FREE FLUID IN PELVIS WITH THICKENING OF RECTOSIGMOID WITH A WEIGHTLOSS MEANS YOU HAVE A SERIOUS DISEASE IN THE ABDOMAN. FREE FLUID WITHTHIS KIND OF FEATURES OCCURS IN CANCERS OF ABDOMAN, ABDOMINAL T.B., PELVIC ABSCESS, AND PID, ENDOMETRIOSIS IN FEMALES AND SOME OTHER RARER CAUSES BUT MALIGNANCY AND T.B. NEED TO BE RULED OUT FIRST.
SO DON'T THINK OF COLONOSCOPY PLAESE UNDERGO IT ASAP- IF YOUR CLINICIAN ASKS FOR BIOPSY AGREE FOR IT OUTRIGHTLY.
HERE DELAY MAY MEAN DEATH.
