My cancer started in the colon, progressed to the liver and I have just been informed that there are now 4 spots on my lungs, 2 of which are considered to be cancerous. The advice I have received via Mayo during this journey has been magnificent and I would now welcome further advice concerning my lungs.
I recovered very well from the colon and liver resections and I'm currently 100% fit - lots of skiing, cycling and walking so far this year. But I've been informed I will most likely need chemotherapy and ablation treatment for the lungs.
Could someone tell me about their experiences of ablation treatment and whether this was done before or after chemotherapy? And is the cancer likely to spread elsewhere too? Many thanks.

@martin77, that is a good topic for a new discussion in the Liver Cancer support group: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/liver-cancer/

In the meantime, you may wish to read this related discussion in the Pancreatic Cancer group where members are talking about liver ablation:
