Leptomeningeal metastasis

Looking for information of leptomeningeal metastases.  My mum was given months to live from no where. No treatment options available? Is this normal?... chemo was mentioned but told it would just make her ill, give her maybe sepsis etc.  Would only maybe give her 1 month max ..?

  • Hello Ag21 and welcome to the Cancer Chat community.

    I hope this information we have about leptomeningeal metastases will be useful, but for any further insight and advice I would suggest giving our team of cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all they can to answer your questions about your mum's diagnosis.

    Hopefully some of our members, if they have experience of this type of cancer, will offer their support and share their experiences with you soon as well.

    We're thinking of you Ag21 and wishing you and your mum all the very best at this difficult time.

    Kind regards,
