I forgot to say I am around 5 months out of SBRT Ok that’s definitely too long to be ‘normal’ post radio bleeding. Could be tumour bleeding, radiation-induced colitis, or another injury from radiotherapy. I’d suggest giving your rad onc or oncologist a call, and if it’s anything more than modest (s...

I forgot to say I am around 5 months out of SBRT

both bright and dark. It's never dried sometimes mucus with it. The doctor didn't look worried. I still pass stool but sometimes its watery stool and diarrhea because chemo gives me diarrhea usually. And its on both bowl and paper sometimes not all the time. I showed my doctor a pic and he didn't se...

Hello Everyone It has been a while since I posted hope everyone is doing well I have a question about SBRT radiation I had it on my pelvis and rectum. Ever since I had radiation I started having rectal bleeding and now it's getting worse. I do have a colonoscopy due soon like in two weeks or so. I'm...

Diagnosed stage 4 @ 29 years old. 1 met to liver and colon. I am now 35. Still here but it came back in the pre sacral area only for now but still here....

Hello Everyone Hope everyone is doing okay. Well, I am still here alive and kicking. Yesterday I got a call from my oncologist who said that the MRI showed a new tumor. So the next step was to do a pet scan which came out normal everything looks fine and has no issues at all. I had a CT with contras...

yea i know i been on the pump before. Well i hope its small since it did not even show up on a ct scan at all. Only on the pet scan is when it showed up. And yeah this one will be a little long since its my first treatment in around 3 years. Oh well i guess if its bad i will tell the doctor. Well th...

I hope it does not show up on the pet scan with the chemo. That is my goal. I don't think surgery is an option here. Since they could not even do a biopsy at all. And i just called from the doctor seems like no pills at all. Around 5 hours of chemo. Then i go home with the bag for 48 hours. I hate t...

Hello Everyone Well, I just finished talking to my doctor. She did not seem to eager to do surgery on me since the cancer is back on the pelvic wall. There were a lot of blood vessels there and they could not even do a biopsy. But he is 100% sure the cancer is back. So my regular oncologist gave me ...

thanks for the reply

well as far as the CT and Pet scan show currently they think its in that area and i have been feeling warmth there at night it wakes me up and it hurts a little bit. But oh well i guess we will see what my doctor says once the biopsy is done and results come back...

Hey there you were the exact same age when I was diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer. Please do not take what I am about to say as rude I am a very straightforward person and always asked the doctors to tell me the honest truth. I prefer it that way. Well, 1st off life isn't fair sorry to tell ...

Hello everyone well after my colonoscopy came out good nothing there. I talked to my oncologist and she said that they will be doing a biopsy on the pelvic area they have to make sure if it is cancer or not. She said she cannot do surgery there. She did say something they do mop up chemo a few round...

So sorry to read this. Like Stu posted, hopefully just a bump in the road! Keep us posted... This makes me glad my husband’s onc finally requested a PET. Just like you, he’s gotten a series of clear scans, but his CEA is so high. With cancer, there’s no burying one’s head in the sand. Knowledge is ...
