My new normal here to stay: 3 years out colon re-section surgery

@virgo1952 is this your first colonoscopy since your NED diagnosis ? I was absolutely nervous. I’m hearing my five year mark, and already have my remaining appts scheduled with oncology before they let me go. I’ll continue being treated by my GI, and will have colonoscopy every 7 month or year, but that’s because I have ulcerative colitis which requires monitoring and surveillance
I hope your new care team is a great fit. It’s probably our new normal to be worried by every thing we interpret as a symptom. This group is such a girt

Lisa. This is my first and only diagnosis. You may have read in one of my posts, cancer was discovered during a routine colonoscopy. I appreciate your kind words. I hope the same for you. Discovering what works best for you takes time and persistence. For me, having an array of tools has been my best friend. Sharing on this site let’s you know you are not alone. During Covid lockdown, many of us turned to online sharing as our lifeline. Now, the newbies can learn and pay it forward. Pearls of wisdom. virgo 52 ❤️
