Good luck to you in your fight.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

You've got a battle ahead of you my friend, but you CAN beat this. You need to rely on the support of your friends and family right now, and also be strong for them...because trust me, they are also hurting and in shock as well.
Don't give up the fight dude.

on a side note i had my SECOND colonoscopy today, they wanted one more look before surgery i guess having a camera up your ass is bad, but the prep phososoda u have to drink the day before...UGGGG ...u basically pee out your bum for 6-7 hours
thankyou for the out pouring of support!! ill be back with updates periodically, until then peace
I'm truly happy that things aren't as bad as you first thought. Things are already looking better for you. Ahh, the power of prayer I'll continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Keep on keeping on! ~Desiree~

KingOftheThing said: i would ask a mod sticky this so all my friends have a chance to read it. (i have discussed this with a few of you already) Over the summer I started to have red blood in my bowel movements. I ignored it and passed it off as hemmoroids. About four weeks ago I began to have a dull ache in my lower left abdomen which spread up my left side. My bowel movements again contained blood and were much smaller than usual. I was into 3 different doctors and the emergency room. Finally I saw a gastrointestinal doctor and he ordered a colonoscopy. Today I found out that I have and advanced tumor in my lower colon. Even with treatment the prognosis is not looking good for me. I am in a state of numbness in shock. I don't know how much longer I have on earth. I am done posting, probably for good. I may stop back to check pms. However once I go in for surgery, Im not sure I'll have access to a computer again. THey think it has already spread to my lungs. This IS NOT a joke or a hoax, this is deadly serious. Right now I'm crying pretty hard, and I never cry. I figure I'll get telling my online friends out of the way first.... I have no idea how I am going to hold it together to break it to my friends IRL. thanks for putting up with me **************************UPDATE************************* yesterday when i made the above post i was obivously scared out of my fucking mind because of what my doctor told me. he basically gave me worst case senerio and was warning me with only 6 months to live ... well today i have been a the hospital allllll fucking day again. but the news i have is much different from what i was told. the cell sample from the tumor came back and the cell aggresivness is not as bad as it could be....further more i was given a round of CT scans of my chest cavity and a second round on the abdomen. the amazing news is the chest pains i was having and the shortness of breath were probably from anemia due to blood loss from my bowel movements.

I am so glad you got better news. Thanks to this thread I am getting myself checked out as well because i experience some of the symptoms, and to put it bluntly, I never shit. Well I do but like, may be once a week. It is from all the different prescriptions I have been on since I was 11. Those things really fuck up your digestive track and the rest of you, that and I need to drink more water. So yea, I made a doctors appointment. Don't feel bad, you aren't the only one with a broken ass.

thank God, great news KOTT
not to hijack this very personal thread but-- i for one am taking KOTT's advice and getting a colon screening... my mother has Chron's disease ( a risk enhancer fo sho!) and i myself havent been feeling to right down there--possibly displaying a few of the symptoms of colon cancer ...reading KOTTS post actually gave me an anxeity attack
i thought about this for a long time but dont have health insurance im only 27....but KOTTs 23!
guys get screened! girls get your bf's and brothers and fathers to go to the hospital i googled something earlier that i cant find right now but FREE SCREENINGS are available in most states.
there was colon cancer awareness week last month (sept. 14-19) where many hospitals across this country offered free screenings. im gonna call one of the places around here and see if they couldnt give me one for cheap or free.
take care KOTT and everyone
