Special interest - Upper colon cancer

In September 2005 I had an orange-sized cancerous polyp removed from the upper colon. The surgeon removed 26cm of colon as well as 19 lymph nodes. Fortunately the cancer was contained within the bowel wall and all biopsies were clear. Regular colonoscopies are now required and at present I am clear of cancer.

I joined the Consumer Advisory Panel to help make people aware that cancer of the colon can be cured if found early. I hope I will make an honest and diligent advocate.
