Just had a colonoscopy and found a 50mm bleeding tumor. Awaiting results to see if it has spread.

I'm a 65 yr old female and I,m very tearful. I feel like I'm in a dark place. I'm quite an active person but this has knocked me for six.

  • Hi  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 Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and although I've had different cancer diagnoses to you I know how scared you're probably feeling right now.

    The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the bowel cancer group as you'll then connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as you. 

    To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.

    Sending virtual (((hugs)))
