- What is it like to experience the side effects of radiation and chemotherapy for cancer treatment? Join me as I go into detail about all the side effects I felt as I got to the halfway point of my 28 days of radiation and the oral chemotherapy Xeloda.
I began keeping a journal after my colorectal cancer diagnosis to document the emotions, the appointments, and how quickly life changed. This video is Part 5 of 5. If you missed the first videos, check them out here: • Reading My Cancer Jour... .

My mom is going to have her surgery at age of 75! Trying to stay positive and learning as much as I can! 🙏🏼
It’s amazing that you are running. I will be laid out flat just trying to walk.
By the end of radiation I wasn’t running 😅 I was stubborn and kept at it for as long as I possibly could.
I just had my resection done last Friday. Stage 2. Age 50 perfectly healthy. Such a hard adjustment.
Waiting to hear from an oncologist tomorrow hopefully to get the final stage of treatment started. I have 3 teenage daughters. No way in hell cancer will stop me.
I hope you're healing well from your surgery and that everything will be all clear for you when treatment ends. 🤞🏼💙
I ll take my 8th chemo by next thursday, u encourage me, god helped u too much .. and me also .. we have to remember him always ... Best wishes for u and me 🙂
Hi Jelena, did you ever use a topical cream or ointment for rectal pain? If so which one worked best for you?
Did you ever get a Ct scan? I’m having same symptoms. Weight loss, bloody mucus discharge. Stomach aches. I’m 33. All blood work and Ct scan were normal. Colonoscopy on the 14fh. I’m freaking out
Yes, I did have a CT scan before I started treatment and they saw cancer in it. The doctor can take samples from your colon and run tests to see if you have a digestive disorder that isn’t cancer but is causing your symptoms. Hope it isn’t anything too serious 🤞🏼
@@SurvivorJelena can i do mri instead of colonoscopy? Will it work?
An MRI could see tumors if they’re large enough, but a colonoscopy can see them better, especially if they’re small. Also if they’re small the doctor can remove small polyps while they’re doing your colonoscopy and prevent them from becoming cancer.
I’m so happy to hear you got the courage to finally not cancel your appointment and to get in for your colonoscopy! 🥳
