My sister has advanced serous ovarian cancer. Just had an operation but it was unsuccessful as the cancer had spread too much. Major laparotomy for nothing. What hope now? Maybe a second opinion?

Drug therapy only way forward but don’t know where to get advice 

  • Hi  and welcome o the community and this group.

    I’m sorry to read that your sister’s operation was unsuccessful-that must have been difficult for you all to hear.

    I wasn’t sure what you were looking for when talking about drug therapy, but this link here will take you to information about getting a second opinion.

    Getting A Second Opinion

    Has your sister’s doctor given a plan for any treatment going forward?

    This link gives information about possible treatments for advanced cancer

    I hope this might help as a starting point for you.
