Hi All - first post and all that.
3 weeks in from sending my FIT test back - since then have been diagnosed with rectal cancer - MRI and CT done awaiting results on Tuesday.
1 polyp was malignant and the MRI has indicated its in 3 lymph nodes - nothing yet from the CT.
I've the MDT on Tuesday and then we'll know whats occuring apparently its likely they'll start chemo first.
Just wondering what o expect its been a rollercoaster so far I dont think I've really had a chance to process it all.
Glad to be here (well kinda :-) )
