Hi my name is jimbobs

I was recently diagnosed with bowel Cancer in November 2016. Had part off my bowel removed and a colostomy bag fitted. And had a mop up chemo then. Given the all clear to be told last year after my routine scan it had returned in my lung as a secondary .had another op to remove the nodes again given the all clear . And no chemo this time . Went for routine scan in August , was first given the all clear as my results weren't back in full but told there was nothing to big to see , but unfortunately that was not the case and upon returning the following week was told I needed a pet scan and when I got my results I was devastated as not was it in my lung but my liver too in my chest cavity and my peritoneal cavity stomach lining infect in my blood .

I am now having chemo second one was this friday gone .Not feeling too bad a little tired and terrible nausea and my hair seems to be thinning too . Sorry for long message but as this happened to anyone else

    Welcome to Cancer Chat and I'm sorry to hear about the results of your recent scan. I'm sure other users will be able to share their stories with you, which I hope will be some comfort. I thought I'd share some information here in case you ever find it difficult to cope with some of the side effects. 

    All the best with your treatment,
