Hi. My wife was diagnosed with CUP at the end of October. She has had three cycles of chemo and has responded well so far,
Hi Yakmanb6d758
Welcome to our community, I hope you find it both informative and supportive.
I am Steve, one of the community champions and my experience of cancer is via my wife who has Leiomyosarcoma so not a unknown primary however I saw there were no replies so far and did not want you to think you had not been noticed.
Good news on the chemo, hope that continues. With my wife she had two separate types of chemotherapy and the doctors managed to render the cancer stable - been like that for about 10 years now and with some help we got to the happy state of living with cancer rather than any alternative.
There is a specialist group here for Carers only forum that is quite active helping to support us without concern for patients and then there is the more open Family and friends forum
Hope you wife continues to get on well with the chemotherapy.
<<hugs>>
Steve
