@joan19 I can tell you about my friend who had breast cancer about 20 yrs ago and then 10 yrs later she had gotten anal cancer. She had surgery and Chemo for both cancers and it has been about 14 yrs now since the anal cancer. She is doing fine.

They have made excellent advancements since she had her treatments.

I would recommend you speak with several Dr's as to how they would treat this situation. I know she must of saw like 5 DR's from Top Hospitals in Chicago. I believe she ended up going to Northwestern Hospital. They had the most advanced treatment at the time. She was pretty young at the time too 49 yrs old.

But do get several opinions for your best results.

Wishing you the best
Jackie

Yes we have had about 6 Dr’s they have been getting together -the problem is he had prostate cancer in 1997 so the very area has had radiation so they are going with chemo first then surgery after they see the area in surgery they may do radiation! I think I’m trusting the Dr ‘s more ! One especially Dr Rojan is great !
