[|Human|] hi there, i am a 46 y/o male just diagnosed with t3 n+ m0 rectal adenocarcinoma . The polyp is about 4.3cm long and 2.3cm wide, on the rear wall of my rectum at between 6 to 10 cm from the anus. It bleeds easily and has infiltrated, but seemingly not beyond the wall of the rectum into the fatty tissue - yet - although local lymph nodes are swollen. what can i do whilst awaiting treatment in terms of what can i eat to help fight off this cancer, and how debilitating is the prescribed chemo and radiation therapy?
[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for the query. In such cases it is recommended to do preoperative radio or behemoth to reduce tumor size. Then it may be operable. You should now do frequent red blood count check, eat easier food and use stool softeners. If there is low hub you need blood transfusion. Also take iron supplements. For pain relief you may need some stronger opiate painkillers and site baths may be helpful too. Wish you good health. Regards
