Hi this sounds familiar to me bleeding from bottom for 2 years told haemorrhoids finally insisted i.was looked at by gp who was instantly worried 5 weeks wait first colonoscopy followed quickly by ct  and mri today consultant and a surgeon had a look up there with a rigid camera cant spell proper word and took biopsies 2 weeks to wait its 60 mm and of cancerous appearance they have told me there treating it as cancer just waiting for confirmation then hopefully some sort of plan , I literally feel like the *** has dropped out of my world , not coping at all snd dont know how to get through next hour let alone fortnight, any tips would be appreciated 

Hi, I wish I could give you some tips. I am exactly the same  really struggling to get through the day. They tell you go about your normal day- make yourself busy! If only that worked.

i had biopsies taken on 3 July and told 2- 3 weeks for urgent biopsy results and should hear soon  but I already know what they will be.

My  lesion is 25mm but it is the central depression and pit type are bad and I knew when Dr and nurse asked my sister to come in and his manner and body language said it all and the chat with with colorectal nurse was far from a comfort.  According to studies it takes 10 plus years to get to 25mm and in the past 14 years I have had 5 colonoscopies - 3  since may 2022- so it has been missed which apparently also happens especially with larger  sessile lesions.

Every time I look at my son it is like being tortured thinking what will happen him- he's technically an adult but  I have brought him up on my own. 

I hope you can find a way to cope and i am so sorry I can't offer you any strategy

Have you a treatment plan yet , or even any idea what that could be , i know what you mean i was taken in that room twice with the nurse and told lthey where fairly sure it was cancer then all the paprers you take have diagnoses colorectal cancer , have to work and put a smile on my face and listen to other people’s petty problems (hairdresser) is hard
