Hi, I’m usually on another forum, breast cancer, 6 years down the line and doing well. Just undergone first stage of reconstruction of my breast and recovering when I was called for a routine colonoscopy. I have IBD since my 20s but over the last 20 years have managed with little or no medication.
So yesterday I had my colonoscopy, and a number of small polyps were spotted and removed. The last one found was right at the end of my colon next to my rectum and was highlighted as ‘at least highly dysplastic’ - when he came to talk to me….reading in between the lines….he believes it’s cancer. Urgent mri and rush of histology of biopsies. I know from the whole breast cancer thing (see profile) that things are never quite what they seem and information is sometimes at a need to know level. I’m struggling to process what’s going on. When I was diagnosed with BC I went into meltdown and have been on ‘helpful’ medication ever since…
So now I wait…I just wanted to dump my thoughts somewhere….so thank you!
