Hello all
I hope this query finds you well.
I have primary bowel cancer and secondary liver tumours I have had treatment which went very well, however after having an MR scan it appears that some of the tumours are pressing on the intraphepatic bile ducts causing multiple blockages along the duct.
ERCP stents have been ruled out due to the amount of blockages so dependant on liver conditions i am to have another course of chemo 5FU and oxiliplatin.
Is anyone aware of any other treatments that you've had or heard about to either desolve Crystal blockages, or remove? Or been in a similar predicament? My oncologist hasn't offered any solutions?
Long shot but thank you for taking time to read, I understand the oncologist knows best but worth asking.
Thank you
