Hi Kaza, I was diagnosed last sept, 5 days before my 30th b'day with the lung tumors. Wasn't until I went in for a colonoscopy, bronchoscopy and laproscopy on the 24th of Sept (the day after my son's 4th b'day) that they found the primary in the bowel. No scans showed this up, not even the PET scan. They removed 70cm of the large intestine and 16 lymph nodes of which 9 were diseased. So that came as a shock as I said none of that showed up on scans. So we hope they got it all. Thanks for the info on the support group only I'm in Vic. The cancer council site for vic doesn't have a forum like this so thats why I have begun posting here, but thanks anyway. I don't know yet if I do carry the gene's I am in the process of having it all done, will keep you updated. Cheers Mihalo
