Cancer recurrence.

Hi

I know I'm probably paranoid but I can't get it out of my head that I have microscopic cancer growing inside me.

In 2024 I had my rectum removed as my cancer had spread to a lymph node. I had robotic surgery and formation of a temporary ileostomy. It was reversed about 7 months after.

I really had to fight for my surgery and feel that precious time was lost, 2 years in fact. If I'd had surgery in the beginning which was my wish, it may not have spread to my lymph nodes. Where else has it spread. Of course I have CT scans but they're not infallible.

Does anyone have similar fears..

Kind regards
