Here is hoping you will kick cancer's arse. You did it once and you can do it again - even stage 4 cancer - I know after having survived stage 4 tonsilar and lymph node cancer where every lymph node in the right side of my neck was cancerous. It was a hell of a fight, the toughest thing I have ever done or likely will do in my life, just as my chemo oncologist told me it would be. When he told me that - after two other doctor's had told me, with huge but obviously strained smiles on their faces, that I had about an 80% chance of survival - I asked him what were my chances.Just got news after a visit to the ER twice over a period of 4 days for what I thought was constipation related. First ER visit confirmed something was in my lower abdomen region, which I felt a bit of during a self-exam for constipation (no I didnt fingerbang myself lol). I was given tylenol-codeine 4 for the pain and was told by the doc its highly likely cancerous and maybe stage 3 definitively and possibly stage 4 because I keep losing weight even after eating normally. Well 2 days later I get even worse pains than the last time and i end up going to baylor scott n white in temple. they confirmed a mass was there but it was in my lower back around the right side of my spine and they say the size was 13x5x8cm and creeping towards major blood vessels from my kidneys They agree its a definite stage 3 and maybe 4. they wont know for sure until a biopsy is done if its stage 4. My estranged wife was being very emotionally abusive to me 3 weeks prior to my diagnosis so I ended up walking out on her. I couldnt take it anymore. Now she constantly talks trash about me losing a testicle to cancer. sends harassing emails, the whole 9 yards and then some.
As will ours.I am sorry to hear this news. My family will pray for your wellness

My wife had her boss - a dentist - tell her that the type of cancer I had was the easiest in the world to cure and was nothing to worry about.
