imodium, starting with 2 tablets. In only a couple of hours I felt much better - and in just over 24 hours I had normal bowel movements. But the diarrhoea returned this afternoon in full force.
Although I have had occasional mild diarrhoea over the last 8 years, it has normally been just a one-off episode, but never as often as this.
Should I be worried?
