My husband is due to have an operation in two weeks as there is cancer in the right bowel which will be removed. The consultant assures us it is contained and once out there should be no need for further treatment.
At the moment he seems very frail. Aenemia is high and he has had intravenous iron therapy which is taking effect as blood levels are going up. He has had a big weight loss but that seems to have stabalised and he's eating well. He feels the cold and has a distinct hand tremor. For what seems to be a relatively straightforward situation these symptoms are worrying me. I wondered what other people's experiences have been in similar circumstances.
