Complications, but a "good" outcome?

I've had a blockage, and currently in hospital feeling pretty grotty.  Not as grotty as two/three days ago, so we're on our way back. Bottom line is it's sortable, and with an outcome we'd hoped for anyway - the news I hinted at in previous posts is I'm to have an operation to remove the primary.

It seems the cause of my regime change was indeed the primary "waking up", and appearing to grow around the end of the stent, slightly blocking the bowel.  Two things we don't want, and therefore we must consider removing the primary.  Added to which is the concern that the stent may increase the likelihood of a serious Avastin side effect, hence the desire to remove the stent, which can only be done via surgically removing the tumour.

So three birds with one stone!  Tumour, blockage, and stent in one go.

Subsequently, after the op (no date yet, but 10 days or so), we hope to be on a full regime (Avastin andFilofox) within the month... because the GOOD NEWS is the treatment seems to be reducing the liver Mets!!!

So bottom line is - in 6 weeks we'll have no more primary and a reducing secondary... Wow!
