virus in me (herpies virus) and my bowel habbits have changed. In 2005 I had lots of blood in my diarea. Now I have mucus I am passing out all the time. I was just reading up on bowel cancer and cancer of the Anus came up. I have all the sypmtoms of that. I never even thought of cancer of the anus as I have never heard of it before. I am female of 38. My bowel motion has changed 180 degrees and my Feritin is depleted for no reason as I eat well, so I do not understand it. I hve a small lump in my anus and I am itching all the time 24/7 and the itchingness has spread to inside of me as well non stop. This is driving me crazy. I cannot stand it. My blood tests were all normal expect for my Ferritin. I do not have gastro as I was checked for that, and I have no infection or bug as I was checked for that too. I have a need to go to the toilet so much more frequently and when I do I pass stools that are so soft and mucusy all the time. I have a feeling I have cancer of the anus,
and not bowel cancer as I thought. It is all finaly coming together for me now. All the symptoms I have been getting for over 2 years now, this makes sence. I heard that if you have the HPV virus it makes you more prone to it, as I have had the HPV in by body for a few years now. I am itching all the time and this has been going on for awile now. I am finaly getting to the bottom of this. The lump I am going to have investigated. Help I am scared. I not afraid of death as I know where I am going just the process. Do you know anyone with this disease or have you got it or had it? It is a rare desease, but a cancer never the less, and anyone can get it.
