Just got the news… stage 2 Carcinoid tumors

My surgery at Mayo in Jax is the 1st week in Nov where they will remove about 10-12 inches of my lower section of small intestine and hopefully the affected 2 lymph nodes. The team thinks they can do the procedure laparoscopically and hopefully be able to remove all the cancer. I’m not very excited but I’m ready for this cancer to be removed.

I certainly understand that you are "not very excited" but ready for this to be removed. It is great that this can possibly be done laparoscopically. That would be good.

Wishing you all the best. Will you post again with any updates and especially after your surgery?
