Hello Sir, my mother was diagnosed with salivary gland cancer (parotid gland cancer) on 28th. It is in an advanced stage. She's 69, and on blood thinners. She is really scared and asked me to get a second opinion. Kindly refer someone who can help us through this condition.
We need to check few more details. Whether surgery done or not? Generally, surgery remains 1st step and on safe hands the age mentioned is really no an adverse factor.

CA-125 marker result came for my mother's report. The result is 1200 u/ml and the reference is 35u/ml. She was diagnosed with a ovarian tumor three days ago and is going to be operated on 19-7-21. the tumor is early stage but the CA-125 result really bothers me. could u please clear my doubts?

In my opinion, there are other options apart from surgery, they should be tried and surgical options can wait till a later stage.
She needs a stage-wise diagnosis and treatment which may include CT scan or PET CT.
But with virtual platform, it's highly possible that some important detail pertaining to your mother's course of treatment could have been overlooked.
If the surgery has been performed by now and she doesn't present with severe symptoms that are difficult to handle, then things may have worked, but if her condition is critical, then we will advise you to reach out to other specialists - Oncologists In India.
If you have any other doubt, then reach out to me, clinicspots team or other specialists, also let clinicspots know if you have any location-specific requirements for finding desired specialists, take care!

I have breast cancer, but there are no mutations in the genetic test in 70 genes, what could cause cancer?
Female | 28
Breast cancer can have various causes, and not all cases are linked to genetic mutations. Factors like age, family history, hormones, reproductive history, etc. can also contribute to breast cancer risk. It's a complex disease and personalized treatment plans are required. Consult with an oncologist for accurate guidance.
