Hello, my dear cousin age 52 was diagnosed with stage 4 rectal cancer in Feb 2015. It had spread minimally to the liver. Surgery, radiation and chemo took care of it all. She finished all treatment in Nov 2015-clean bill of health. The only chemo she was on was Xeloda and Folfox.
In Nov 2016 they saw a nodule on her rt lung. It was 3mm. They waited 3 mos to see if it grew, and it did to 11mm. She got the news today it is cancer.
I am trying to do any and all research I can for her as she is truly having a hard time with this.I would love to chat with others that have had similar diagnosis with relapse. I am particularly interested in knowing what types of treatment is out there. I am doing the research for her as she navigates through this mess.
Thank you all so much, God Bless all of you.
