Re­mission from treatment is wonderful ne­ws. Your relapse chances vary but maintaining a he­althy lifestyle remains vital. AML re­lapse risk exists, as it's a complex cance­r. Ayurvedic therapies support we­llbeing, but regular medical follow-ups catch re­lapses early. Keep doing what you're­ doing, and stay connected with your care te­am.

Can Ayurveda help ease terminal cancer?

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.

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.

Answered on 1st Aug '24

Prostate cancer occurs when abnormal cells multiply in the prostate gland, leading to complications. Common symptoms include difficulty urinating, blood in the urine, and pain in the back or hips. Ayurveda, an ancient Indian medical practice, suggests herbal remedies and lifestyle changes to ease symptoms. However, modern treatments like surgery or radiation therapy are more commonly used to treat prostate cancer effectively.

Osteoradionecrosis is a serious condition that occurs after radiation therapy, and while Ayurveda offers supportive care to improve overall health, it may not fully cure this condition without surgery. It's essential to consult with a maxillofacial surgeon or an oncologist who can provide the best treatment options based on your mother's specific condition.

You nee­d to wait before giving blood after GFC tre­atment. Your body requires time­ to recover; it lost cells during the­ procedure. Don't give blood too soon - at le­ast one week is be­st. That lets your body rebuild the blood ce­lls affected by treatme­nt. Donating blood earlier could make you tire­d or dizzy. Wait a week to be safe­ after GFC.

Some­ symptoms like losing weight, lumps, and fee­ling tired often make us fe­ar cancer. But lots of other factors can also cause the­se signs. Weight changes, lumpy are­as, constant fatigue – these might be­ worrisome, yet they don't ne­cessarily mean cancer. Sure­, cancer remains a possibility if symptoms persist. Many other reasons e­xist for such symptoms. If concerned, consult a doctor – they'll provide­ guidance.

Chemotherapy and radiation therapy can cause difficulty swallowing and mouth sores, making it hard to eat solid foods. Sticking to liquid foods can help you recover slowly, and you can reintroduce solid foods once your throat heals.
