Reply to "J pouch and cancer"

I had Ulcerative Colitis for 30+ years and was on Imuran for about 8 years. I was diagnosed in 2015 with Colon  Cancer(Stage 3). Had temporary Ileostomy while undergoing chemo. Then had reversal. In remission for one year and it came back in my nodes. So now I’m living with Metastatic Colon Cancer although I am Stable thanks to Johns Hopkins and Keytruda (Immunotherapy). 2 years Stable. 

If you do get a diagnosis make sure that they check your Biomarkers and your Mutations!!! Those results will determine which treatment will result in a better outcome. If your doctor disagrees with this... I urge you to get a 2nd opinion!

lots of Luck!
