Treatment delayed due to liver function issues

Hi PeterPandora 

I'm sorry to read that your treatment has been affected by high liver enzymes. I'm sure that whatever has been decided is for your safety. I don't have the answers for you I'm afraid but could I suggest that you ring or email your specialist nurse to discuss the changes that you would prefer to be put in place. She will be able to liaise with the MDT re whether the plan is viable. If you would like to speak to someone in the meantime, the Macmillan helpline is an option and you may be able to speak to a nurse.  https://www.macmillan.org.uk/about-us/contact-us

I realise that it is frustrating to have changes made to your treatment but the human body doesn't always do what is expected. Best wishes for the rest of your treatment.

Hi PeterPandora 

This happens quite often . They normally make decisions from

the final scan . I worried when my mum’s treatment was reduced but the scan showed good shrinkage just the same . They will invite you to discuss this and sometimes they suggest a few extra cycles if clinically appropriate but others are ready from surgery .

Take care ,

Thank you for this very helpful and reassuring reply Court. How is your mum now? Did she have bowel cancer also?

Thank you so much for this informative response, much appreciated
