Wow, 168. And was it cancer, then?

Yes a 5 cm tumour stage three , but after an operation and three months chemotherapy , stoma and CT scan or two  its gone so i am in remission for now , fingers crossed, i first went to the doctors about this time last year after i noticed two small blood clots in my poo , other than that i felt great with no weight loss 

Wow, no weight loss and feeling fine. It is all so individual. Fantastic surgeons. Thanks for the update and I am of course pleased for you. 

You can breathe for a bit. It must feel great after all that pressure. 

The Father desires you hang out on the Earth a bit longer. 

Yes its scary because you could easily have it but not know until it’s possibly stage 4 , no i felt as fit as a fiddle up to the day i had the operation , the NHS was magnificent after my key hole operation i never had any pain whatsoever , obviously having the operation knocks it out if you but no pain 

Aww Gord, I am sure that will be so comforting for others to read. I hope everyone reads it. 

I am very ill, so exhausted and have also been in a lot of pain for many years, yet as far as I know to this day, I have no cancer. We shall see after the Colonoscopy for sure about the cancer I guess and the rest remains largely (but not entirely now), a mystery. 

Sorry to hear you are very ill , my wife suffers from pain mostly because of her arthritis she takes very strong painkiller's. , hopefully the colonoscopy will not show any cancer , the constant pain could be causing your fatigue good luck and let us know how you get on
