Hi, l was diagnosed with colon cancer end of June, had my op in August, was told it was a larger tumour than they had thought and that the lymph nodes had been affected,so now have to have chemo in intravenous and tablet form for the next six months to ensure all has well and truly gone. This has been such a shock more so cos l have a great fright of anything medical, l have just had my second intro chemo and started tablets yesterday, the first session l was in a panic with the side effects, my oncologist said l shouldn't suffer any more but reading on this site at what is happening to others l am now in an even greater panic.....so very scared.
