Title: Anal cancer
Post by: Handydan on August 07, 2014, 01:05:35 am

Has anyone else here been treated for anal cancer? The kind associated with HPV? I had a stage 3 carcinoma and had chemo and radio therapy and have been cleared for 3 years but the healing process is ongoing.

I still have pain and occasional bleeding and my cd4 level is still in the dip after the chemo, but finally getting better.

 Just wondering if anyone else has or is going though it.
