Interesting thank you for sharing. Why each of us has cancer, have how each of us are affected by our cancer and how we respond to treatment (whether FDA approved or not) is fascinating.
Personally I was diagnosed stage 4 appendix cancer in 2021, had a radical hysterectomy and debulking surgery, 6 months of Folfiri and Avastin then in mid 2022 HIPEC with cytoreductive surgery and a peritonectomy. I’ve been NED since then (surveillance scans and blood tests now 4 monthly) with almost no side effects from treatments (just need to watch my hydration and fibre intake due to a colon resection).
No way am I suing my doctor!! He’s been fabulous. He’s encouraged me to live holistically through, and then post, treatment as adjuvant therapies. Referred me to various holistic experts. I eat a Mediterranean diet, exercise well, sleep well, practice mindfulness, minimise stress, enjoy Pilates, yoga and aromatherapy etc etc.
I don’t do Botox and try to live clean. However, I drink minimal red wine as per the Mediterranean diet and I do worry that I should drink none at all as I did through treatment. Alcohol does have a level of toxicity.
Hopefully that lifestyle will help prolong my life before recurrence. My cancer is rare, cause unknown and cannot be cured.
Who knows what I will do when my cancer returns. It will depend on the research and possibly my level of desperation
