Hi there. Diagnosed with bowel cancer in sept. Had a it removed beginning of January recovery went well and all was removed. I know need 3 months chemo as a preventative. It’s starting next week. eling nervous and scared as you can imagine. Have got 4 cycles with 2 weeks tablets and 1 infusion. Have got a loving partner and great family and friends but still feel alone. Find it hard to talko them as just get upset so don’t like to upset them. Just after some advice.
Did you have your colonoscopy and get diagnosed in September then straight to surgery in January? Sorry the reason I’m asking the dates is because iI’m going straight to surgery with a long wait between diagnosis and treatments. x
Hi. Brief run down lol. Diagnosed in beginning of sept after a colonoscopy. Then had various scans had a laparoscopy in November then surgery was 4th jan. if you want to know anything else just ask xx
