No resection but he had surgery? Surgery on what?
Resection is surgery.

Almost everyone is referred to an oncologist (in BC).
My mother wasn't because she was diagnosed late - died 5 weeks after diagnosis.
What happened at the oncology meeting lies on a tape - if you or hubby recorded the meeting.
Sometimes people ask about side effects, then decide they want to think about it first.
Perhaps that's what happened or surgery was discussed.
Rarely do patients get turned down for chemo - even pancreatic cancer.
Only one event comes to mind where someone in BC was told only a few months and she too came in to these groups ranting away. As it turned
out, it was a different liver cancer.
Otherwise, BC is the best place for cancer treatment, barring more details from you about your area or the doctor. I've saved the name of
the doctor involved with the situation (above).
