Effort to Make App. With Naturopathic Clinic

I am a 3 time survivor of cancer, I am 88, I now am diagnosed with endometrial cancer, and I know there is no known cure. The oncologist has suggested a research experimental drug lapatinib. I and my family are very uncomfortable with this, and I need affirmation that it would be wise to refuse this treatment. I don't want to be sick or die prematurely, I hope to have more than a year and move closer to my daughter and this is what my husband wants too. I am desperately searching a nutritional doctor that can guide us, and help me have a quality of life. At the time I am feeling fine. Thank you, the painter

Endometrial Cancer

Hi, I am 53 years old and have recurrent Endometrial Clear Cell Carcinoma (very uncommon and no known cure). I'm going to copy here info from the web on a drug (pill prescription) call Tarceva. I will start this drug tomorrow. Doctor says the most common side effect is a rash. Also more recent info from the web says that adding Avastin with Tarceva gives you a one two punch and is more effective together. Ask your Doctor about Tarceva and Avastin. Hope this helps. Best of Luck. Nancy
