Yesterday my husband got his second Y 90 therapy. He did well and the IR doctor a gem of a doctor said he did very well.
However on Monday we had an oncologist meeting and she basically said we have limited therapies for you. Where do you want to live happily in your home country or her.
I was so upset that she took two things away and am still upset.HOPE can never be taken away! And this was the day before his Y90 therapy. He is also on Lonsurf.
I am so upset with her I explained to the nurses of IR this and they said you never take HOPE away and he is doing the treatment Y90 and lonsurf. Time to have a long chat with oncology team. Too many gaffs made.
Please help someone with your thoughts

Gosh I hate that for you. Should you get another opinion from a different oncologist? She says they have limited therapies for you, ok, what are they? Is there anyone else on the oncology team you trust that you can talk to? Sure doesn't seem hopeless to me if they went to the extent of doing the Y90 treatment.
Let me say this strongly. Where there is life there is always hope, miracles happen everyday. He's made it through this for a long time so there's no reason to give up now. Being a strong Christian I always take faith over fear and don't let a person in a white coat decide who lives or dies. That doesn't mean you have to be Christian to get help from above. We are all God's children.
How is he handling the side effects from this last Y90 shoot?
Keep posting!
