Hi Colleen and thanks so much for reaching out! I think I figured out how to get the emails of new notifications so thank you.
My original cancer was squamous cell anal cancer with lymph node involvement. Then it metastasized to the liver.
I was treated for the original tumor and it’s gone but the liver Mets were more concerning.
My dr felt Y90 was the best bet as I was not a surgery candidate.
I have a scan on June 15th to see how it worked. I’m very hopeful.
However it does have side effects and I get daily fevers and extreme fatigue. I’m 4 weeks out from the last procedure.
I’ll keep the group posted as to my results.
