Hi. I have stage 4 recurrent bowel cancer after 10 years in remission. Does anyone know what treatment I am likely to be offered if any.

Hello cath04
I was sorry to read about the recent news that you were given. It's understandable that you will have a lot of questions at the moment.
We have some information on our website about treatment for advanced bowel cancer which you may find helpful to read through but I'd also encourage you to give our team of nruses a call and chat things through with them. I'm sure they will be happy to offer any information and advice they can and help you think about some of the questions you may want to ask at your next Oncology appointment. I know that many of our members have found them to be very helpful. If you'd like to speak with them they're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040.
Keep in touch Cath and let us know how you're getting on.
Best wishes,

Hi Jenn,
Thank you. My biggest concern was that I'm having radiotherapy for 5 days starting on Monday, but my next oncologist appointment is not until 25th November!
