    I had carboplatin, taxol til they quit working. Are you being treated at a large cancer center? Never heard of those other things. ….If it works go for it.

    My brother has recently been given a preliminary diagnosis of peritoneal cancer. Curious if there are any males on this particular thread that can share their experiences? Awaiting final diagnosis and treatment plan within the next couple of days. Ascites has been a big issue, along with severe weight loss, no appetite and abdominal pain.
