My sister has colon cancer with mets to the liver. She had the originating tumor removed in 1/06. The cancer is aggressive and her liver is not functioning well enough for aggressive chemo so she is on a modified regimin. They cannot get her bilirubin lowered. Anyone have any experience with compromised liver function and how the cancer was treated. Any other treatments beside chemo?
