as a cancer survivor I would like to add that one of the tragedies with young people is that all too often they ignore symptoms for too long. I urge you to listen to your body and to take a proactive approach to your health. if something doesn't seem right and a doctor isn't taking you seriously, it's good to push for answers. I was very fortunate that my GP sent me for a proactive X-ray to check something out.
