    Metastic sigmoid tumor
    Hi J! Welcome to the club you really didn't want to belong to... but now that you are here, you are going to find that it is the best place to feel sane in a world that has been turned upside down!

    Do tell us a bit more about you and your diagnosis. Your subject line said "metastatic sigmoid tumour"... so I take it that a tumour was found in your sigmoid colon and that it has metastacized... do you know where it's spread? I'm sure you will be getting oodles of information from your surgeon and oncologist... to the point your head may feel like it's swimming. So do feel free to post any questions, fears, concerns or anything else that you would like to get opinions or hear similar stories and how we all dealt with it (or are continuing to deal with it).

    We look forward to hearing more from you!!

    Hugggggs,

    Cheryl

    Welcome J
    Welcome, I am fairly new myself, had a Colonoscopy in Sept. found Cancer, Right Hemi-Colectomy on Oct. 15 and still healing due to a wound issue from a complicated surgery. I'll share whatever I can, so far I am getting ready for Chemo but not yet started, had the Port placed but waiting to be cleared from the surgeon.

    I think the mixture of those seasoned by some time in the battle and those similarly new to the battle makes this site helpful. You'll get straight info here and I find that very helpful. Sorry you have to join us but this is the right place if you have colon or rectal cancer.

    Welcome again,

    Mike
