I’m sorry for your brother’s diagnosis. It’s devastating to have a family member get this news. The nodules would be read in cm.
I am in my third year post stage IV anal/rectal cancer. I’ve been treated with chemo & radiation twice. He will feel miserable, but with a lot of support get through it. Wishing you & your family all the best.

Thank you so much for responding and for sharing your story. His journey starts Tuesday and I am of course hoping for the most minimal of side effects. He has a village and we will all be there for whatever he needs. I am even postponing improvements I have wanted to do on my house to pay his rent for at least a few months, maybe more if possible. Thank you for clarifying it is cm. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Hi amyb5, I am the other sister, my brother has done 3 rounds of chemo so far and now the side affects are starting to show up. Throwing up, diarrhea and not getting much sleep. As we were all hoping for no side affects it is really kicking him
