Hi I was diagnosed with colon cancer advanced stage 3 last april, under went surgery for stoma as tumour was large and obstructing the colon, then had radiotherapy 8 sessions and then chemotherapy 6 cycles, in December had surgery to remove the tumour which they said was successful. However had complications from surgery aroma was changed to an ilostomy bag and have also go a hernia behind the aroma which causes sever pain after I eat. Surgeon decided that ilostomy needs to be reversed as hernia is not healing g so I'm on a partial liquid diet awaiting scans to see if surgery to reverse is viable. Any way they did a Sigmoidoscopy in March and took biopsies which have come back as abnormal cells. Nurse tells me they are not certain what it is and are going to repeat the Sigmoidoscopy as well as do a PETscan. 

I never really celebrated being "cancer free" as I was in a lot of pain due to complications from the surgery and know suspect that I may not actually be cancer free, having researched it's most likely that some abnormal cells have been left behind as opposed to cancer coming back, if you know what I mean. Just not clear what it means ..... Feeling rather lost if I'm honest.
