Hi, ive been having diarroea(loose stool, but formed, not liquid) alternating with constipation(hard little stools), for the last 6 months. No change in frequency, Bowel movement everyday, sometimes mucus, (mainly in constipation), but never blood and no weight loss could this be bowel cancer, or something like IBS
