Re: fecal control and odor

Aside from booted out to an outhouse, psyllium husk provides healthy fiber. Chlorofresh could possibily help with order as it promotes good gut flora.

Re: Lung met

My surgeon was Dr. Kern. He was fantastic, very experienced and knowledgable surgeon. His bedside manner is second to none. He has the longest white coat of any specialist I have ever seen.
I met all of them and I would request Dr. Kern if I had to go back.

Re: VAXINIA (CF33 + hNIS) clinical trial

Hey R_R! Wow, you are in this trial.
I read about a virus that can kill cancer a few months back. I was impressed by it and seemed out of this world how they found this potential cancer killer virus.
Will be keeping an eye for more of your updates!
All the best,

Re: osteoarthrosis - platelet rich plasma and stem cell implant for oncologic patients?

Are you in the USA? If so, I can give you a contact for a stem cell doctor, expert in this field. He has patients come to him from all over the USA. He might could give you some advice/guidance being a cancer patient NED.

Thank you for your thoughts on this, Rp. Much appreciated. I see sinister things fixing to happen within the next year mostly likely due to increasing profit over patient scenarios. Hands swiping hands.

Re: Lung nodules and genetic testing

Playbook answer per SOC is what you got. It's not them so of course they are not worried. I would push for 3-6 month scans and bloodwork. What is you CEA? Any panels high or low? I carried a lung met for 3 1/2 yrs (day 1 of dx) before it grew to 5 mm and by that time I had 3 more, One turned out to ...
