Anyone have cancer with unknown primary?
Cancer | Last Active: 6 days ago | Replies (219)Comment receiving replies
My brother has a growth on his liver that Dr’s say has metastasized from else where but they cannot find the primary anywhere. They will be starting a chemo after a very long wait now.
Has anyone else gone through this and if so, what kind of chemo did you have and how was it on your body? Thankyou

@sylvia67, as if cancer wasn't tough enough, you've also learned your brother's cancer cannot be clearly identified. I hope @cindylb @rita8898 will return to share their experiences with you.
Sylvia, I assume the long wait before starting chemo was so they could figure out how the cancer behaved to know what type of chemo to start him on. Not all chemo is the same. Do you know what drugs he'll be getting? How are you doing through all this?
