Hi Kez

I had a ruptured appendix 4 years ago. The biopsy was carried out after my op and found abnormal cells that was a type of cancer which was also very rare. I can't exactly remember the details but I was called in to speak with the doctor pretty much straight away and told I needed a colonoscopy to check if it had spread. Fortunately it hadn't and it was just the appendix that had been removed and I was in the clear. They said I would need to be monitored by the surgeon for the next 5 years. So far they have cancelled all my scheduled appointments each year!

Did they say anything about having a colonoscopy? 

My husband's cancer started in his appendix.. goblet cell carcinoma. He also had it in colon and peritoneum. Surgery removed all of the above and then needed 12 session of chemo x
