PET Scan confirmed diagnosis is only at rectum and no abnormalities in any other area. CEA is 1.1ng/ml.
1.My question is under which stage is the Cancer presently and doctor said since the cancer is starting from tip of anus in future she won't be able to pass motion thru anus
2. by doing Radiation,Chemotherapy and surgery will she able to be cured completely
3.does the hair fall off if Radiation and Chemotherapy is done.

Diagonosis report for Cancer.
My mother-in-law had fever for 2 weeks, after following up with all diagonosis possible we came to know that she had fluid in her lungs. Initially doctors suspected only lung infection, then after removing fluid from lungs and testing it, they suspected TB or Cancer, then after Broncoscopy test they ruled out TB and suggested PET-CT Scan. Now we've shifted our patient from Delhi to Bangalore and we're yet to finalise a doctor, but today we got PET-CT Scan done, but due to non-availability of doctor we're unable to interpret the result. I am posting it here, so that someone might help us understand this report.
Thanks in Advance

Lymph node in groin
Hello,
1.5 months back I had swollen lymph node on the right side of my neck below my jaw line. I was prescribed Cepodem for 7 days and an USGA. USG showed reactive nodes over 2 cm in length and loss of hilium. Now my neck lymph node have came down. Both side feels same. Previously I could feel the right side. There is no cough or cold. Recently I am able to feel lymph nodes in my groin area. More prominent in my left groin by touching. Apparently the skin is not swollen currently. Is it swollen or is it normal to feel groin and inner thigh lymph nodes. I have slight back pain at some postures and very occasional pain in middle chest. No problem in breathing or swallowing. Just chest sometimes hurts while shouting. 1.5 month back chest xray was done due to other reasons and was fine. Is there something to worry about like lymphoma? My general physician told it's just my stress. I have occassion here and there weird pain that goes away.i am pretty scared please help me.
