New and really confused

Hi,

My mother has been in hosital for 1 week and a day now and has had 2 biopsies done through a colonoscopy and both have come back inconclusive but the drs are sure that she has cancer but at this point they have yet to figure out what kind. They orginally said rectal cancer but now my mom thinks maybe stomack cancer??

Are there any other ways to find out what kinda cancer it is without her having to have surgery tommorrow?What are the possibilites??

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this
