I just have been diagnosed with recurrent bowel cancer, my question is has anyone got an ileostomy and a urostomy. This might be a question that will have to be answered if I get the option after my PET scan results. I would like to make an informed choice on this matter.
If I'm lucky enough to get this option. As it is, I will be getting my whole pelvis cleared. Will it be worth it? Can anyone help me? Please, Suzy x
