Colon cancer

Hi I'm new to the group.

Diagnosed colon cancer, had surgery in September. Currently 4/8 cycle of oxaliplatin and Capecitabine. Anyone else in a similar position.

Take care,

  • Hi Jane 

    so sorry you have had this diagnosis.  I hope you are able to find strength and make a full recovery.

    fron someone like myself who is concerned about having the same, what symptoms would you look out for that are red flags. 

    thank you in advance
