Take a look at the site below which explains many misunderstood things about the cancer industry, and has some natural cures too.

Your prognosis would depend on how old you are, your general health in other areas, how far along the cancer is when it is detected. Do you follow the doctor's orders or do you continue the way you were because you feel fine? Without more information than you give it is impossible to give a prognosis.

If the patient's colon cancer does not come back (recur) within 5 years, it is considered cured. This is because colon cancer rarely comes back after 5 years. Stage I, II, and III cancers are considered potentially curable. In most cases, stage IV cancer is not curable.

Stage I has a 90% 5-year survival. Stage II has a 75-85% 5-year survival, and Stage III a 40-60% 5-year survival. These numbers take into account that for stage III patients (and in some studies, stage II patients) chemotherapy improves the chance of 5-year survival.

Patients with stage IV disease rarely live beyond five years and the median survival (meaning half the patients live longer, and half shorter) with treatment is between 1 and 2 years.
