Hi, My diagnosis seems similar to yours. I had a right hemi and liver resection (gall bladder, appendix, illeocal valve gone too) 3 weeks after diagnosis. Then I had 12 cycles of FOLFOX plus Avastin. Additionally, I participated in a 4 month Phase 1 vaccine trial. I've been NED since surgery in Aug...

I was diagnosed on July 22, 2004. Easy to remember that day, it was my 43rd birthday. I was given six months to live but told I could die at any minute. While I was driving around to get my medical records to go to a top notch hospital, a car tried to pass me on the shoulder in heavy traffic and hi...

Consult a surgeon and go for an outright resection if possible. That'll give you better odds.

Hi. Welcome to the club but sorry to hear about your diagnosis. The good thing is you've had surgery. Just go through the chemo to mop up anything that's left. Hoping for the best outcome for you.

Noticed a few nice NED posts recently on the forum. I know there are old threads on stage 4 survivors. Been feeling some anxiety lately, over the future and the uncertainty of it, etc. I'm sure most of you here know what I mean. Just thought a fresh thread for long term stage 4 survivors would be a ...

Just wondering, does your onc agree with you taking L-glutamine?

Great news! Thanks for sharing.

Good news is ALWAYS welcome. Congrats on being NED.

Sorry to hear this. Just wondering why HIPEC isn't an option. Maybe you should get a second opinion. Don't ever give up.

Awesome and inspiring news.

Hi all. I'm a plastic and reconstructive surgeon. Also a dad to 2 wonderful boys.

I dont have anything against alternative treatments. But my personal stand would be to do all of them as maintenance AFTER traditional, evidence-based therapy. Yes that means surgery and chemo.

Hi all. Just an update on myself. Currently on my 5th session of FOLFOX plus Erbitux. Chemo has been relatively kind to me I think. Neuropathy isnt so bad. In fact I have been able to practice surgery in between cycles of chemo without any problems. Noticed some thinning of my hair and lots of loose...

Sorry to hear about your husband. First of all do not lose hope. There are always options whether traditional or alternative, evidence-based or otherwise. I would suggest you look into HIPEC. I have no personal experience or testimonial but based on my limited knowledge of oncologic sugery its may b...

Hi Sha, go for the resection while its an option. It'll offer the best chance of potential cure.
