Hello. I am a 48 yr old female who was diagnosed with bowel cancer in July and had a bowel section at the end of August.
it’s been 3 weeks since my surgery and I have pain in my groin area. Just below where you would have a c-section. A but like period pain. I can also feel two lumps which I assume is the resection bowel. Is this familiar to anyone?
I have yet to get results back from Drs to confirm that cancer is gone or if further treatment is needed.
Hi Angelous
I wanted to just say hello , others will be along that have had similar.
I had a LAR with stoma ( Ileostomy) so I’m sorry I haven’t got lots of experience with your operation
I have a c section scar plus key hole marks in various places. Oh and a small camera scar in my naval for the camera There’s others but that’s enough for now I was on heavy duty pain relief Tramadol slow release which my GP sorted and I found it really belt for my rest and moving about
I hope that you have pain meds to control your pain. If you’re concerned about the pain please phone your colorectal nurses they will help with that
Take care
Ann
Hi pajot
Do you know what operation you are having? Sometimes it’s reassuring to chat to others that have had the same
Best wishes
Ann
