Confusing, isn't it? So, is it worth it to go forward with dendritic therapy with Nesselhut and Chang, through Meridian? Insanely expensive. The supplements, he explained as "appetizers and deserts," I think, with the "main course" being immunotherapy--the prelude to, then the Ne...

Looking for input on this from educated, intelligent Stage 4 folks, doctors, caregivers, familiar with asymptomatic lung met patients and non-chemo treatment. Skeptics as well as enthusiasts invited to give feedback. Need all the advice I can get: I had another CAT scan--last one had been in January...

New to Forum, so please bear with me. At 55, I was diagnosed with a small distal sigmoidal mass, following a routine colonoscopy in summer 2013 at Kaiser Permanente. Resection performed in Sept. 2013 and it was more distal than suspected--technically rectal. Operation went well, believed to be Stage...
