Hello,
My darling husband, age 72, was diagnosed with a well-defined NET on his ileum this past fall. It was discovered because a crash on his electric bike required a CT scan. His tumor was biopsied at UVA Med.Center, and now he is being seen at MDAnderson. We live in El Paso, TX. He has a grade 1 tumor, but his mesentary" lit up like a Christmas tree" on another CT scan with PET dotate; there were many lymph nodes. Further biopsy of a lymph node in the left supraclavicular area revealed metastasis from the ileal tumor. He is waiting for a treatment plan from his doctors. He is very nervous about this cancer growing in his body. When he was at MDAnderson in Dec. he contracted covid and has a hard time recovering from that. He has a persistent cough and prepetually feels cold. He is finally getting his strength back, slowly and surely, but has too much anxiety. Anyone out there like him?
