What happens after treatment?

I have already had my tumor removed from my foot, but the doctors would like to do preventative chemo to that area. It is called isolated limb perfusion. I was wondering if anyone else has had experience with this and could give me an idea of what happened after you went through the treatment.

    Hello,

    You may want to consider doing a search of the CSN by entering words into the search bar at the top of the screen. Using words such as limb perfusion may help you to find members who have had this treatment. You can then contact them through the internal CSN email system to see if they would like to share their experiences.

    I hope this information has been of help.

    Take care and be well,
