Hello Welcome to Health Care Magic. 3 week diarrhea can not be a factor that suggest colon cancer. it can be dysentry, inflammatory colitis. you need to go for further evaluation. take antibiotics plus antihelminthics to get rid of infection. and in patient of AIDS, also there is history of long lasting diarrhea.
Hope this information helps you. Best wishes.
