in Kidney Cancer #1

I had my procedure done January 12 to hopefully kill the five tumors in my liver that were no longer responding to Sutent.

I just did scans on 2/15 and all five tumors were blacked out, dead.  Supposedly my tumors are gone in my liver after one month.  Radioactive isotope work up to 90 days so go back for more scans in Aprils

 

I still have tumors in my lungs but are under control still with sutent.  If this stops working I guess onto either Opdivo or Cabometryx.

    Glad for the update

    my husband is in the process of getting approval for the Y90. How were your side affects.  He has multiple lesions in his liver. 

     

    thanks
