Gallbladder Cancer Survivors - Roll Call

Hello!

I am a GBC survivor looking for others. I was diagnosed in March of 2021. My gallbladder was removed due to stones, then pathology found it full of adenocarcinoma, stage II-b. I underwent treatment with a liver resection followed by 6 months on Xeloda. After 5 months, a lesion was found in my liver and cryoablated. Not certain if that lesion was a metastasis or not, but my CEA etc had been elevated, so probably was. Now I am on a survivorship program getting DNA checked and a scan every 6 months. So far, things are going well and I feel pretty healthy. There is always that fear of reoccurrence however.

I would like to hear more from others who have undergone treatment and how things are going afterwards for you.

Thanks for sharing your experience!
