The surgeon came in every day to check in on me, so I’m not sure what visit to was but he said, “you are one lucky person. The blood (that I was experiencing in my stool) was not coming from the tumor. It was just chance. And you need to thank your dr for recommending a colonoscopy, because 9/10 drs would have looked at your case and told you to chane your diet and let you be in your way.”

I had already called my dr after the colonoscopy, crying and thanking him for having me get one. But this just made me think, someone is watching out for me.
