Good evening,
My partner recently had a ruptured appendix recovered really well and quickly following the op then two weeks later received a call from the consultant saying they had found a cancerous tumour called goblet cell adenocarcinoma. Whilst the consultant he is under is amazing they don't know much about it so referred him to a different hospital.The CT scan came back clear and his colonoscopy removed 3 polyps two of which were benign and one that was normal fatty tissue. We of course were so pleased, relieved and felt extremely lucky with this news. However yesterday he received a call from the hospital and they have asked for his appointment to be face to face and I am allowed in with him as there will be a lot of information to take in.
I was probably being naive to think the clear CT and Colonoscopy was it we were done, he is young and we can go onto put this all behind us but now this relief has passed and I am so worried and anxious inside as is he I know although hiding it well. I can't help but wonder do they know something more that we don't / have they not told us something? I feel so in limbo has he got it hasn't he and driving myself crazy inside. I have come here because I feel so selfish feeling this way as it is not me who has this and he is being so strong about it.
Everything I read is so scary and clinical saying how rare it is, the surgeries that last hours, rapid downhill etc. I just wanted to know whether anyone else has gone/going through this with positive outcomes?
