Mesothelioma diagnosed

Hi Kidsangel 

My husband was diagnosed in June 2023 - he had immunotherapy and on initial scans there was some shrinkage, unfortunately the treatment caused him to have severe colitis & after 9 sessions was stopped due to side effects & the cancer growing.  He has since had chemotherapy Pemetrexed with Carboplatin he has had bad side effects from this too - his treatment seems to cause him more problems than the actual cancer.

Everyone is different though & your husband may have amazing results, the only way you will know how it is going will probably be after his next CT scan.

I truly hope it does work for him. 

Sending our very best wishes & will keep our fingers crossed for him

Hi Wardyboy, I really hope this offer of another treatment works for your husband ,that he is in a much better place with out too much pain and suffering.Thinking of you both through these tough times .I hope you are both getting all the help and support you need .

My husbands cancer has spread which has caused other problems,not giving a great quality of life .He has a full body scan at the end of October,so will know more then.

But hospital , palliative care etc have all been very good and supportive.

Thankyou for your response, there are times when you feel so alone .

I wish you both all the best, take great care
