I am battling Colorectal Cancer – have finished treatment but am really struggling with coping and what to do next. It was stage 4 perforated but no lymph nodes involved I just don’t know what to do next or how to carry on and not make it the total centre of my life.

Thank you very much for contacting us with your concerns regarding coping with colon cancer.
I totally empathize with you as I see a lot of patients dealing with your same experience. Your doctor should normally explain to you what to do next and offered a surveillance plan to ease your mind. Didn’t he do that?
Meanwhile, I suggest you start with the following resources:

3- Cancerdocs offers you the ability to talk to expert oncologists online to get advice. Our oncologists can review your case and provide support either ongoing or for specific aspects of your case. You may request a consultation by visiting this link
