      Well your oncologist is the only one who can give a definitive answer to that one.

      I would caution you against taking advise, no matter how well intended , from non medical people.

      My wife was diagnosed with cancer and within a week she was on chemo. After nine weeks she had major major surgery. I emphasised "major" as she had her entire stomach removed.

        I cannot believe how great her recovery has been. She was overweight and now has lost over 30kgs and looks great.
        She is away in Townsville visiting our son, she drove up with one of her girl friends . It is a two day drive.

        I thank you for your thoughtfulness.

        Where in the Uk are you?
