Question

i had an ileostomy takedown after being cured of cancer. i had radiation and chemo. how long did it take you to get normal or almost normal?

Answer 1

I had radical radiation for high grade cancer and a colostomy takedown, more or less the same thing, I did not stop bleeding from the radiation for twenty one years. Even now at twenty three years things are far from normal, oncologist said it is the price you pay.
