Wonderful news.. Thank you for encouraging update!

It's already a great feeling when the colonoscopy is over and everything looks good. So happy for you! I was told to come back after three years also. It will be two years for me in the spring...I will ask the doctor then if three years is too long. Although I think it takes a while for tumors to de...

So sorry to hear you have lost your dear mother. You were a wonderful help to her.

My genetic thin hair got woefully thinner during and after chemo. I decided I would skip the chemical exposure although I am sure it had nothing to do with my colon cancer.....I had highlighted my hair for years and years and was pretty much a blonde.

So sorry about your diagnosis. Your situation sounds a bit like mine. I had a routine colonoscopy and the doctor saw an irritated area that he thought was nothing.. Just inflammation from the prep. He took a biopsy and it turned out to be cancer. He was pretty certain we had caught it early and surg...

This is an ongoing problem for me too, and I am nearly three years out from my resection. I feel like it's diet related, but I can't pinpoint it.

Congrats on your new home, continued health and this next chapter! It's all good!

Absolutely fantastic!

I was in your shoes two weeks ago. Sending you a ton of positive energy!

My neuropathy peaked at about 3-4 months after my last infusion and then gradually improved. It's isn't gone but it's much more tolerable. Just a little numbness in the tips of my fingers that I almost never think about..I still have all my fine motor skills. At the worst I dropped things, couldn't ...
