Hi. I'm new to this site and wonder if there is anyone in this group has origination in the appendix. That's what I've been diagnosed with. Signet Ring Cell Adenocarcinoma Stage IV. Anyone? Thanks.

    Hi LynnLaura
    I am sorry you need to be here but you have come to a great support team. I don't have the same situation as you, but I know there are others here who had origination in the appendix, so I hope help is on the way.

    Yes

    My wife was diagnosed on February 19, 2017. She has finished her 10th treatment now. I know this is 6 years old but I had to respond. Tim

    Is she seeing an appendix cancer specialist?

    Tim, I was diagnosed with Appendix Cancer 10 years ago, and the only reason I'm still here is that I found an expert in appendix cancer.  I hope that your wife has done so as well.

    Mine didn't originate there,

    Mine didn't originate there, but they took it with the colectomy, and I've heard others say the same. I wonder at the connection?...................Dave
