Currently having chemo for colon cancer, had right part of bowel removed along with ovaries, appendix and close by lymph nodes. All contained cancer. Lymph nodes in my peritoneal area are now of concern. Battling on though!!! So I have a question about hemoroids..... Can you use Ansol cream while having chemo? I'm eating well and trying to keep it as healthy as I can but obviously this means more trips to the loo. I keep meaning to ask at my appointments but it all gets forgotten once I am in the room. Thank you in advance
