Diagnosed in Feb 23, bile duct cancer, in liver, spread to abdominal cavity, lymph nodes and outside lungs!!! Palliative chemo, anyone going through the same?? I feel completely lost and totally alone, very little to no support whatsoever, Help!!
Yes i am awaiting chemo on the 18th they want me to have a wipple that i am not keen on
if they think i am not fit to have a whipple now two op dates cancelled then i dont see how they think i will be fit after chemo!!
there is a radiation treatment where they attack the chemo in the bile duct apparent not done on the nhs but she said to discuss further after chemo so will see
Hello, thankyou for responding, I'm 59!! Too young for all this!! I don't have a close family, my daughters are in London, 1 in Singapore!! Dont see anyone on a daily basis, seems to be no real support anywhere, from anyone! Unless you want to ditto and make lots of phone calls, which I don't!! Be really nice to actually see, other people.
Hello, what is a wireless? I've not heard of this? I'm sorry you've not been well and chemo is certainly hard going! I'm just awaiting scan results, half way through my chemo now, but not sure I want to continue, how long have you had your cancer for? Have you had any treatment yet??
A whipple is an operation where they cut the pancreas the top
of stomack take out gall bladder and open top of intestine remove part of the bile duct then join all to the intestine
you have to take tablets before you eat for the reat of your life i dont fancy it at all
