https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/New-Start-here/Living-with-Lamn/m-p/38084#M6601 <P>Hi my name is Jenny. Back in early march I had some stomach discomfort and ended up in hospital with a ruptured appendix. Then after pathology results was confirmed I had Lamn ( low grade apendeceal&nbsp; mucosal neoplasm. )&nbsp; meaning that had appendix not ruptured all would be fine, but as it did i now could develope PMP. Which means your peritoneal area fills with mucous slowly over years and is life threatening&nbsp; as causes blockages, etc. I am told now I could just get monitored with PetScan every 6 months or have Crs and Hipec, which is a huge operation to cut away any area with tumours at the very least some of the apron inside your peritoneom and then have heated chemo straight into the abdominal&nbsp; cavity.&nbsp; My recent scan was all clear and so was my colonoscopy. I've booked in to have surgery in approx 6 months time.. even though we don't know if PMP will develop.Thing is PetScans don't show up a few cells only more advanced tumours so I'm told. Has anyone else had this ? Or Hipec? Thankyou .</P> Tue, 13 Jul 2021 04:57:41 GMT jennyd2909 2021-07-13T04:57:41Z https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/New-Start-here/Living-with-Lamn/m-p/38084#M6601 <P>Hi my name is Jenny.
