Just though i would post an update I have just come out ofhospital as I was admitted with stomach pains Easter Sat. I had to have an operation on Sunday to remove my apendics and repair a whole in my small bowell. After reading the paperwork at home apparently I had a tumour on my apendics and one on my bowell. This was the first that I had heard about it being in these places I thought I was doing so well with my liver mets shrinking and now it has knocked me back again.
Sometimes I just wonder how much more I can take.
So I supposse I will have to have another break from chemo until my stomach clears up.
Its nice to be home in my own bed though

Caroline,
Bloody hell! I just can’t believe this disease. I am so sorry that this has happened to you.
I can say no more other than enjoy being at home in your own bed.
Blasted disease!
Isobel
Caroline !!! Waht a time you have had!
What a sneaky, nasty disease this is. Is there anywhere it cant creep?
I am glad you are at home and feeling a bit better.

oh caroline - what a terrible time you have had - hope things now start to get better - this stuff can be such a shi**y disease - thinking of you , jayne x
Oh Caroline, what an awful time you are having. You poor thing, this disease is just so cruel.
I think it is very poor that you found out that it had progressed to your appendix and bowel by reading the paperwork, I would have expected someone to have sat down and spoke to you in person.
Wishing you a speedy recuperation from your operation.
Take care, Paula X
Caroline - what a dreadful time you must have had and what a shock. As Paula has said - it hasn’t been handled very well has it? Hope you recover quickly and any extra treatment that may be needed is kind to you.
Take care

Oh Caroline, how awful for you. I had never heard of it spreading to the appendix - such a cruel disease. Not surprised you are feeling as if you’ve been knocked back. Hope that you have a chance to talk through with your oncologist really soon what the next step is and get a bit more clarity over what is happening.
Sending you a big hug Kay xx
Oh what a dreadful way to learn about this…it must have been a shock for you.
It’s good to hear you are now home, I hope you recover from your op quickly.
Love Belinda…xx
Hi Caroline
I am leanring new things all the time about this dreadful disease - I was told that it most commonly spreads to lungs, liver and bones but never knew about anything else! It really does creep about! So sorry you have had such a hard time and hope you are feeling much better soon. I love my own bed too and hopefully you will be able to get out into this lovely Spring sunshine soon - if it lasts.
Best wishes Sue xx

we will all be thinking about you and wishing you well

Hi Caroline
So sorry to hear about your spell in hospital and the appendix/bowl mets, I hope that now it has all been taken away that leaves you in not too bad a condition. Like everyone has said, you don’t expect to have the cancer move to these places.
I know you must be feeling pretty sore, I myself have just had major surgery on Thursday on my spine to relieve a collapsed vertibrae which was causing spinal cord compression (all due to bone mets). I had only just started to recover from a major hip replacement with pins on 16 March so my poor body is absolutely knackered from these two ops within the space of a month. Meanwhile my skin mets are raging on so | have to try and pull myself round PDQ in order to start Capcetabine/Lapatinib which has been postponed pending these two ops. You feel a bit alone when no one else has the same problems as yourself.
Anyway I hope things settle down for you now.
Best wishes
Linda
Hello Linda, you have had a tough time. 
I hope things now start to improve and you can get a little stronger each day…Good Luck with the Capec/Lapat combo…I hope it works very well for you…xx
Hi Caroline,
So sorry to hear your news. It must be a shock to find out your news that way. Glad you are at home and hope your onc can get you sorted asap.
Sending you lots of hugs and best wishes
