My boy friend is suffer from HCC Stage 4.

We found it last year and had surgery for curative purpose,

but after one month, it gradually spreads to the whole body. 

 

Now it has recurred within liver and met lung, lymph, and abdomen. (His doctor concluded paritoneal seeding.)

We tried Nexavar for 1 and half month, but it does not work. 

 

His doctor suggestes some clinical trial for systematic chemo, but also menthions that don't expect too much effectiveness.

Have any body tried Y-90 for whole body?

Or do you have any suggestions?

 

Please give me some tips for your local treatment.

We can fly to your city for the better treatment.

Please help me. He is only 35 years.
