  • Episode 3 - Colon, Meet Cancer: Hurry Up and Wait
    2025/07/04
    A quick trip to the surgeon reveals that all is not as it seems, and Ben’s colon cancer journey takes a sharp turn almost as immediately as it starts. Multiple tumors during a surgery initially meant to remove a single cancerous mass lead to a diagnosis of metastasized colorectal cancer. And the expensive nuclear diagnosis machine shorts – in much the same way Ben’s Father’s brand new (at the time) Vauxhall Victor broke down on a Sunday afternoon drive. A potential podcast subject that Ben dismissed years ago as not being interesting enough (Italian data on a barrage of combination chemotherapy) reappears as the best first-line treatment option for Ben in 2025. The episode concludes with insights from Ben’s oncologist and preparation for the rigorous chemotherapy regimen ahead: Chemotherapy – it’s a full-time job. 00:00 Introduction: The Vauxhall Victor Story 02:11 Unexpected Medical News 04:12 Understanding the Diagnosis 06:45 The PET Scan Incident 11:04 Meeting the Oncologist 15:15 Preparing for Chemotherapy 16:58 Conclusion: The Journey Ahead https://www.mycrohnsandcolitisteam.com/ https://www.cancer.gov/types/colorectal https://www.cancer.org/cancer/types/colon-rectal-cancer.html

  • Episode 2 - Colon, Meet Cancer: Should I Be Worried?
    2025/07/04
    Ben has a routine colonoscopy and comes out with an unexpected diagnosis – an ulcerated mass in his ascending colon. The gastroenterologist gives him his first tattoo ever, which is sadly visible only to the surgeon who will remove it. Ben has been living with Crohn’s Disease since he was a teenager, so the news of an intestinal polyp turning cancerous is not shocking. An easy snip-snip excision by the surgeon, and all will be back to normal…. Or will it? 00:00 Introduction & Diagnosis 01:11 Personal Reflections and Stigma 02:58 Living with Crohn’s Disease 05:07 The Experience of Having a Colonoscopy 09:07 Post-Procedure and Results 11:57 Facing Mortality and Future Plans 16:25 A Personal Incident 19:14 Conclusion & Sign Off https://www.mycrohnsandcolitisteam.com/ https://www.cancer.gov/types/colorectal https://www.cancer.org/cancer/types/colon-rectal-cancer.html
