New patient: diagnosed with neuroendocrine tumour highly aggressive in my rectum

Diagnosed with Neuroendocrine tumour highly aggressive in my rectum, localised 3cm second round of chemotherapy on Tuesday

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat AOJ, although I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis.

    You mentioned you're having your second round of chemo today, so I just wanted to wish you good luck and let you know we're thinking of you.

    You can find out more about neuroendocrine tumours and the chemotherapy you're having on our website but if you have any other questions or concerns, you can give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very well informed and will do all they can to help.

    I hope some of our members who have had the same diagnosis and/or treatment will stop by soon to share their stories and advice but in the meantime, look after yourself AOJ and if you're feeling up to it, let us know how you got on. We'll have our fingers crossed you won't experience too many side effects from your treatment.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
