My wife was diagnosed with NET in April 2022, with mass on tail of pancreas, and too many tumors on the liver to count. Our team started her on chemo pills, along with Lanreotide monthly injections for the last 9 months. The NET has been reduced enough that cancer team is ready for surgery March 1st to remove mass and as many spots on liver as possible. The team believes that they can make it a maintenance issue only afterwards. How have you been able to tolerate the 2 years of chemo?

I don’t know why I have tolerated the chemo treatments. So far I have had 38 total treatments. My two year mark will be in April 2023.
I’m so lucky that I’ve tolerated the chemo. I go every other week for treatments and have taken time off to go on vacation and took a month off for Cataract surgery and the Holidays. Thanks for reaching out to me. 🙏🏻
