I am so happy to hear you are doing well. It has been 2 years in September I'm not sure how I'm doing right now. A lot , so much going on with my entire family and since I have been fighting almost on my own everyone thinks that because I'm fighting they all seem to think I'm completely cancer free and only by the grace of God I'm standing. Have a mom that is not doing well, she is dealing with a lot of health issues. I was with her for 3 weeks and I felt falling sick again and trying to take care of her and myself as well is been very difficult know what to do right now.
That sounds like a lot on your shoulders. I will pray that you and your mother both start feeling better very soon. It's hard enough to take care of yourself when you aren't well, but the added responsibility of caring for a loved one at the same time must be overwhelming. I hope you have a good relationship with your mom and also that you have friends you can talk to when you need an emotional outlet or boost. I will keep you both in my prayers.
So glad to hear your surgery went well. I recently lost part of my sigmoid colon due to diverticulosis, so I know the changes in your bowel movements is very real. That was the biggest challenge for me was learning to notice the signs because if you don't, it caused further issues for days to come. I am grateful for you sharing your experience with us to help others with the same battle. Prayers going out to you so you can beat this for good.
Thank you for your kind words! I hope you, too, live a healthy and comfortable life. I guess we all have something, right? I like to make the best of any situation. Attitude is 99%!
Is a descended stomach a symptom? It looks like a beer barrel. Previously, I had not had an issue with bowel movements. Now i do, or issues with my weight. I feel full after a small meal, nausea, and weight gain. I have had several FOB tests with no blood. A history of diverticulitis and bowel cancer in my family. Writing this , it is so crystal clear that i need to see a specialist. Thank you for your channel. Blessings ! 🙏
Yes, thank you for sharing your journey with everyone. That is true be positive it will be ok I have had Brain surgery with many more so pleas think positive and pray if you need to God Bless.
Agreed, 100% Thank you for your message of hope and encouragement. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Keep up that positive attitude! It is so helpful.
You’re welcome, and I hope everyone who watches takes a message of hope. Thank you for your kind words. I’m working to keep a lifetime of good dietary and exercise habits to keep it away. 💕
I hope not. Remember, these symptoms could be a lot of different things. My goal is to raise awareness to make sure you go and get checked. And the check will hopefully be negative for cancer. Prayers for you to find out what is going on, and that whatever it is, you receive excellent care and it goes away.
I just had my colonoscopy with four 2cm polyps removed, thankfully they were “abnormal cells” with no cancer detected. But my surgeon said I will need a colonoscopy every year for 10 years to be sure 😮. This worries me. I know I shouldn’t worry, but I can’t stop thinking “what if he missed some”.
I’m so glad they found and removed those polyps! That’s pretty big. I don’t recall if I even asked how many or how big mine were. It is worth those visits. Keep healthy habits, and know that you’re going back in a relatively short amount of time. If your gastroenterologist is anything like mine, they did a couple of extra sweeps to be sure. Praying for your continued good health!
@ thank you. Your videos are very reassuring and I pray you stay well. I am very happy I did the poop screening test which detected blood. Staying healthy, trying to get my mental health strong too. Bless you x
Colorectal cancer usually forms from polyps, which are thankfully easy to spot, of course only if you do an colonoscopy, like you had. There are also benign polyps, which not always form cancer. Fact is, if those polyps won't get removed, they will grow slowely, over years and years and eventually form a cancerous structure, which then evolves into higher stages if not treated (Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3 and Stage 4). That means, finding a polyp is not a bad thing, it is actually a good thing, because it won't have the chance of transforming into anything thats bad. If these wouldn't had be found and removed, your future self would have a very rough time... So, thats some great news :)

I think you hit the nail on the head. I would ask for a baseline colonoscopy to be safe.

Me too! Im not having poop regularly for sometime, too scared to go to a doc😢

@, exactly!
What were your symtoms like?
How long before you can eat meat, fruit, vegetables? How long before bowel movements? Was it painful? 😇
Thank you! I will make note of your questions, and address these in my next discussion about the surgery. I appreciate you watching and asking.
Love 🥰
Thank you, Theresa! Hugs and prayers for your continued health and healing. 💕
Why don't you buy a slow cooker and cook half a kilo of veggies in it every day for 6-8 hours?
I wasn't sure how things would be after surgery. I hadn't even thought about that. Good idea!
