I am also stage 4, one metastasis to the lungs that should be operated in two weeks. After the operation no more chemo is planned but only follows up. So far I am feeling very well and take one step at time. I live in Norway so protocols are a bit different there. My father had CRC when he was 64 and lived 10 years, did not die of cancer, he was incredibly strong during the whole treatment and I think this helps me to stay positive. I have two kids and got to give them a as normal life as possible.
Keep us updated about your PET scan results.
