Thank you SurvivorSpouse and susie0915 for sharing your experiences with me. Your stories will help me to be a little less anxious over the course of the next three months. I wish good health for everyone.

Hi. I just wanted to follow up after my appointment with the oncologist. He wants another CT scan in three months, to see if the lesion has changed in any way. I asked him about an MRI of the liver, he said that the lesion is not big enough (2-3 mm) for an MRI to be warranted. He also said the CT sc...

Hi. Yes, all of the kidney results are referring to the same mass. I will ask my oncologist about whether an mri of the liver is appropriate. Thank you for the suggestion.

Hi. I had a CT scan yesterday (10/24/18). I was diagnosed with colon cancer in 8/14. The CT impression from 10/24/18- tiny 2-3 mm hypodense lesion in the right lobe of the liver which is too small to characterize; however, it is new when compared to the prior study (10/17). No other intrahepatic les...

My prayers are with you. Waiting for test results is so hard.

Sorry about the polyps...IDK if they can be prevented, I think some people just grow them. I am so uncomfortable about the waiting times between colonoscopies in folks like us, who have had diagnoses of cancer. THREE YEARS IS TOO LONG!!!!! I had my 1 year colonoscopy a few days ago and the doc said...

Hi. Just a quick follow up. I had the colonoscopy yesterday. It had been two years since my last colonoscopy. The gastroenterologist removed four polyps. He doesnt think they were cancerous, but they are being biopsied. Unfortunately, even though I followed the prep instructions, the prep wasnt as g...

I am very happy for you and you have been very helpful to me.

Hey good luck CMRL. I hope that polyp can be removed without a problem.

Thank you O Stoma Mia! You and many others were helpful to me in the beginning and throughout this whole experience. I was very anxious in the beginning of all of this, and the anxiety stayed with me for quite awhile. I'm sure I will be nervous tomorrow, but I almost have an attitude like- if there ...
