Keeley Mums cancer has spread too far and has been deemed too aggressive for surgery. It started off in the breast and has spread to her brain, throat, lungs, liver and now also into her lymph nodes... She has been referred to oncology, who will look at her case and decide whether she is a fit for chemotherapy, and once they meet her they will decide if she is strong enough to go through it. IF mum is able to have the chemo, she will either be given a course of tablets to take, I believe they are one tablet a week. Or she will be given chemo via an IV and will have to go to once every three weeks for a few hours. If mum decides not to have chemo she will be referred to palliative care
Female | 67
If breast cancer advances to the brain, throat, lungs, liver, and lymph nodes, it is advanced cancer. Breast Cancer naturally develops in the cells of the human breast. But when cancer cells are balooned in size, it is called breast tumor. Chemotherapy treatment is regarded as one of the most popular therapies for advanced Breast Cancer. Chemotherapy can be done as an outpatient procedure if your mom can physically handle the treatment..

My mom age 49 yrs diagnosed with liver cancer And it has spread to the gallbladder. And Because Of water abdomen Is fully tight. Jaundice is very high. What will be the best treatment for her?
As per my understanding the patient is suffering from liver and gallbladder cancer, and is having ascites and high bilirubin. Ascites is definitely a complication associated with advanced cancer. Doctors may do regular paracentesis to remove this fluid. It is advisable to consult an oncologist and religiously follow his advice and do the best for the patient. Along with treatment patient may need psychological support to deal with the disease. Regular nursing and family support will help patient. Kindly consult an oncologist for evaluation.

Male | 44
Cancer on the tonsil, spreading to your tongue and gum, is serious. With G2 stage cancer, treatment is crucial for survival. Treatment options may involve surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy combined. The aim is removing cancer cells and preventing further spread. Your treatment plan depends on specific details of your case and overall health condition. Discuss thoroughly with your oncologist to determine the best approach. Early detection and appropriate treatment increase chances of recovery significantly.

In palliative care patients with serious illnesses are provided with comfort, pain relief and support with the goal of enhancing their quality of life. It does not mean that there is no hope, but doctors advice this when curative treatment are no longer available. If you're confused you can seek a second opinion from another oncologist.

Hello, I am experiencing some symptoms of Prostate Cancer. Is there any way to check if you have prostate cancer or not without visiting a hospital?
Consulting a clinician and getting thoroughly evaluated is the right way to get yourself diagnosed and treated. Just searching, reading and trying to match your symptoms to a particular disease will lead to unnecessary stress, anxiety and delay in treatment. So please get examined by Urology Consultation doctors in Mumbai, or any city of convenience, and if some pathology is detected then get treated.

Since last month, I have been feeling bloated and uncomfortable all the time. Initially I thought of acidity problems and tried usual medicine and home remedies. However, since last week feeling a kind of pain as well. I visited our family doctor in Bahrampur and he added further tests including pelvic and stomach ultrasounds. I read about all these on the internet. My blood report didn't come good and I'm waiting for the ultrasound report as well. Am I experiencing pancreatic cancer symptoms?
Male | 25
Bloating, fullness and discomfort of abdomen in females should be taken seriously, especially in post-menopausal women. A correct diagnosis will require ultrasound of abdomen pelvis and further evaluation with CT scan or MRI. Also few tumor markers like CA-125, CEA, AFP, etc can take is closer to the diagnosis
