edited March 2014 in Colorectal Cancer #1
After the worst 15 months of my life, I got the results from my PET/CT and MRI and was given the "all clear"! Had a little scare when the PET/CT showed some 'metabolic activity' in the liver, but the MRI came back completely normal (what a great word!). Still have 2 more surgeries to go ----- one in September to redo my anastomosis which is overgrown with scar tissue and include one opening of the fistula, as well as to repair the fistula itself; then another three months later to reverse the ileostomy.

I almost didn't post this because I haven't been on the board for long and felt a little like maybe I hadn't "paid my dues" as a contributing member. But then I read several of your 'good news' posts and felt so encouraged! I hope that my good news is encouraging to someone else.

Wishing all of us only good news!
With thanks to everyone for making this such a helpful "community",
Dorothy
