Sorry to hear that the surgery doesn't appear to be an option for you. Diagnosis and treatment can be a bit like a roller coaster ride, and often frustrating. You never really know what cells have escaped the primary tumor, if any, especially at your early stage. It's important to find a treatment that matches your comfort level and can give you some confidence that you will be ok in the long term.
Have the doctors provided alternatives to the chemo treatments? Take care, Lisa

The irony is that everyone believed the surgery would get it all. I’m recovering nicely from my segmentectomy. No other treatment options were offered. I have another appointment with the oncologist to discuss further. Thanks so much.
