They call it signet cell adenocarcinoma of the duodenum so it is in the duodenum below the stomach and above the intestine. They did surgery 12/28 tried to remove the cancer but could not get it all. They did a ct scan and said the cancer had spiraled around the aorta and the ivc, they say there is something to treat it but they are unsure of what yet, today he is having surgery to reconnect his bowels and close his wound up, but say it will probably be a few months before he is ready for any type of treatment. He was in generally good health he just turned 35 on 1/11 (spent his birthday in surgery). I was told to look into enzymes have you heard anything about them?  Thank you so much for getting back with me. I will appreciate all your knowledge. If I have not given you some info that you need please let me know and I will find out.. Again thank you so much, PLEASE keep in touch.
