My mum has bile duct cancer, prognosis 12 months. Unsure why she is starting chemo. Confused with it all
Hi Spang
Welcome to our community, I hope you find it both helpful and supportive.
Looking at the main site page on bile duct cancer I note:-
If it is not possible to cure the cancer, you can have treatment to control the growth and help with symptoms. This may be with chemotherapy and sometimes radiotherapy.
Your cancer doctor or nurse will talk to you about your treatment options:
A prognosis can be helpful in some circumstances but can only be a guess based on averages and was that with our without treatment?
Do post on here whenever and remember to you can also post in Bile duct cancer forum
