Well everyone, got bad news today. 3 more lymph nodes showed up on my recent CT scan as cancer. Prognosis is grim. They want me to go in clinical trials.  My option would be for surgeon to go back in and remove those lymph nodes along with more around the pelvic area. They seem to think I have cancer floating around in other places and they will show up. What's your input from anyone out there.  Remember I had rc with 14 lymph nodes also taken out which were all positive.  Any suggestions on a natural way. Thanks.

There's a new book out by Actress Marilu Henner and her husband who had a bad prognosis and beat it with natural food treatment. He is doing well today. I believe he is 10 yrs out. I believe I saw it on Fox news. Book is available at most book stores.
