I hope that your scan in August gave you the results you were looking for. I too have squamous cell cancer. Mine is in the anus. Your fecal incontinence is most likely caused by the radiation you had. I’ve been dealing with it for months. Unfortunately, chemo and radiation didn’t work for me. I am now waiting to be scheduled for APR surgery which includes a colostomy. Like everyone else, I was against having a colostomy. I thought it would be the worst thing ever. Now after months of spending all my days in the bathroom, I am welcoming it. It will help improve my quality of life and I won’t always be looking for a bathroom wherever I go. Wishing you the very best of luck!
