Has anyone had loose stools and cholicky pain in the abdomenand what have they taken to ease the pain
yes..dont forget you guts have been messed about with a lot....still mention it to your nurse spcoalist though
yes winst, 4 years ago now! chemo is nothing to worry about, its not very nice but youll easy do it
HI winst i was stage 3a... have had your staging?, dont worry no question is too personal if it helps, before mu op my stools were a bit thin with blood, after my op they were all colours, including very black, that was from the blood where they did the bowel resection soon after they settled down to " normal "
If i may it sounds like you are understandably very worried, I was too and I went to the drs and they gave me some anti anxiety medication which helped, it may help you too?
