My 54 year old brother was diagnosed with sclerosing cholangitis and gallbladder cancer last month. They found a mass in his gallbladder. They told him they can't do chemo/radiation as the liver won't be able to handle it or it will kill the liver. I found 2 websites of people who have this liver condition and cancer and were given chemo/radiation. He even went and got a second opinion from Oncologists and both sets of doctors are saying the same thing, no chemo. So why are the doctors telling him that, since I just read that people were given chemo/radiation. He was given 6 months.
