First thing anxiety doesn’t help much. First action stop bleeding:I eat big green leaves to stop bleeding.It doesn’t mean that will solve your problem but it will give you courage. Have a look in the mirror and tell yourself I will beat this.Look deep into your beautiful eyes and see the courage and love for yourself.I have join Quora to study what cancer is and now I know the main reason is stress. If you can overcome stress and work in colaboration with your oncologist you will join the survivors club 😋

Hi aysedeniz,

Thank you for posting on Colon Cancer Connected. I appreciate your encouragement about joining the survivors club after a cancer diagnosis. The power of positive thinking can go a long way as well. I am in that club and hope to stay there👍😁. I didn’t have anxiety as I choose to focus on things I could control rather than an outcome of a treatment or therapy. Anxiety is real and I do see a lot of patients get it. I don’t see where anxiety actually helps a situation. It’s a very individual thing. It can over power people as well.

I have heard that stress can cause other health issues as it is usually associated with anxiety. Overcoming stress and avoiding it would be a beneficial thing to do. I have never heard it can cause a gene mutation and cancer. My cancer turned out to be a hereditary situation. My father gave me the germline mutation. Now that I know that, I get some surveillance testing done annually to catch anything early as my immune system tends to not recognize cancer.

I wish you all the best. Thanks again for posting. Quora sounds interesting. Looks to be kind of like Twitter.🤔
