Have you had surgery for colorectal (bowel) cancer?
Looking to get some advice from those who have been through surgery for one of our members, 6 weeks out from a sigmoid
colectomy
. If you (or a loved one) had surgery for CRC (colorectal cancer) and are willing to give some advice/share the experience, please reply to this post.

Stage 4 central mediastinal mass
After a lobectomy 3 years ago, I now have a stage 4 central mediastinal mass. No reoccurrence in the lung or spread to other organs. I have been told that only palliative treatment is possible and offered (covid permitting) chemotherapy with immunotherapy. Has anyone experience of this cancer?

Lung lobectomy - waiting for lymph node biopsy and feeling anxious
Hi! My mum was found with a ground glass nodule about a year ago and after many scans went in for a VATS wedge section to remove the nodule in November. The nodule was caused by her rheumatoid arthritis but the surgeon noticed some “ dots” around it and “ specks” on her lung so sent it for a biopsy.

Good news - Stage IIIB
Hi all, just wanted to share good news. I have had clear scan results today after being diagnosed with Stage IIIB, non small cell, adenocarcinoma in 2014, aged 43. My prognosis at the time was poor and I was told I was inoperable, terminal and treatable with palliative care. Discussions were around

Has anyone found a colostomy to be the solution to incontinence. I wondered if it made things more controllable ?
I have had worse and worse incontinence since radiotherapy in 1999. A doctor I saw during this time suggested I might need an 'operation'. Should I abandon the proposed rectal prolapse surgery and have a colostomy?

Dysphagia
Since Ian's total
colectomy
3 weeks ago, he has been having real problems swallowing, and chokes on water etc. I am about to collect some thickener from the farmacia. He has little appetite and his speech has pretty much disappeared, all in a short space of time.

Fluid in opposite lung post Lobectomy
Hi My mum is 4 months post right lung lobectomy, she had an x-ray on Tues which shows this lung is clear - amazing news! However, they said it looks like there's fluid on the left lung, she's to go back in 6 weeks for another x-ray and post that possibly a CT scan, is this a cause for concern?

sweating a lot!
Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone might be able to give me some guidance. I am sweating profusely multiple times a day. It's as if I stepped out of a shower. I've told my doctor (primary care physician) and he assumes it's menopause given my age (54). Something about it doesn't feel right though.

Advice on respiratory issues.
Hi all. I recently had a chest x ray in September, a mid way request as my scan is not due until February. It was fine. However I have noticed that occasionally it feels as if something has hit my respiratory system making me cough, it could be a smell that I am not familiar with. I am reluctant
