We already met last week, but the MRI report came in after. We had already set up the treatment plan I will be getting my port put in tomorrow and starting chemotherapy on Wednesday morning. I'm stage 3, it is very low in my rectum so they are throwing everything at it to hopefully prevent me from needing a colostomy...

I hope you're doing okay with chemotherapy. Thinking of you.

Thank you so much! Chemo went well. I thought I was having a reaction to the the sticky pad from having my port put in, but it has gotten worse and appears to be shingles. Of course it's Sunday so I will take to the doctor tomorrow.

I’m so sorry it may be shingles!
I had an allergic reaction to the port/chemo application tape, and had to go with sensitive dressings after the 1st one. Praying that’s all that you have😘
You need to catch a break!
