6 months without chemo could be a year with chemo just don't know what to do frightened of chemo making me feel worse with what little time I have with family .
Hi Izzi so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. It is a very hard decision to make. If it were me I would try the chemo and see how you get on with it as you could always stop it if it doesn't agree with you. I have had chemo and it was tough but you can get through it. Also I think in a year medicine can change and there could be some new treatment, trials available. I am on another forum for incurable cancer and the people on there have all lived way past what the oncologist predicted. I have incurable cancer and not been given a date, I don't want to know. I am determined to live every day and to enjoy it, but is is about the quality of your life. What do your family think? I do wish you lots of luck on whatever decision you make, it is up to you at the end of the day.
Hi I’m new here my husband had a endoscopy last week and was told he got stomach cancer .thr doctor who done the endoscopy she called us in and said she was very worried ,and took a biopsy waiting for result .
Mine all started when I had a bad stomach and i ended up having a ulcer which burst and that's when they found the cancer but that was months after I've been complaining about the pain which lead to the cancer spreading because as it burst it hit the cancer and spread the cells. Also I've had a bad shoulder for months constant aching which i told the doctors but they ignored but once diagnosed the doctors said that is a sign of stomach cancer. I wish you and your husband well .x
Thank you my husband started complaining about indigestion and heartburn on the 28th of June in July I noticed he was losing weight so we thought to go to the GP because in year 2000 he had a colon cancer,had operation and 6 moth of Chemo , every two years it was having colonoscopy.in July they done a different colonoscopy because is on blood thinners he had a colonography and the colon was clear but they found a lump .the endoscopy confirmed cancer. The doctor she made us very worried because she said she was very worried,I’m constantly googling is symptoms .sorry for such long explanation .
