Hello folks I'm new hear!!,Had rectal cancer, got it removed with the works ,chemo ,radiotherapy , eventually successful surgery, I was given an ileostomy which developed a melon sized hernia behind it, i was called for a video meeting with my surgeon and my collorectal nurse last Wednesday hoping to discuss corrective bowel surgery and to get hernia fixed, but received the devastating news that after a terrible year of healing, I now have secondary Cancer of the lungs my family and I are in bits, we thought we had a good run of hopefully being totally Cancer free but this news has shaken our world. I'm going for a P.E.T scan next Tuesday in Dundee, I would have preferred it in Glasgow as I'm from Falkirk and that would have been easier, but I suppose you have to take what you can get in this current situation we are all in. I'm pretty in the dark about the whole thing and finding it really hard this time around to see any light in it.
