[QUOTE="oldmodman, post: 10492239, member: 10303"] All the news I can give you is bad. My best friend was diagnosed with colon cancer last Thursday. Her surgery is scheduled for Monday. But the radiographs show that it is late stage three or early stage four. It has already spread to the liver and lymph nodes, and possibly the lung. Even with aggressive treatment she will only have an 8% chance of being alive in five years. She is only 43 with three children. If your friend was diagnosed early enough, say late stage 1 or early stage 2 there is a 63 to 78% chance of surviving out to five years. If it is still only inside the intestine and has not spread the chances are excellent for a full recovery. I am going to talk to my Dr. next week about getting one of those "swallow the camera" visual studies done. Not covered by insurance and it is expensive but if it can catch a cancer in the first few months it would absolutely be worth it. [/QUOTE]
