Hi, i am in exactly the same position. My team of consultants and surgeons seem to want to remove every thing and clear bowel etc. Not sure yet if has to be done as open surgery because it is so large and stuck together. I am scared of the op and the not knowing much yet, plus it was a total shock. Not sure what waiting lists will be like either now.

If you ever want to chat I'm here!
