Re: South Korean Cure for Colorectal Cancer in news - who has details?

I have read about this. I believe they use AI as a tool. Interesting work. The lead professor in the study you provided gives his name and institute. Maybe call him up or get his email from the institute. If you investigate more, please update us. I also read a paper about peptides and replacing/add...

Re: Lonsurf Experiences

Hi Crikklekay, don't give up hope! Maybe someone will respond soon here. You can also go to cancer survivors network site and read and maybe DM a guy that goes by NewHere. He has been battling CRC for 11 years or so. He was also on Lonsurf and from what I remember reading in his posts he was or is s...

Vein integrity

Question: How do I retain vein integrity? I have been stuck 2-3 per week with bloodwork and IVC for 5 1/2 years now. I am forming scar tissue and losing good veins. I need to keep up protocol for 1-2 more years but can see I need help in this area to be successful for another year or so. I was think...

Re: Tiredness

I didn't have fatigue when mets were brewing. Constant runny nose is the only symptom I had, which is also something to pay attention to with lung mets. How's your appetite? Good or losing weight? Do you live in a climate that isn't getting alot of sunlight this time of year? If so, it could be you ...

Re: Colectomy recovery expectations

From your signature it looks like chemo is doing you good. Great!
I don't have any advice for expectations you are asking about but bet someone will come along.
Good luck with surgery. Let us know how it went and how you are doing.

Re: Plant based bioactives as anti cancer agents

I take it 5 days on, 2 days off and has been safe. Mine comes from Metagenics. I bet they have an email or # to call to ask questions/get more info. I originally began taking it with the Metagenics supplement package for cv19 immunity protocol back in 2020-about spring of 2024. Now back on it 5 days...

Re: Plant based bioactives as anti cancer agents

Indepth paper. Thanks for posting. Not often do I see andrographis listed for cancer like in the paper you shared but it is a vey potent cancer killer in CRC. I had been taking it since early 2020 (not as part of cancer protocol) then found it synergizes with xeloda and 5FU to go to work on differen...

5 yrs since primary surgery

It's been a long ride so far. I remember thinking every thought that could possibly run thru ones head as I was getting ready to go to the hospital for a 10-12 1/2 hr surgery. I had to be there at 4 am. What a rough and emotional day. I watched SAGE video of similar surgery beforehand as I am not on...

Re: Chemotherapy side effects

FOLFOX is combo od 5FU and oxaliplatin Not sure about FOLFIRI. Someone will come along on an answer on it. So, are you carrying a bulb or bag on your shoulder/hip receiving the chemo or is it done at your clinic daily? Just trying to understand that part. What does your bloodwork look like? Normal, ...

Re: Ileostomy reversal. How long to recover.

Don't let dehydration sneak up on you. Drink hydration fluids with the right balance of electrolytes. Gatorade is koolaide in my opinion. IV in the bottle, Biolyte, Dr. Bergs electrolyte powder, ect are good. Also, you could put a lil pinch of salt under your tongue every 3-4hrs to keep electrolyte ...

Re: Did anyone notice this?

Didn't notice til you pointed it out. It is a good thing people have found the forum and hopefully collecting info to be better prepared if they have CRC.
