Anyone diagnosed with Gallbladder cancer?

My wife has been diagnosed with gallbladder cancer and has gone through her chemo treatment with Cisplatin to try and shrink the tumor for surgery. The tumor actually grew so we are trying a different chemo plan and looking st clinical trials at Mayo. working with Dr. Borad. Doing chemo in our home town.
I would welcome any similar input if it is out there in our community.
Take Care

@dougmcd Hello. It seems this post is from a while ago. I too have stage IIIb gallbladder cancer. I did the surgeries and the treatments and am entering year 2. Let me know if you still need info

Hi Doug, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Please meet @pgf, who has also been diagnosed with gallbladder cancer.
Has your wife started the new chemo regimen yet? How is she doing both in terms of side effects and emotionally? It must've been a blow to hear the tumor grew instead of shrinking with the first chemo. How are you!?
