- What are some of the symptoms of Stage 1 Colorectal Cancer? What does treatment look like? Join me as I interview a friend and Stage 1 Survivor, Evan. He led an active, healthy lifestyle and never imagined cancer would be a part of it. Learn about how he was diagnosed and how his life changed afterward.
The current screening age for colorectal cancer has been lowered to 45. If you are 45 (or older), please call your doctor and ask to be screened. If you have a family history of colorectal cancer your screening age might be even lower, so talk with your doctor.

God help heal all of the people dealing with health issues 🙏🏼
This helped me a lot. My brother was just diagnosed with stage 1.
Many thanks to both of you. God bless.
Very honorable man with goals to help others using his cancer diagnosis. How's he doing. Update. Part 2.?
Thank you so much Jelina and Evan for all the information
You're welcome.
Thank you so much for posting this video. I am 42 years old and I have my LAR surgery scheduled for November 1, 2021. I was diagnosed with stage 1 rectal cancer. I was really scared at first but now I feel like I have an understanding of what I am about to go through.
Happy to help you feel a little better about what you have to go through with this diagnosis. Hope your surgery is successful and complication-free 🤞🏼💙
Great info💙💙💙💙 thank you Jelena and Evan for sharing!! My husband is stage 2 and is having his surgery this Tuesday 🙏 You've been a great help !!
You're welcome. Best of luck to your husband on Tuesday. I hope surgery goes smoothly and complication-free 💙
@@SurvivorJelena thank you 😊
I was diagnosed with stage1 January of this year. What was supposed to be a clear cut remove tumor with outpatient surgery and close monitoring, has turned into starting radiation and chemo this Friday. Turns out even stage 1 cancers can be aggressive and have markers that will require aggressive treatment. Thank you for all your videos, they've helped to prepare me for what lies ahead.
Wow! That’s good your doctors were vigilant about checking into your tumor markers and want to stay ahead of the cancer. Best wishes to you 💙
Many thanks Jelina
Im 25 and i got a sigmoidoscopy a few days ago. They found precancerous cells in a polyp. They will be going back in and doing a full colonoscopy to check out the other side of my colon. I am scared about what they are going to find. :( your videos give me so much hope! ❤️
Hopefully if they find anything they just find more precancerous polyps that they can remove, then you just have to go in a colonoscopy every year or so. Keeping my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼💙
Thanks for another awesome informative video. As one fighting stage 4 CRC. It really has helped me talking to someone who has completed the journey. I’d like to climb that mountain someday. Right now I’m climbing a flight of stairs.
Ed, I hope and pray for your recovery 💙🙏💙
But that flight of stairs feels like a mountain right now I’m sure! I hope you’ll get there one day 💙
My story is so similar to that man's story. I was stage 0 forever. Stage 0 is just the precancerous cells. They removed them the first time. The second colonoscopy a year later showed the tumors tripled. I ended up needing a total hysterectomy because tumors invaded it and all the structures. I don't know why they didn't think to link them. After my hysterectomy in May, everything accelerated. I've decided to halt everything until after Christmas. My only sister is in the process of getting diagnosed with leukemia, and I don't want to put our parents through anything more during the holidays. I told my doctors that I would be fine. It's been four years, and I am still here.
Wow! So sad. How are things going for you? And your sister...
Hello Jelena, I love your videos , very informative . Do you know what kind of surgery did he get ? I’m trying to gather more information for my husband . Thank you so much!
I’m not sure exactly what surgery he got.
Thanks Jelina
Thank you Jelina and the pressure how long did it take to ease
It took about 2 weeks, which is when I started taking medications to help regulate my bowels.
Hi Jelina hope you are well just want to ask you have you any information or help on dealing with Lars, Many thanks
I don’t have any specific resources, but I’ve had some requests to do a video on it so maybe one will be in my future.
Hi Jelina thank you for all the information, How long after your reversal did you start feeling better, Best wishes
After about 2.5 weeks I managed to venture out of the house and didn’t have any accidents.
Thank you Jelina how long did it take for the burning sensation to get easier
@@carmelfinucane3215 it was probably 2-3 weeks. It felt like forever while going through it.
What was the exact “ procedure” to remove them ??????
I hope this guy stays clear. My mother was just diagnosed with colorectal cancer, and thankfully she’s just been staged at Stage 1. Surgery wouldn’t be very good because there is something on the anus from it. She’s 75 and has felt better than me. Maybe a little chemo/radiation will knock it all out and not be too hard on her body? I hope so.
Hws mom doing?🙏hope n prayers all is well. I’m 52 n in the same situation. Doctors suggest chemo n radiation.stage 1 colon cancer 😢
I am 56 years old stage 1 colorectal cancer my Oncologa recommended 2QUIMOS AND 30 Radiation I believed I dad my cancer for more then 2 years, I had a colonoscopy in 2018 and they find and gastritis 😮diverticulis; but in 2023 they found cancer😮 Iwas bleeding from my recto for more than 2 years I though iwas going to have colon cancer
