Stage 3 colon cancer: What's your experience?

Posted by maya8238 @maya8238, Jan 10, 2023

I didn’t get an a b or c though. Just got told Stage 3. 7 lymph nodes found out of 37. The surgeon didn’t seem to be worried about my stage 3 made it seem ok but Google tells a different story. I call the oncologist today.

I feel like I'm where you were when you posted this in July. How are you doing? How is the chemo treatments? I'm so confused and unsure about doing chemo.

Do you mind me asking what has you confused? I know how scared I was before I started my first Chemo treatment I didn't sleep the whole night before. That was almost 9 years ago. Looking back on it, I was a different person then, along the way , I have learned so much about this disease and I try to reach out to others that are where I used to be. Please know that you are not alone and can reach out anytime.

Because of all the nasty things chemo does to your body. I've only met with one surgeon and have a second and third opinion scheduled, so I,' still gathering information.
