A bit scared

Hi KarenMB I could see on the screen during the colonoscopy that something was not right - I think my exact sedated words were ‘ooh that doesn’t look very good’. Afterwards they took me into a room with my hubby and said they were 99% sure it was a cancerous tumour and explained what samples they’d taken and what would happen next. The biopsy results obviously confirmed it 100% but they do this day in day out so know what’s they’re looking at.

It’s natural to be scared but you need to know for certain what you’re dealing with then you can decide your next steps from there

Sending a big hug and please let us know how you get on?

Take care

Thank you Karen x

Hi KarenMB,

I was told during my colonoscopy and saw the cancer, as they tattoo it! Like Karen says the biopsy will give them a definitive diagnosis but they know what they are looking.

Hope all goes well and it is good new.

Hi Karen. They have discovered my lifelong constipation is due to a longer than usual bowel. The blood and fit test score of 144 likely from haemorrhoids. They removed 2 polyps for biopsy but he’s not concerned as no cancer visible. CAT scan results weren’t available.I need more tests to find out what the lump and pain are lower right abdomen which has flared up a treat overnight. Could be from the hysterectomy last August. 
Thank you so much for all your information .
sending love to all of you here on this forum. You’re the most amazing and caring people. Xxxx

Oh that is good news KarenMB and thanks for the update - it really helps others going through the same tests. Hope the lump and pain are quickly sorted and you can have a nice treat today to celebrate 

Take care
