I want to start on a journey towards better health, as I have had the exposure and health concerns you speak about, like ulcerative colitis (UC). While I no longer suffer from UC, as it turned to cancer at 26 and I had a total proctolectomy, I am concerned that without a colon I may need different guidance. Any thoughts on how to move forward?
I have a question about the episode 332: How to know if your gut issue is something more serious | New York Times bestselling author Danielle Walker and the clip Journey to Understanding.

I personally feel devastated by the news and feel that I have lost complete control of my life. This situation has affected all areas of my life. I’ve had to put my business on hold due to the demanding nature of the chemotherapy used to treat this type of cancer. I have two young children, and taking care of them while not being able to bring in money has been extremely difficult. The side effects from all the chemo I have had have made me very weak, extremely fatigued, nauseous, and easily confused. I’ve also developed a blood clot in the area where the tumors are and high blood pressure, so I am on blood thinners and blood pressure medication. I am also on TRT due to the orchiectomy. My life is in shambles. I am writing to you in hopes that maybe I can find some solutions to help get me off of blood thinners and blood pressure medicine, and also figure out how to go about reducing the chances of cancer coming back and maybe avoiding the surgery if at all possible.
