Dear Gamary, Thanks again for the information. Can you tell me where you received the Y90. I am interested in knowing for possible future treatment. Also, what was the difficulty of receiving the treatment and was it one treatment or several treatments? Were there any bad side effects? Did it cause fatigue? I look forward to your reply. Beth

Side effects were minimal. A little radioactive and sore for a day or two!
It requires two visits a set up visit and then nthe procedure. During both there is anesthesia. It is not a cure but a stabilizer and allowed me to go on to the pancreadectomy. I suppose it is most helpful when the liver tumors are in the same areA as mine are.
