First, evaluate her general condition as well as her disease progression. According to her histopathological report and staging of the disease proper treatment plan has to be made. Starting with Chemotherapy as it affects the disease, further plans of action will be made. But the entire treatment plan will be made by an oncologist depending on her general condition to undergo the treatment.

My aunt got a tumor in the kidney in 2014 and found cancer. She was 35 at that time. Since then, she has been surviving with only the right kidney. She is a diabetic patient too. Last month diagnosed with some abnormality on her other kidney too. Though it was nothing severe and was treated with medicine. But we are worried that if the other kidney also gets affected, what are her survival chances?
Having only one kidney does not affect the quality of life to a very high extent, but any disease or disorder of the remaining kidney can be fatal and will require immediate treatment. The most important thing is such a scenario is regular follow ups with nephrologist and routine investigations such as blood tests and ultrasonography tests. This improves and also increases the chances of survivals.

You should consult with your mother’s oncologist about additional clarification and instructions for her uterine cancer in stage 3. It is recommended that a gynecologic oncologist should be visited for more management of uterine cancer.

Sir my mother has been affected by peri ampullary carcinoma. She is 45 years old now. I need help from you. In the world i don't have anyone except my mother.
Female | 45
This form of cancer causes symptoms such as jaundice, weight loss, and belly pain. It starts when cells near the ampulla of Vater begin growing out of control. Treatment typically involves surgery followed by chemotherapy. You must collaborate closely with her physician to determine the most effective course of action for your mother. Be strong and be there for her during this difficult time.

My mother is 52 Years old house wife and she's survive in chest Cancer past 3 years and didn't well Dr do treatment but feeling getting bad
Female | 52
Cancer is tough, but there's hope. Please let the doctor know if she feels worse even after treatment. Some symptoms such as coughing, pain, or feeling weak are of multiple possibilities. The doctor possibly has to ascertain if the cancer has recurred or if there is another problem. Waiting is not a good choice especially when you tell them how your mother is doing.

My brother had gone Whipple surgery but cist was showing in pet scan
Male | 41
Post-surgery, fluid collections resembling cysts often occur harmlessly on scans. Typically, these dissipate independently without causing symptoms. However, if the cyst triggers symptoms or expands, consulting your oncologist ensures everything is well.

Namaste, My father lives in Ahmedabad, Gujarat and is in terminal stage of cancer. It started as oral cancer which was removed surgically but unfortunately has metastasized to his lungs and now his liver. He took 6 rounds of chemotherapy, but it spread anyway. He is at end of life now and we are desperately looking for Ayurveda treatment or options that can ease this situation.
Male | 65
Metastasis means the cancer has spread to other body areas. The terminal stage signals the disease's progression. Pain, weakness, and no appetite are symptoms. Ayurveda uses herbs and healthy practices to ease discomfort and lift life quality. But consult an expert to plan the ideal ayurvedic treatment approach for your dad's specific case.

Your uncle has squamous carcinoma. It starts in flat cells. Cancer often makes people weak and hopeless. Support him emotionally and physically. Encourage Ayurveda treatment. Tell him to stay positive. Make sure he eats well and rests enough.

As my uncle has recently been diagnosed with cancer, I was trying to read about radiotherapy on the internet. Is it really the best and a risk-free procedure?
As per my understanding patient is suffering from cancer and you want to know about the best available treatment. The treatment for any cancer in general depends on the stage of cancer, location of cancer, patient's age, and associated comorbidities and other factors.
Treatment mainly includes surgery according to location of cancer, radiation, chemotherapy or a combination of these. In advanced cancer palliative care is of more importance when routine treatment are not preferred.
Consult oncologists, who on evaluation of the patient will guide you for the best treatment available. Hope our answer helps you.

My brother in law is diagnosed liver cancer by the Doctors in Cuttack, Odisha. He is relatively poor with almost no resources to support the treatment. With my limited income of around Rs 8 lakhs per year, I need to support him. The Regional Research center named " Acharya Harihar Cancer Research center" at Cuttack seems having no modern technology to treat the same ( Please correct me, if I am wrong). Request you to guide me which hospital can be the best choice. I can spend maximum upto 3-4 laks from my savings. Thanks in advance for the help. he needs immediate treatment.

Hi, my father was diagnosed with carcinoma right colon, features are suggestive of well-differentiated mucinous papillary adenocarcinoma of the colon with metastasis to the lymph node and treated with extended radical right hemicolectomy side to side ileocolic anastomosis done under GA one year back followed by chemotherapy. We need a second opinion as his blood report reveals a presence of 17.9 ng/mL of carcinoembryonic antigen. Can you please suggest me a good hospital in Bangalore with less cost? The previous doctor suggested a PET CT scan.
As per my understanding, your father is suffering from carcinoma of the right colon with metastasis to lymph node and treated surgically and chemotherapy. Once any cancer which has spread to the lymph nodes it means it is stage 3 where the prognosis is not so good. But still consult an oncologist. Hope our answer helps you.
