Hello and thanks for posting

Jaundice can happen when the liver is under extra strain either from the cancer itself, chemotherapy, or from general inflammation. Steroids are often used to to help reduce inflammation and support the liver while things settle.

It's understandable to be worried but jaundice doesn't always mean that chemotherapy has to stop. Whether you can restart will depend on your liver function blood tests and many people are able to continue with their treatment once the jaundice improves. Sometimes the doctors may have to adjust the dose of chemotherapy.

It's good that you feeling well and your tumour markers have improved. Your specialist team are better placed to advise you on the next steps as they are familiar with all your medical details.

If you have a specialist nurse involved in your care, then perhaps they can provide you with further information .and support You often have to call and leave them a message, and they will get back to you.  

I hope this is of some help. Give us a ring if you would like to talk anything over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
