Re: Return of colon cancer

[Guest guest]

Hi Sonya, I had a reoccurance. I had no symphtoms at all other then a

complete blockage where I was vomiting green bile. They did an

emergency surgery and found that scar tissue had twisted my intenstine.

Wrapped in the scar tissue they found a bean size cancerous nodule.

Removed it and have been fine for now.

I am sure others here will also post and tell you their stories.

Glad you are two years into remission. Are you having any sypthoms???

I have not had any symptoms. The only thing that has been bothering me

is I have been having a lot of pain where they removed the tumor and a

piece of my colon. It has been bothering me a great deal. Cancer dr

said it may just be scar tissue rubbing. Going to surgeon today for 6

month checkup and going to talk to him about it. Also been having

problems with VAD so hoping he will remove it. The pain where they

removed the tumor though i can't even lay on stomach because if i do i

have to bend to walk for a few min after i get up due to the pain.

Thank you for responding to me. I would love anyones input on this. It

might have been 2 years but still things are kind of new to me on this

subject especially the chances of returning.

Thanks

Sonya
