@mak70, I'm glad that you found the online support group here on Mayo Clinic Connect.

Here is a list of additional discussions related to anal cancer https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/colorectal-cancer/?search=Anal%20cancer&index=discussions

Mak, let me see if I'm understanding your situation. You have been diagnosed with anal cancer with a mass 10cmx6mm that is very uncomfortable. Have I got that right so far? Are you currently having treatment to shrink the tumor to make surgery possible?

No, primary mass is in the rectum, it is T4bN2M0. There is also a smaller mass in the upper aspect of the anal canal. I am going back to the surgeon on August 8th for biopsy of anal canal polyploid lesion before final treatment plan is made. I am just waiting (patiently !?!)
