I’m a 63 year old Mum and Grandmother. I started off with Bowel Cancer, which was diagnosed in September 2022. I had the tumour removed in November 2022 and started chemotherapy CAPOX, in January 2023. Although initially only given 6 months to live, I was classed as in remission in. August 2023. More growth found in my endometrium in March 2024. Back on chemotherapy but tablets had no affect and a spot on my right lung and enlarged lymph nodes found in my abdomen in Junes CT scan, placed back on CAPOX in July 2024. Just had CT scan and first spot had grown and another has been found, the lymph nodes are also more enlarged.
I am now due to see my Oncologist in two weeks to look at going on two different intravenous drugs, second line ones which they say they hope to hold the cancer where it is if not possibly shrink them.
