What is the survival rate for colon cancer patients


 What is the survival rate for colon cancer patients?
my mom received chemo but what she says it is a preventive measure against cancer. she knows she doesnt have CA. Does this mean that chemo can be for non-cancer patients?

Chemo is not used as a preventative measure. Survivability for colon cancer is highly dependent on the stage which may be difficult for you know since your mother is obviously not telling you the truth. At best she probably has at least a 3A cancer which has a 5-year survival rate of about 80%. I hope this is the case as stage 4 is not curable. Early stage colon cancer does not require chemo.

not very high because chemo KILLS...ask the doctors they wont take it if they had the cancer. damn ...ur mom has been scared to the point of taking it when she doesnt have it.... perhaps u need to look into colloidal silver and bob beck, your mom might not but you could if you want to make a difference

There is a cancer website I came across that has a pretty good concise list of different cancers and contact information: http://forthefightagainstcancer.webs.com Hope this helps!
