Hi Marion,
Can you recommend some names of shakes and protein powder that I can buy. Am willing to try anything, he had ensure plus for sometime but that makes him really ill. I have noticed that he has gone lactose intolerant after surgery. He loves his coffee and tea and I am trying to limit his intake to one cup daily as I was told that caffeine is bad for him. Is this right?. He is also on creon the pancreatic enzyme to assist with his digestion. Thanks for all the handy hints. Godbless. Greetings to you and your family.
All the best, PhilLainy wrote:I would advise that you discuss anything you give your husband with your Oncologist. While it was Teddy’s ONC who ordered the B12 you really should check with the ONC first, or whomever is the one in charge of the Chemo.
You really will be fine. The more you learn the stronger you will get. A CC diagnosis is enough to scare anyone. Take care.Many thanks Lainy, will do that, I will be seeing the Oncologist on Friday.

Darla is right in that here, we have so many caring and wonderful people here that know what you are going through right now. I can’t help you with your chemo questions as my dad never had that, but I am certain that others will be along soon that can help you.
Please keep coming back here as you will get a ton of support from everyone here. And feel free to ask any and all questions that you have and I know that there will be someone here who can help you.
My best wishes to you and your family,
Gavin
Thanks Gavin, wish you and your family all the very best
Hello Lainy,
Thanks so much for your advice, the B12 shots sound good. I will talk to my GP and have him administer those shots. Does it cause any side effects to the chemo. Thanks for also assisting me with the search engine, that would be great. I must admit, I do not have much time as I work and take care of my hubby and our 3 kids so pardon me if I delay in replying. Please give my best wishes to Teddy. Hope he is doing really well. Take carePhil
Hi Darla,
Thanks so much for replying. Yes, I did get a second opinion and both Specialists confirmed exactly the same results. I am posting the comment on his pathology report soon after the operation:

Diagnosis: Common bile duct and cystic duct: Well differentiated adenocaricinoma, consistent with cholingiocarcinoma, perineural invasion,
Lymph Nodes: metastatic adenocarcinoma in 1 of 10 nodes.
Gallbladder: chronic cholecystitis with fibrosis
Pancreas: Focal intraepithithelial neoplasia
