Y-90 liver cancer treatment: What's your experience?
Liver Cancer | Last Active: Sep 20 12:55pm | Replies (257)Comment receiving replies
I received the Y90 TARE treatment in Nov 24. Immediately afterward, I started a 2 yr drug trial with Durvalumab and Bevacizumab which are immunotherapy and tumor-starving drugs respectively. I do notice a lower energy level and I sleep for longer periods of time, but I am not certain which treatment caused this. I wish I could predict if the Y90 will add to your husband's fatigue, or if it will have no additional negative impact. I know that the Y90 gave me a significant mental boost. I know that many of us feel depressed at times which can bring on fatigue. But I wish you and your husband the best and have added you to my prayer list.

Leo, thank you so much for your reply! I hadn't even considered if his fatigue and loss of appetite may be depression related. He is not very good about sharing his feelings with me so I just thought it was the cancer/treatments.
I'm not sure what the Y90 TARE is... it was presented to us as Y90. He has an appt next week with the doctor that will do the procedure so I will ask if this is the same procedure or something different. Did you have much pain afterwards?
And finally, thank you for adding my husband to your prayer list! You will be in my prayers as well. Thank you.
