I was diagnosed with Stage 2b adenocarcinoma of the colon in April of 2016. Had a hemicholectomy and completed 12 rounds of FolFox in November of 2016. By June of 2017, I was feeling great and back to my old self. This lasted briefly. Mid-August of 2017, I woke up one night in horrible abdominal pain. After many doctors visits and tests, a recurrence has been ruled out thankfully. I had my gallbladder removed, scar tissue removed, and a nerve block which has reduced the pain so that I can function. However, I am still having some pain and discomfort. I can only eat small quantities of food and have to take 2 capfuls of Miralax a day. My diet is also very limited. I am feeling ok, but could be feeling better. Looking at chiropractic or acupuncture therapy to see if they may help. Has anyone else had similar issues or success with these therapies? Any advice/recommendations would be appreciated.
