Just got the diagnosis and will begin the scans and the chemo radiation therapy. I don’t know the state, found in routine colonoscopy and came as a surprise to everyone after a biopsy.
Hi Ewagirl and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm sorry to read that you've been unexpectedly diagnosed with anal cancer after a routine colonoscopy.
As the online community is divided into different support groups, I'm going to recommend that you join the anal cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.

It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and proposed treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select '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.
