My partner has mets to her liver and we are considering funding TACE privately.
I also see that numerous people have gone abroad for this - in particular Germany.
Just wondered if anyone has any experience of TACE in UK or abroad. How long did it take? Side effects?
Wishing everybody every possible good wish.
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I'm not a member of this group, I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
I've searched the group for other posts which mention TACE but only found these two. They are both from former members, so you won't be able to contact them, but you might find what they've written helpful.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your partner's diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
