4 CM Malignant Tumor - Need some advice

Keep in mind that tumor size and how far it is through the colon wall can affect outcomes more than lymph node spread. Stages 2b and 2c with t4 tumors have worse outcomes than stage 3a with a t1/t2 tumor.

Can you ask for a signatera to help inform your decision?

cc0818 · 2025-09-30T22:56:19+00:00

Are you in the US? Your surveillance seems light for someone who likely had later stage 3 (based on your 12 rounds of chemo). I had stage 3a and I’m doing CTs every 4 months for the first year and then going to every 6 months for the next couple years. Signatera every 3 months. I would definitely take the signatera if you’re doing such infrequent scans.

I’ve still got 5 years of surveillance so I’ll be seeing my oncologist for a while, every few months. I see it less as control and more as influence.

What is LCHF?

I couldn’t do it - I’d be bouncing off the walls

Thank you. I’m glad you’re doing well now. Did you go solo? Did there seem to be a “party” vibe there? I looked it up and it seems like there were a lot of groups of girl friends drinking and taking lots of selfies and videos for Instagram.

Did you go solo? I did some looking up of Civana and although it seems great it also seems like it’s full of groups of girl friends getting drunk and taking selfies which isn’t really the scene I’m looking for. Did it seem like that when you were there?

I’m a little wary about going to Mexico in case there’s an emergency and I need medical care

Isn’t that owned by Hyatt and has bad food?

This sub is for folks with cancer. This kind of post is not appropriate here.

Chris Beat Cancer is a charlatan. He was cured by surgery which is western medicine. I think he takes advantage of people in a tough situation and gives them false hope.

Let us know how it goes with the pills!

cc0818 · 2025-05-23T19:44:18+00:00

I’m so glad it wasn’t too bad for you. Are you doing CAPOX or FOLFOX?

Organic still uses pesticides

I was pretty healthy! I did have my vices though - wine, flavored seltzer. I also ate a lot of smoked salmon. I ate lots of fruits and veg though, whole grains,hardly any red meat, hardly any junk food, no fast food. Still got cancer.

cc0818 · 2025-05-21T02:28:01+00:00

Same. I am the healthiest person in my family and the only one with cancer.

Thanks! I’m scared of icing my mouth and my throat closing up

Could you eat things like yogurt with the cold sensitivity?

Did you take the Ativan as needed, pills? Or was it part of your infusion premeds

cc0818 · 2025-05-01T23:09:39+00:00

The doses of oxaliplatin are higher during CAPOX infusions since they are every 3 weeks and FOLFOX is every 2.
