Doc said i have constipation am convinced its cancer (left side pain & under left rib) x-ray/bloods/urine all came bk fine, would they know?

Colonoscopy: If your X-Ray was not a barium enema, a diagnosis of colon cancer has not been disproven. I don't know if your symptoms warrant an examination for colon cancer. If you do need such an examination, a competently performed colonoscopy will definitively rule out colon cancer.
