Chemotherapy and placebos to control nausea
[i]"It’s unthinkable to give a placebo to someone to treat their cancer, but could we use one to treat chemotherapy’s well-known side effects? Unfortunately, we may never be able to answer this question because the biggest obstacle to finding out whether it would work is emotional rather than scientific

Richters Biopsy Update
Hi everyone, just thought I would post an update on my axillary node biopsy. The results showed that there was no evidence of RT in my lymph node. This good news was quickly followed by a warning that just because it didnt show up in the axillary node it didnt mean that that the richters hadnt returned

TNBC and recurrence
I am 47 and have undergone MRM for TNBC grade 3 stage 2A node negative a year back. I had 4 Epirubicin + 4 Paclitaxel chemo cycles. A PET scan at the time of surgery had not revealed any metastases. With TNBC, the sceptre of recurrence always looms large. A few studies about aspirin, taurine and turmeric

Nanotech Methods May Be the Future of Cancer Treatment
At Rice University they are blowing up cancer cells with nanoparticle "bombs." Like integrative immunotherapy, the new cancer-fighting technique kills cancer cells without harming surrounding healthy cells. Experimental trials have been so successful in destroying aggressive and resistant cancer cells

She told me that the FLAIR trial will be starting in 6-8 weeks time but as my WBC is at 387 and my Hg is 95 she would like me to start treatment now. I am 52 years old now and

CT scan series part 10 - Clinical Trial CT scan Context
