I was diagnosed with Rectal. Cancer oct 2022 and I’m the December had Stoma operation then underwent 25 rounds of chemoradiotherapy early 2023. I had a good response and and was on watch and wait until a colonoscopy in October 2023 showed regrowth and so in January 2023 had APR with 6 rounds of Capecetabine ending in July 2023. A CT scan in June was clear and bloods taken in August were normal. I’m now devastated to learn that a biopsy of my vaginal wall showed bowel cancer cells.
I’ve not heard what will happen next but I’m having a routine CT on 16th January so hoping that ‘someone’ will be on the look out for my results.
I just feel so tearful and scared now. I’ve come through all that and now I feel I’m starting all over again.
