        I get that sometimes too but I never had the hemorrhoid surgery. So I can feel them pooching out. And sometimes flat when they blow. Also have some near the entrance on the inside. So could be that but like janner said should have doc check it out.

        Also if I remember right the pet and maybe ct aren't as good at the colon as a colonoscopy. Granted you just had one 3 years ago so that might be too soon. Dunno.

              Sort of with the leg pain. I was on opdivo from May 11 to late August. Then was off for six weeks. Two days after that dose I woke up in the middle of the night with massive leg pain in the front of my lower knees and upper legs. Not the back of my legs. Very weird and it wouldn't stop and was driving me crazy. Doc said it was my tumors pains. So started the awful opioed pain meds. But that is another story. I had also had keytruda for about a year before May 11.

                    There's a combination of oatmeal and other things I don't remember. Search on this site for things like rash and it should come up in a response. Supposed to have worked well but I never tried it. I tried other things like a spray but it was only temporary relief.

                          Yes from what I've heard vitiligo is a good sign the immune system is working good against the cancer.
