Stomach Removal The Only Way?

Subject: Stomach Removal The Only Way?
Date: 03/01/2005
Hello,

My wife has stomach cancer. The doctors are not using any radiation or suggesting any surgery. It seems that these two components are a major of other peoples recovery. Anyone with success with just chemo alone?
She's a 27 year old asian female. The cancer has metastatic to her intestines, possibly further, but not sure.

She's currently experiencing a small intestine blockage that's making things worse. The chemo treatment is ECF - With F (5FU) given to her as an IV drip for 21 days. But since she was unable to eat anything from the blockage, her white blood cell counts were too low to continue.

Would love to here from someone with possibly a simular experience, what can I expect next?
should we move her to a different hospital that will be more aggresive?

Help please
Dethsay
