Well I had my Trans anal exicseion last wednesday. They said the results would take 10 days so when the surgeon called today I almost had a heart attack. YEAAAAA!!!Results came back all clear and they managed to fish out a couple of lyphm nodes (usually don't get any with this kind of surgery) and they also came back negative. I really didn't know have heavy I felt and until I got this news I think I am floating on air.

    Fantastic news
    Fantastic news. I also had the transanal to get the first tumor out. Not many of us get that. I had to have chemo/rad to kill off a node that also was cancerous.

    Very happy for you.

    Hey, congratulations on that
    Hey, congratulations on that great news. That's just what I was thinking (hoping)they would say. So, what are your plans now? Are you a "back to normal" person or a "not going down that road again" person? What are their recomendations for follow-ups? How soon before any scopes or scans? It's great to hear. Keep us posted.
    Take care, Chris

    Dear Chris
    To tell you the truth I don't think I can be either one of those people. Not a "back to normal" I broke up with my boyfriend today because he didn't even come to the hospital, I have learned that I deserve better then that. As far as "not going down that road again person" only god knows that but today I smiled for the first time that it felt like a real smile so I think I will be"a day at a time person"in a joyous way. I have appointment with onc on 19th of oct don't think I will need chemo but we will see and then follow up with surgeon in 6 months.As everyone knows here life can turn in a moment I tried to live a day at a time in a joyous way when I was in the middle of it all, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. I tried. What about you?? Second opinion???Laura

    Was that you up in the sky today? I thought you looked familiar, LOL:)

    I'm glad you are doing ok - and maybe the boyfriend breakup will work out ok for you too - you do deserve more for what you have to go through. It's a shame, but you got alot going for you.
