The text above is a follow-up to ...

-----Question-----
1) How long does a rectal cancer tumor takes to advance from stage 1 to stage 2?
2)Is a permanant colostomy normally required at stage 1?
-----Answer-----
1. Cancers like patients are individuals! There is no simple "one size fits all" answer to your question. Different tumours grow at different rates.
2. Not often, but it depends on the size and location of the tumour (even stage 1 tumours can be of different sizes) as well as other factors.  

Answer
On this site I do not charge anything! On the other hand I normally do not do anything like that here. I've only done anything remotely similar here and that was a case of mistreatment in Britain with radiation therapy. Still not finished. But such a case is MUCH simpler and much easier to do. Your type of case I would never do here which is completely free of charge. If you want to consult me as a paid consultant, I have to warn you that my fee would be AT LEAST 140 US $. You can find me at Kasamba.com for a paid consultation. However I must tell you already now that I can not promise you the result you desire. But I can go through the records. The rest we will see.
