Welcome to the Cancer Chat community Mumof3bg although I'm very sorry to hear of your husband's diagnosis.

You can find out about treatment options for Linitis Plastica on our website but if you'd like to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, they're just a phone call away on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

Hopefully some of our members who have been on this journey will share their experiences and advice with you soon but if you don't hear back in the next couple of days, I would recommend using our 'search forum' function in the purple bar above to join in on any other recent discussions you find about this diagnosis. Our members are very friendly and supportive and will do all they can to help.

Kind regards,

Hi, I'm sorry to read about your boyfriends diagnosis.  My sister has just been diagnosed with linitis plastica of the stomach. 

Has your boyfriend managed to received treatment? 

Welcome to Cancer Chat abeano although I'm sorry to hear your sister has been diagnosed with linitis plastica. This must be a very difficult time.

I noticed you were trying to connect with CinnamonGirl. They actually made this post towards the end of 2022 so there is a chance you may not hear back from them.

I really hope that won't be the case, but I just wanted to make you aware in case you hadn't seen when this discussion was last active.

Kind regards,

Hi Steph,  so sorry, I didn't even see that part - my head is all over the place. 

No worries at all abeano.

If you don't receive a reply, then do try and use our 'search forum' option again to find more recent discussions about this on the forum.

I can see you have also made a post in our nurses section of the forum. They will get back to you as soon as you can, but you're very welcome to give them a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m if you'd like to talk things through with them.
