I do consider the quality of life vs treatment issues very seriously. I feel 100% now and my labs agree except my CA19-9 is creeping near 200 and recent PET shows suspicion behind liver tumors that were embolized in Y90. The tumor board reviewed my case and feel I have a window now that recision of the liver tumors is advisable. And if a tumor is beginning behind, they will extract it as well. I am considering this rather than chemo as I know eventually my body will say no to it. But life is good right now and if I do my part, eat right, exercise, etc maybe can join you in through the keyhole of survival. The number is 12% now, could move even increase more this year! Don’t give up unless you can no longer laugh and ❤️

I love what you have shared. Right now my husband and I are in Playa del Carmen in Mexico enjoying a warm weather break from a very cold Colorado winter. I'm not sure what "embolized" means or Y90. Is that the year they were embolized? I would consider surgery or SBRT if a tumor (or small number of tumors) showed up. Or perhaps IRE, NanoKnife or Cyberknife. I'm getting a little out of my depth here in understanding which are possible in that situation. Please keep us informed about how things are developing for you. I'm so glad you are feeling well now!
