Y-90 liver cancer treatment: What's your experience?

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!

Diane thanks for your response. I agree with you and first and foremost my daily prayers do not stop yes I will look for another oncologist elsewhere or another team there
The Y90 yesterdsy went very well. Recovery good and kept him lying flat for four hours to make sure no bleeding. IR doctor a sweetheart came before and after to see us. We stayed close to hospital overnight in case of need and came home today
So far so good tired perky no nausea eating lightly resting well so hope tonight is good. Tomorrow labs and Friday start cycle 2 of lonsurf.
If the white labs do this again I will be upfront that they do not have crystal ball.
HOPE and treatments we still have
Btw look up hunter college and research on olive oil for colorectal cancer and what they found. Beginnings of hope something important.
Keep in touch
