This is super amazing. When I worked in the Radiation Oncology department over 15 years ago, Rectal cancer wasn't as common as Breast or Prostate. I would get a rectal diagnosis one in fifty or so just like Testicular. Anyhow, at what week of Radiation did you find that the tumor was actually shrinking to where you could actually go to the bathroom more easily?
My mother is now feeling a little fatigue. I always get so nervous for her. I go through up's and down's. Thank goodness I found St. John Wort herbal. Takes my depression away a little bit.
Thank you,
I started to notice a difference around 15-17 treatments in. I started seeing a lot of mucus when i had a movement.
I just had a brief conversation yesterday with the medical oncologist about my final pathology report.
Bear in mind MRI put my growth at 5-6 cm before treatment began. The final report put the growth at less
than 0.5 cm.
I pray your mother has great results as well!!
