Publisher's Synopsis
Written by the top UK expert in this field, this is an easy-to-read guide to bowel cancer - most importantly explaining how to recognise the symptoms and seek treatment for this eminently curable but little-discussed condition. The book explains the structure of the bowel and the nature of cancer, before outlining what the symptoms are and when to go and seek help. It will then accompany the patient and carer every step of the way, through different treatment and surgical options all the way to after-care and rehabilitation. Fully endorsed and supported by the Bobby Moore Fund and Cancer Research UK, this friendly and straightforward guide gives the reassurance and information you seek when you need it the most.
