Hi got ny diagnosis yesterday and had laproscopy for staging today apparantly stage 4 and inoperable bit of a bummer really. Now got to wait till next week to see if chemo worthwhile. All I can say is dont know if I want to have treatment and feel crap or just enjoy life while I can

  • Hi

    I'm sorry to hear that you've discovered that your tumour is inoperable and I can understand why you're wondering whether to have chemotherapy or not.

    When making your decision it's important to remember that although there are side effects not everyone gets all or even some of them and you may sail through it. Have a chat to your oncologist next week and take it from there. When you know which type of chemotherapy they're recommending you could then ask for people's experiences of it here.

    In the meantime I've found this information for you on chemotherapy for stomach cancer

    Let us know how it goes next week.
