    It is a blessing that you never lost your hair during chemo. None of your pictures showed you with hair lose. That is just one more trama, particularly for women.

      Rapid weight loss for no apparent reason should always be investigated. I’m no medical professional, btw. I’m a breast cancer survivor. I’m writing to say that I’ve had heavy blood after bowel movements and several colonoscopies over twenty years, and each time the bleeding was due to hemorrhoids, not cancer. Of course you should check it further, as you are, but even a lot of blood in the bowl doesn’t mean it’s due to cancer. Wishing you all the best.

    Bless your heart! I recently finished chemo and radiation for HPV-16+ base of the tongue cancer and all I can say is that throat cancer treatment is brutal. 3rd degree burns all around my neck with no taste or smell and still on a feeding tube after 6 months. The good news is that my last PET scan showed all clear a few months ago. Back in 2003 I had a colon preforation out of the blue which required emergency surgery. 2 feet of my colon was removed and I woke up with a colostomy bag on my side! Fortunatly, surgeons were able to reverse the procedure after about 8 months and reconnect everything. The bag ain't pleasant or pretty but it's much better than the alternative! Thanks for sharing your story, you are a trooper!

    Thank you for telling your story. I hope you can beat your Cancer. My mom had ColoRectal Cancer too. She was 69 at the time. Her tumor was the size of a grapefruit in her rectum. The Cancer was within that tumor and they got it all, so she didn't have to have Chemo Therapy or Radiation, but did need a Colostomy. She was Cancer-Free for 18 years and it never came back. However, she died a few months ago from Natural Causes. She is a Success Story.

    I hope you weren’t alone when you heard the news. I’m a 5 year colorectal cancer survivor. I was in my dressing room with dogs barking in the living room and my spouse on the phone for work. It was very surreal with my GI asking me if I needed someone to be there when he told me the news and of course I said just spill the beans doc. Your journey sounds very similar to mine. I had an 8 month ileostomy while the surgical site healed. You have a great medical team as did I. Stay strong cancer warrior princess and I wish all the best. I also had Xeloda with the same reasoning. I did have to have a port after surgery and it saved my veins. ☮️🙏🏻

    I had a patient who likewise did everything right, was young - I think she was in her late thirties- early forties and she got breast cancer and I was her home health nurse. And besides having terrible pain which I most definitely was able to help her out with, she was angry. She said “I did everything right and I still got breast cancer.” And the only answer I could give was “all the right things you did help. People who didn’t do what you did might have gotten sick 10 years earlier than you.” And I think that did help.

Because I have IBS I always tell myself it's just hemorrhoids. My Dr's assistant is having me do a CT Scan with contrast of my stomach and pelvis. I've never had one that you get the IV and contrast and then 2 hiurs later they do the scan. I would lie if I said I wasn't a little scared. God bless you for sharing your story.

    It's all about your immune system Every day your body has cancer cells, whether or not the body destroys them is another thing. It doesn't matter whether you eat perfectly, exercise or smoke. The immune system ( mostly in the gut ) is the most important component. Kombucha, fermented foods and probiotics certainly help and also a state of peace of mind can only help.

    I don’t understand why they didn’t do chemo and radiation first than to check if the tumor was still there and than do surgery if needed that’s what most places do

    21:55 i don't agree with her attitude like she could be a fraud or something was wrong, but i too felt shame bcz i am a professional dancer and i would be outcast if they had known. So i danced throughout my treatment, but if i had a bag, i wouldn't have been able to dance and it would have been my demise bcz dance is my reason for living

    I often feel like (harsh, I know) but, people who say things like “oh, maybe I made some bad choice and so I deserve this?” Is that what people think of me? Yes, if you’re asking that question of yourself? Then, yes someone IS thinking of you that way…it’s was you. You’re the person who judge folks

    You want to be really care full not to self diagnose , but at the same time, nower-days every one knows blood in your "stool"
    could mean colon cancer. Also a lump is never good and neither is a prolonged cough.

    I have NEVER heard a single thing about the gene mutation that makes your body hold onto that chemo! It doesn’t shock me at all if insurance companies don’t test for it, but it still disgusts me that they have no regard for human life. Even if it’s a small percentage, those are still human beings that, at the very least, deserve to know the gene exists and CAN be tested for, even if it won’t be covered. You never know what people are able to afford, or what they’re willing to do to get the money. Thank you for sharing 🫶
