Hello Colleen, I am doing well considering I have had bad news.
After having a PET-CT . They found tumors in my liver.
Therefore, there will be no surgery. I start either or both
chemo or immune therapy in two weeks. The next step is to get a port on my chest. So far, I have had no pain.
My oncologist is concerned that I want treatment without a feeding tube, but I think I can handle any possible weight loss. I have a meeting with their staff dietitian today. We are moving fast to start treatment.
Hopefully, we can shrink the tumors.
