Symptoms are not reliable in staging colon cancer, some cases are identified in late stages with no or minimal symptoms, while many symptoms common in colon cancer are due to different other medical conditions.

Agree with Dr. P. Symptoms are not a reliable way to detect colon cancer. Symptoms vary by location of tumor. Visit this site for info: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/colon-cancer/symptoms-causes/syc-20353669
