Anyone have cancer with unknown primary?

My husband had been diagnosed with metastasized cancer on spine, hip, ribs, and shoulder. After biopsi, it was determined to be Adenocarcinoma type. That was in March. Since then, he has had a pet scan, endoscopy of
complete GI track, endoscope of neck/throat. Now they are getting ready to say it is CUP, and start some type
of "shotgun treatment". He was walking 5 miles a day back in November, but is tired and week. He only walks
one mile a day now, and can a little work for short periods. God has given him extra doses of patience
(not of his own) . He is going to MD Anderson in Gilbert Arizona. Any input from those who have experienced this? Thanks!

Hello @ford68travel and welcome to Mayo Connect. It does sound like you and your husband have had quite a journey as he is dealing with some serious health issues.

If you are comfortable sharing more, what type of symptoms was he experiencing when the metastasized cancer was diagnosed?
