Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to hear that you have rectal cancer and that you're finding it difficult to find the right group to join.
To look at the different groups click 'Groups', which you should see at the top of your screen, then choose 'cancer types' on the next page. You can then scroll through the groups where you should see bowel (colon and rectum) cancer.
However, to save you doing that you can click on the link I've created which will take you directly to that group. To join choose 'join this group' on the page that opens and you can then introduce yourself and post questions after selecting 'start a discussion' and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
When you have a minute it would be really useful if could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
