Hi all
Had problems w site and then ended up in hospital w kidney stone!! At least not cancer related .. so not been on site for a while.
I finished my chemo and saw my consultant on Wednesday last week after a Pet Scan she said that the I had had very good response only one tumour in my liver which has not responded otherwise I am clear. She said that the MDT discussed resecting the tumour as it is on the surface and easily accessible which would give me a good prognosis - years rather than months. If there had been a medical reason I would have been disappointed but would have understood but I cannot get my head round his attitude.
My oncologist still thinks resection is my only hope - no other treatments and no trials available as they are unlikely to start until sometime next year because of covid. She has suggested a further scan in 6 weeks with a view to asking liver consultant to reconsider but to me 6 weeks is a long time and with covid they may well have stopped surgery again. Any ideas??

Deb1E I can't imagine what you've been going through, we live in a very strange world where major surgery is good news! Thinking of you today and in the days to come as you recover from your surgery. I hope it went as well as possible and brings the results you're hoping for. Sending love and positive vibes xx
Hope the surgery is over and that it went well Deb1E
Take it easy now, and get better soon.
Hello Deb1E., I have just had a nothing type procedure, a neck nerve block.
I am back home now having a junk food dinner along with loads of wine. I don't know if that's allowed but its great.
Your procedure was the real thing and I hope you recover soon and that the op was a success and you can enjoy treats again. Xx
Deb1E
Hope you are feeling better soon x
