My best friend has been diagnosed with stage 4 uterine cancer. During the operation, they found the cancer spread to her colon. With radiation and chemo, what is her life expectancy?

I understand your concern, but predicting life expectancy in cases of stage 4 uterine cancer with spread to the colon is complex and highly individualized. Several factors come into play including the extent of the cancer, response to treatment, overall health, and other medical conditions.

While radiation and chemotherapy can be effective in managing the cancer and improving quality of life, it’s crucial to have an open and honest discussion with her medical team. They can provide more detailed information about her prognosis based on her specific circumstances and guide her through the treatment options available. Additionally, seeking support from counselors or support groups can be beneficial for both your friend and her loved ones during this challenging time.
