I was diagnosed with stage 4 treatable not cureable after having my gallbladder removed with complications unfortunately the cancer has spread to my abdomen lymph nodes and small tumours at the side of my chest. I am having chemo and ummetheraphy toshrink the tumours I have had my 7th session today yesterday I had a scan to see if it has shrunk after 12 wks of diagnosis anyone else have gallbladder cancer I would love to hear from you 

  • I'm sorry to hear your cancer has spread Deborah but fingers crossed the scan will show the treatment you've been having has been successful in shrinking the tumours.

    Hopefully some of our members who have had gallbladder cancer will be along soon to offer their support and share their stories with you, but if there is anything you'd like to discuss further with one of our cancer nurses, they can be contacted on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They are there to support you and will do all they can to provide you with any other information and/or advice you may be seeking at this time.

    Do let us know how you get on Deborah - we'll have our fingers crossed for good news.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
