Can I ask where your's had spread to making it stage IV?

I had extensive peritoneal spread
The cancer was originally found on a tumor encompassing my ovary. I had small tumors all over my omentum and the outside of my colon, as well as the primary tumor, which filled much of my appendix. Fortunately, no lymph nodes were involved. However, the ovarian tumor made my cancer stage IV.

Spread was extensive, requiring resection of pieces of both my left and right colon, as well as a bit of my small intestine. However, those tumors were on the outside of the intestines (large and small.)
