Hello,
i have NHFL, & was in a clinical trial that made my liver enzymes go sky high so I had to stop the trial. That was last August still trying to get those numbers lower, with the help of a drug, mycopholate. This drug has gave me diarrhea. In total, I lost 25 pounds, so now I am 80 pounds. Now I need to gain some weight, but at the beginning of my diagnosis, I changed to a healthy diet. No sugar, & lots of fruits & Vegas. This makes it hard to gain weight. I am at a loss over that. However, I want to treat tha cancer as naturally as possible. I wholly believe that chemo will kill me & I refuse to do it. Besides the cancer center, I consult with naturalpathic doctor. He has prescribed lots of vitamins & minerals, & herbs, most of which target the immune system & the liver. Anyhow, that is what is going on with me. Mary

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

Hello,
How are you today?
So that we can discuss the various treatments for cancer!
As you know, treatment for cancer is very broad and depends on the type of cancer, ranging from surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, stem cell transplant, to many more! Some people with cancer may only need one type of treatment, while others may need to undergo a combination of a few.
What has your cancer treatment been like? Have you had surgery? Chemotherapy? Something else? What were the results and side effects? How are you doing today?
