Hi, thanks for this. I was in blissful ignorance until I was looking on my NHS app as needed some proof due to cancelling flights. A letter to consultant said tumour was Early T3. No other details as not had operation yet so nodes are unknown. This was staged by my CT scan.

Crazy as I still have no bowel trouble.  Did read though it can take 15 years for a tiny polyp to develop into something quite established.  Though have no clue when this first appeared.

Cannot wait to have it removed now.

Xx

Glad you found it helpful Arial88 . 
Totally understand that . Such a relief when you get a date to remove the tumour .

My mum never had bowel issues before surgery and to be honest not that many after surgery either , after the first few weeks were over .

Hope you get a date and more info soon .

Thanks court , your mum sounds an amazing woman, was reading her story, thanks for your reply x

She was . She passed in the summer but not before she managed to reach 82 . Liked to get out every day !

She was from the best foot forward generation !
