Hi everyone. Ive just been diagnosed with bowel cancer. Im currently not really meeting due to recovering from surgery. I have been told i will fefinetley need chemotherapy and another operation. What are peoples views on meeting people that are going through chemo ? Theres another question further down the line. Im unlikely to need a colostomy bag as its on the other side of my bowel but could still happen. Would you meet a guy with a colostomy bag ? I know theres no way i would refuse it if it meant my life. Just interested in peoples opinions. Thank you xx |

Honestly I would avoid meeting people if you are having chemo, someone with a slight cold could end up passing it to you and could make you very ill
My daughter had cancer so I know how quickly you could become unwell.
Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery for you |

Thank you soo much for the replys. This is completely new to me. Sooo still very much in the dark about how im going to feel whilst i go through treatment. Its hard to think with a clear head at the moment. I really appreciate the advice. Love the sense of community on this site sometimes. For all those currently going through treatment or have loved ones going through it. I wish you all the best and hope for a speedy recovery. Xx |
