I was told surgery was not an option and I did not press for further explanation, just accepted it was due to the number of small tumors on my liver. I understand every case is different and I will be interested if a second opinion confirms. Thank you for the information. I am currently in a Clinical Trial that Dr. Starr is in charge of at Mayo Jacksonville although I have never seen him.

donnarushing55 I am glad you have an option for a trial. With NETS it seems everyone is different. In my case, the surgeon made the call to remove the one tumor on the head and take the tumor and remaining tail. At that point, I was and by the grace of God, a stage one, and currently as well! I am sorry you can’t actually meet Dr Starr in person, but you’re on the right path. Wishing you all the best! 💜🙏
