I’m sure it should hurt when i do alot of walking, but somedays it hurts so bad and I hadn’t done alot of walking.

My Mom’s ex is at our house right now resting from surgery on his colon. He’s about 50…had no friends, so my mom is helping him. Anyway…why would something like this need to be done?

patient has a medicated stent
The medicated stent was put in 11 months ago.

Did everything turn out good? No problems in the operating room? No infections? My dad is 71 and needs the surgery. Please help

My dad is 71 years old with a leaky heart valve. His cardiologist gave him clearance for the surgery. Does this mean there is nothing to worry about with the colon cancer surgery and that everything will go good

My dad is 71years old. His valve is leaking 30 percent. He gets short of breath sometimes. Is surgery safe for him

aren’t the doctors basically cutting ur a_s_s? I would think that’s the most horrible embarassing surgery there is. & u can’t even do #2 either, isn’t it? How do I prevent myself of getting it?

To remove about a foot of it because of a benign tumor.

A person very dear to me had colon cancer in 2007 and had a successful surgery to remove the tumor. She also had some months of coadyuvant therapy (chemo?). There have been further (clean) colorectal exams but I wonder which other exams are ordered in the first year or two following the surgery to guard against possible spread to other organs?
She has regular blood exams, every 6 months. Had recently (1 yr) a colonoscopy that came out good. But no CT scan which is what worries me.

I am getting ready to sign up for flexible spending at work. I need to know about how much surgery would cost. I am pretty positive I have colon endo. I am going to go back to the doc to discuss this once I get insurance. I told a former doc that I have always bled rectally when I have my period (for about 18 years now) and she looked at me like that was the strangest thing she had ever heard of and recommended a colonoscopy (which I am about to have done.). Also, I have a very physical job (I walk 8 hours a night and lift heavy boxes). How long do you think I would need to miss work? Thanks for any help.
Before anyone asks. I didn’t seek help for this before because I have bled like this since I first started my period. I never thought it was abnormal (I know duh!). When I told the doc that I was having pelvic pains I had an ultra sound and laproscopy and they discovered I have PCOS.

I may be jumping the gun but I am curious. All we know at this point is there was a mass found in the proximal transverse colon during a routine colonoscopy and were told that open surgery (colon resection surgery) will probably be recommended from the surgeon. The mass ‘appears’ benign but no biopsy was done since it could not be reached to take a biopsy during the colonoscopy due to the location of the mass. We are currently waiting for the surgeon appointment.

My friend had Colon surgery three weeks ago and is still in a lot of pain, how long does it take to recover.

I an facing a colon surgery soon. Has anyone out there gone through it. I am really scared.
