Doctors don’t guess or should not guess. You are doing the right thing- colonoscopy. My suspicion is that that you have food poisoning. Good luck.

Colonoscopy should settle the issue of cancer. For constipation - You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods. Consult this site for fiber foods. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/high-fiber-foods/art-20050948
