Subject: Anyone out there with Partial Bowel Obstruction that's nonsurgical, chemo only option
Date: 04/28/2008

Hi -

I'm posting for my husband who has colon cancer stage IV with mets to the liver.  He now has partial bowel obstruction due to tumors that grew in his small intestines. And his doctor said the tumors cannot be operated because of the quantity and location.  And only chemo is the only option to treat this.  I wanted to see if there are anyone out there who has gone through this or if you know of anyone and if the chemo treated the partial obstruction and how long before they've seen improvement with their obstruction.  My husband has gone through his second chemo since we found out that he had partial obstruction in March.  He's running out of patience and have suffered a while.  I just want to know if it will get better.
