Hi I'm a year after rectal cancer surgery with no stoma bag , I'm wanting to connect with people that have been through the same and how life and bowel movements have changed for others ?
I'm sorry to hear that you went through surgery for rectal cancer last year. I hope that your recovery hasn't been too difficult and that you've been well supported by the health professionals involved in your care.
Hopefully, others who have been through surgery for rectal cancer will post to say hello soon, but in the meantime, we do have some information on our website about bowel changes after treatment that may be of interest to you. You're also most welcome to call our team of nurses to talk things through with them if that would help. I know they would be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. They're available Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040.
