Question: I saw my Gastroenterologist regarding long term constipation. A number of colonoscopyS all showed clear. Recently I went to see him. My 10 year follow up is due oct 2020. I had an xray of my abdomen. The radiologist said there is a suggestion of possible soft tissue density exerting mass effect on the more medial air-filled air-filled bowl. I can feel the mass pushing slightly through my skin of my stomach , slightly lower than my belly botton. I have had two fatty lipomas removed in the last ten years. Internist thinks its another fatty lipoma . It is at the same level as the top of my pelvis -about 5 o6 six inches from the very right side of my pelvis. I had the catscan and the radiologist said 'a possible abnormality was seen in the right mid abdominal laterally . This corresponding to the ascending colon on the current CT scan. There is no evidence of mass or other abnormality in this region. - SINCE THEN, I have sen my GI Dr who says see a dermatologist. He says -probably a lipoma but it may be attached to bone and it should be left alone. See a surgeon. Two surgeons say its a Dermatologist issue. MY internist felt the bulge and just asked if it is getting bigger. MY GI DR does not seem to be concerned and does not think its affecting my bowl since it did not show on
Cat Scan. I still have constipation problems. I DO NOT KNOW HOW/ WHO I should see to determine if it is pushing on my bowl. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. CONSTIPATION is stilla problem.

Thanks. what are tumor makers.
