Hi, on April 24th 2024 I was diagnosed with colon cancer. I had a colon resection opp, but didn't need a colostomy bag nor chemotherapy. I had lots of pain from the beginning, even when I was on the ward, and struggled to get out of bed while on the ward. I was later told by one of the colonoscopy nurses I had a hernia, but she didn't really explain. I complained each and everytime I attended a nurse visit. Later I visited my GP, who said that I did indeed have a hernia. I requested a second opinion regarding this hernia, and attended another hospital, where an ultrasound was carried out, which verified I had a large umbilical hernia, but at the time simply because I had soreness in the area of the scar, and as it meant reopening the scar I chose not to have it. I have now chosen to attend a different hospital to complete my cancer care treatment, I am due for a telephone call from the colonoscopy nurse from my chosen hospital. My abdomen is still swollen, and I still cant fit into my previous clothes that I wore before my opp. I feel that the feeling in my stomach, is responsible for my BP increasing and my GP is prescribing a drug to reduce it. I havent a clue what I should do, as I feel this is only masking a symptom. Two weeks ago I sent for and recieved a fitness test, which I did and returned if, good news for me was it was clear. I was just wondering has anyone else had a problem like this
