I have constant or consistent constipation. However, my motion is loose in the morning as I drink about 500 ml of water as soon as I wake up. I mildly suspect I could be having cancer of the intestine or stomach. What would be my best course of action in detecting what is wrong with my alimentary canal (if that's the correct term)?
