Bowel cancer & throat cancer

Hi Netti and a warm welcome to the bowel page. I think that’s a question you would have to ask his consultant to be honest? I had radiotherapy as part of my treatment for rectal cancer and it continues working for several weeks after the actual treatment has stopped which may have a bearing on the timescale. I notice in another post you mention that the tumour is in the large bowel? If this is the case then surgery would probably be the first option without the need for a stoma?

It sounds like you are going to have a tough few months ahead but please keep posting and we’ll be happy to help and support you both through this

Take care
