Hi shloyme The honest answer is I don’t know. It may depend on how certain they are that they got all the cancerous polyp away - if they suspect that some still remains then they may recommend surgery to remove the rest of it? I’m afraid you’ll have to wait and see what the surgeon recommends x

Sorry to hear that. When you meet with the surgeon, I'm sure you will get much more clarity, although I appreciate it must be hard to wait. 

sending you good wishes. 

If I have surgery will I need to have chemotherapy and for how long

That depends on what the histology report shows. If you do have surgery then the area they remove is sent to the lab for testing and if any traces of cancer are found outside of the tumour eg in lymph nodes then they may suggest mop up chemo. It could be from 3-6 months depending on the circumstances or there may be no chemo needed at all.

Your CT scan shows no spread to other organs which is good so try not to think about the what ifs and focus on looking after yourself and your health and fitness
