a. genes coding for enzymes that act in the colon
b. genes involved in control of the cell cycle

Is he lying? He only comes up with a symptom when he is in a bind somehow and doesn’t go to the doctor at all. He claimed to be in a car accident about a month ago because he went blind while driving, yet no one knows for sure because he went to the hospital alone and no one has seen reports of this accident or hospital stay. How can I be sure?
my dad has stage four colon cancer and was diagnosed in mid december. its spread to his liver and lungs and part of his stomach. he also has luekemia. what is the longest he could live with certain treatments?
When they do chemo, does that treatment cure them completely or do they still get sick? Does it depend on how long they had the cancer? Can the doctors tell how long one has had it? Thanks
I recently found out through a family member that my dad is going to Phoenix to see some specialist for colonoscopies/colon cancer. He had his colonoscopy and polyps or cysts were found. Does anyone know if Phoenix has any unique cancer treatment centers/diagnostic centers? I’m very confused about everything, but I can’t confront him about it because he’s not supposed to know that I know.

He has stage III, possibly IV, colon cancer. He has had a portion of his large intestine, along with the cancer removed. However 6 out of 10 lymph nodes in that portion contained cancer. Also the cat scan showed something in the liver but he is to get an MRI to determine if that is cancer or not. He will be receiving chemo. through a port, 2 days every week for 6 months. Are there any alternative or additional treatments available?
How long does it take the chemo to start working ?
Should you show improvement on the first treatment ?
Are you given a scan after every treatment to see
if the chemo and radiation are working ?
Will a scan show that the cancer is gone from the lymph nodes ?
I have recently started dating a guy who is undergoing treatment for colon cancer. We haven’t discussed sex other then the fact that due to the treatment he has told me he is not able to. I am wandering whether after the treatment will he be able to resume a normal sex life and how do I go about bringing up the subject or do I just wait till he brings it up?
I’m trying to understand what the early symptoms of this form of colorectal cancer are and how they differ from classic adenomatous CRC. If you are qualified to answer this question, I appreciate your answer and thank you in advance.

2. How long did you have the symptoms before you sought treament?
