Hi everybody,
My 2nd line chemo has failed to work and my lung mets have grown. I feel like I've wasted 3 months on this horrible chemo with a painful port. I also feel I wasted the 3 months before that doing "wait and see". The previous chemo didn't shrink anything either so "wait and see" was to discover if the lung mets really are cancer although I had been told they were. I can go on to a new chemo, probably Folfox. but I'm beginning to wonder if any chemo is going to work for me. My liver and bowel surgery has been very sucessful, but I need some encouragement to carry on right now.
Love and strength to all aho are fighting this disguting disease.
