Discouraged
I am new to this section. I have been involved with the lung cancer. I had lung surgery 6 years ago. Last summer I was diagnosed with colon cancer. I had surgery, then chemo. Just 3 months after finishing, my cea levels went up. A scan revealed involvement of 3 lymph nodes. I was started on Keytruda

Jack Frost.
I remember years ago When Jack Frost was my friend Thinking back to days gone by Why did that friendship end? He always made me catch my breath When he suddenly appeared But soon I would be making steam With nothing to be feared Cosy nights by the fireside With a cup of tea Whilst Jack played around

Does Anyone Have Expanded Bile Ducts?
According to my last several imaging tests I have an expanded bile duct. Is this normal for the disease? I am scheduled for an endoscopic ultrasound in a few weeks to take a better look at it. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is there any thing they can do for it? Or are we just spending

So scared...
I had a routine colonoscopy 2 weeks ago and 10days after I received a letter to see my surgeon. I knew the result must be bad, but not this bad! My cancer is back, sited in the opening of my colostomy, my surgeon says I need the remainder of my large bowel removing and also my rectum! I am not worried
