Hi all,
See my profile for my watch and wait journey so far after rectal cancer diagnosis in November 2018 and a clinically complete response to radiotherapy in January 2019 and since then I have been in remission.
I am recording my journey on watch and wait as I go through milestones hoping that this is helpful to others considering watch and wait or perhaps earlier on in the journey.
About 6 months ago I had an equivocal MRI, i.e. they were not quite sure whether there was cancer there or not, so they ordered another one earlier than usual and I had this yesterday and the CEA blood test too.
I just got the CEA result and it was normal and completely unchanged from 6 months ago which is great!
I should get the MRI result in about a week and will post the result on here when I get it. However I am very hopeful now that this will be clear.
However we all know that cancer is tricky and unpredictable so I don't know for sure until I get the actual MRI result.
Wish me luck!
Jogey
