Hi nrc and welcome to the forum.

Great news on completing your 6 weeks of chemo radiation. No wonder you're feeling exhausted! 

I had 25 sessions of chemo radiation with a view to trying to shrink the bowel tumour. It did reduce it a small amount and I went on to have surgery to remove the tumour. I now have an ileostomy and I've lived it with it for nearly 2 and half years. I had 'belt and braces' chemo after the surgery, but was intolerant to it, so that was stopped. Unfortunately, a follow up scan showed liver mets, but I've had surgery for that. 

I already had life insurance cover in place, but ironically, had thought about increasing the premiums a while before diagnosis, but never got round to It! 

If you want to ask anything, please do and I'll try to help. 

In the meantime, rest up and look after yourself. I hope you're not suffering too much with sore skin problems. 

Take care, Jo xx

Thank you so much for the reply! I have my follow up i a weeks time and am pleased to say am feeling not too bad at the moment - energy levels are up and skin had healed nicely.

That's great news about your energy levels and skin healing. If you need anything after next week's news, do drop me a message. 

Take great care, Jo x
