Simultaneous Two primary cancers : Colon and Breast
I am a single / widow, 78 years of age, based at Mumbai, India.
Have been physically fit all my life - no medical problems till two months ago (except a left TKR in 2008).
Suddenly, my world is falling apart.
Diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in last week of August 2013. surgery was conducted on 26th August, resection was successful.
On 24th Sep, a day before starting my Chemo, a PET scan showed additional cancers, and subsequent biospy confirmed a second primary (Breast stage 3) and seconadry meta in the liver (from Colon).
Will appreciate any advise, what next?
