I joined this forum years ago but haven’t been on in awhile. I thought I’d post that I’m still here too. Currently NED! Life is good! Don’t give up you stage IVs. Love to all of you! Diana

I used to do intravenous alpha lipoic acid. Might want to read Dr. Burt Berkson on that and also I follow Joe Tippens protocol with a low dose of fenben. Sounds like you are doing all the right stuff though. I also agree with the decision to not remove the primary tumor so she could get on chemo qui...

Hi all, it’s been a long time since I posted and I never have started a thread. I have been confirmed NED after 11 years! I have not been on here in awhile, but those that are struggling probably should hear this! Incurable cancer is survivable and possibly beatable! I thank my doctors at MD Anderso...

Hola, I hardly ever post, but I’ve had both lungs resected and then little spots showing up. I’m a MD Anderson patient and I’ve had cyrtoabeltion twice which is freezing it. It’s been in the same spot with cyrtoabeltion and the second time we iced more of it. That was back in Dec. of 17 last time an...

Hello all. I am just checking in. I updated my signature line. They are making leaps and bounds in cancer research. One should never lose hope and know that you can be the person in it for the long game.

I don't get on here much because I'm working. From my signature, you can see that if it metastasizes at some point, you just keep trying to take it out. Where is home?

I am coming up to the five year mark as well. I had my liver respected and Mets to my lungs which were respected. Feeling so blessed and buy that I haven't even been on here. Great news for you.

Of course, you can get surgeries at stage 4. I had a local doctor that treated me that way and I ran to MD Anderson. Let us know how your second opinion goes.

Well Skypuppy, it has been a while since I got on here. Everyone in the family had the swine flu. What a season. I go back to MDA in 2 weeks. Already all stressed out, but glad you are getting your answers. Just wanted to tell you since we never got to talk that I am taking vitamin c and alpha Lipoi...

It sounds like they're treating you aggressively because they do want you to live. You obviously have a lot to live for. I think that what you have to do is make a decision deep down and what you feel your intuition is telling you to do.I only say this because I do have mixed feelings about chemo. H...

Hang in there. I know I don't post often only because I really don't know what to say, but don't give in. I can only imagine how you feel. I just had my lungs resected and now they are following a spot on my liver so back in three months and more medicals bills. I am also a mom and the breadwinner t...

I just got done with the book Radical Remission. People that were sent home to die and lived. It helped lift me up after my latest surgery. Frenchie, you have a great attitude. Hang in there. I just returned from my trip to get my head together. I am doing as much as I can to beat this.

Awesome news Ann!

So exciting! Good luck. Prayer up for you and Chris!

They told me that they often drop the oxyplatin on the last rounds. I actually ended early as I was too sick to continue.
