My father is still bile leaking. It has been 1 month, he hasn’t recovered yet becauseof that bile leak. When the J-P drain is set to suction, bile come out a lot, 60 ml per hour, when it’s set to gravity, bile come out not much. Don’t know which way is good , suction or gravity. He is too weak to receive chemo. We will see Dr. Kelly in UCSF mid of May, also, we will see UC David Oncologist on May 4. Hope they can help my father to solve the bile leaking problem. We all worry about the cancer already spreaded out through the bile leak, because the hole is located at the liver duct where the cancer is.
Debbie, thank you so much for your valuable advices. Yes, I did send a consultation request to UCSF GI Oncology. I was told that Dr. Kate Kelly’s appointment was already scheduled to mid of May. I will schedule an appointment with her. I am really encouraged by your sharing. Will try my best to help my dad fight with CC. Thanks again. Will post updates.
DaiCatherine, thank you for your sharing and suggestions. I posted my Dad’s case under Introductions and General Information.
ctwong81, thank you so much for sharing such a good news. My father is 79 years old. He was diagnosed CC 5 weeks ago. The doctor suggested surgery. So 10 days ago, he had surgery. But the tumor was not able to removed. Only the gallbladder was removed. He was very weak and got infaction after the surgery. No treatment is able to be applied on him now. I am really regret for choosing the surgery. Since we live just 1.5 hours driving to the UCSF, I wonder whether my father can join the clinical trial or not.
