My husband was diagnoised in March of 2005 with stomach cancer. He had been told by his other Dr. for a year it was an ulcer and no deffentive test were ever run. My husband couldn't have his stomach removed and the cancer has invaded the wall of his stomach, and instine. He has been a good canidate for chemo, and his blood work is usually good. In June of 2007 he had developed a blockage in his lower bowel and they bypassed the tumor (which they had to leave in), and now he is back in the hospital with the same symtoms, of which he can't keep anything down and lost 7 lbs within 4 days. His Oncologist said the last CT Scan showed that fluid is starting to go around not in his lungs. Does anyone know if this is the very last stages of this disease? I guess I still feel there is so much hope and more things than can be done.
Thanking anyone with some help in advance.
