My MIL had chemoembolization on her liver last Fri. - she is so frail & weak - I hope everything will be OK - the dr. said it went well.  Can anyone shed light on this procedure?

I have had about 4 chemoembo's, they are really tough the days that follow the treatment. I lived on vanilla wafer cookies and peaches, Weird but they were about the only little bit of food that I could handle. It was hard on my family to see me have no appetite. I think about after 10 days it would get better and slowly I would get my strength back. I do believe these treatments did save my life, they did stop the growth of tumors in liver, but then it spread to my lungs, so now we are doing treatments to try to stop or get rid of these. I would go through another chemoembo right a way if liver activity was my major problem. Any questions let Me know, I don't mind.
