Hi, I have recently had an operation to remove part of my colon after a tumour was discovered. Biopsies have revealed cancer cells in 3 of the 16 lymph nodes that were taken so I start Oxaliplatin and Capecitabine anti cancer treatment on Monday. I have to do a 3 month stint of 2 tablets a day on days 1-14 of a 21 day cycle and an IV  infusion on day 1. 

any advice would be more than helpful

  • Hi KevinK

    Welcome to the community and I'm sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with colon cancer.  I noticed that you are a member of the Bowel(colon and rectal) cancer forum.  Why not put your question into that forum to get the advice you are looking for.

    Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment.

    Best wishes
