Any Supplement Suggestion, Comments? Posted: 12-19-04 11:09am
It seems that after I was diagnosed with
stage 4 colon cancer I have been
scrambling for any kind of "extra" little
edge I can get. My cancer was 90%
blocking the colon itself and had spread a
few seed cells to the stomach lining and
my surgeon removed 50 lymph nodes of which
3 showed up positive. S o I am now
waiting to heal enough to start my chemo (
8 treatments-avastin,oxiplatin leucovorin
and flu-5) my surgery was nearly3 months
ago and I just had my temporary ileostomy
removed last week, so I am supposed to
start chemo in 2-3 weeks now. I had done
alot of research online to see if I could
find a little help while i'm waiting for
chemo I ran across a ingredient called
graviola which seems to be toxic to colon
cancer cell it is in a supplement callled
"tumeral" it also contains ellagic acid
,coral calcium,cats claw,grape seed
extract as well as green tea extract. Ii
don't know if it is helping for sure as I
have not been tested again but at least I
feel like I am doing something while I am
sitting here healing up. What is
everybody else taking? Any opinions would
be appreciated.
