Thank you so much for your kind reply, sorry silly here didn't scroll down far enough to see where to reply at. Yes, after removal of a 2nd. appendix, my lower intestines collapsed and had to be resectioned and metal- stapled back up, due to scar adhesions. I have had heavy metal poisoning twice. Yet was told that, metal surgi clips did not cause it. Looking back I know, that it was not a bad appendix then and all started following an IUD, which had to be removed, which caused pelvic inflammatory matters. But that's another subject matter entirely, but sadly young women have no idea, what they may be in for- there. Your input was so appreciated, I agree, chemo harms- far more than it helps, according to all I've ever read and witnessed upfront and personal in my family.
