@lovingwifeterry, it can sometimes be a winding road to a firm diagnosis. This must be unsettling to now shift to accepting bile duct cancer, also called cholangiocarcinoma. To help you connect with others, I moved your message to this existing discussion:
- Cholangiocarcinoma - Bile Duct Cancer - anyone else dealing with this? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cholangiocarcinoma-bile-duct-cancer-anyone-else-dealing-with-this/

Here you can connect with others like @afrancesca @kjrita @suchita90 @jerrydrennan @billdemarco @wjdemarco @lvtexas @reddino @maria957 @tball3748 and others.

May I ask what treatment plan was discussed with the cancer team?

Yup. Diagnosed last December and am stage 4. Started chemo in March and been doing it ever since. My chemo is maintenance but I've been doing okay. Fortunately I've had no real pain what some of the side effects like brain fog can really get you down. I recommend early palliative care along with whatever treatment your oncologist feels necessary.
