Today i have been inform that my cancer has not spread, there are a few nodes around the area of the tumor in the caecum , but these will all be removed when i have a 3rd of my bowels removed and a resection.

My question is if they remove the effected area is that it done a dusted or am i likely to need any further treatment? 

 

  • It's great to hear your cancer hasn't spread KayBaz and that the nodes surrounding the tumour are going to be removed.

    Unfortunately I can't answer the question you've asked at the end of your post but our team of cancer nurses may be able to help so if you'd like to get their thoughts on this, you can contact them on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Hopefully some of our members will share their experiences and advice with you soon as well but in the meantime, we're thinking of you KayBaz and wishing you all the best with your surgery when the time comes.

    Kind regards,
