Most likely you will have to have a portion of your stomach removed. After that you will have to supplement your caloric intake for the rest of your life.

Surgery.... then chemo.

There is always the hope of healing, don't think that chemo or radiotherpy is the way to go, it can only bring you more body deterioration and the spread of the cancer. The way to go is detoxification of your body and feeding it with lots of nutrients that will help your body regenerate. Watch the following links and discover real cure for cancer. Raw living foods high in enzymes capable of rebuilding your organs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XChao-XxUJE&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpJeASKipr4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMdktdaReOw&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGJYQ5E5T7Y&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsfapVCJqVI&NR=1

Not sure what you are asking . . once the cancer is metastatic it hitches a ride in the blood stream and lymphatic system . . meaning it can go anywhere in the body and set up new cancer colonies everywhere. With colon cancer complete surgical removal of all visible disease along with chemotherapy to try and control the mets would be one goal. You might consider joining an online support group who might be able to steer you towards resources: ACOR: Colorectal Cancer Discussion List http://listserv.acor.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ACOR.EXE?A0=COLON Colon Cancer Alliance http://www.ccalliance.org/ ASCO: Colorectal Cancer http://www.cancer.net/patient/Cancer+Types/Colorectal+Cancer

Do you mean in the stomach lining or the lining of the colon? It's a big difference. If it's traveled to other organs, it's at stage 4, and the outlook is not very good. If it's in the lining of the colon, it's only stage 2, and the odds of survival are about 85%. If you are talking about it going into the stomach, they can give you medicines to try to prevent it from spreading even further, like cetuximab. If it's in the colon lining, you will have surgery to remove the tumor, then possibly have chemo (doctors are split on whether to do chemo at stage 2).
