I did give some info in your other post. Just wondering why surgery is not an option at this point?
My husband has same. Sees great Doc at Stanford that says maintenance chemo is his only option for now. watching for possible clinical trials coming up. On Xeloda and CPT-11.
Good luck and health to you!
