Some people are back to almost normal in a few weeks.
Other people have severe issues after 10 years.
Right hemicolectomy removes ileo-cecal valve, that is an important part of your digestive system.
Is colonoscopic removal of your mass an option?

Southern NJ.....Dr Stephen McClane at Cooper University, head of colon rectal surgery and co director of MD Anderson, performed my surgery. He is a rock star! Had my surgery at 8:00am on a Friday and was discharged by 6:00am on Sunday. Went home with no pain medicine! I feel like I never had surgery

Your ascending colon was removed or just cecum?
