My brother went to an immunologist today to consult about alternative treatments provided by that institute. He has battling colon cancer for almost 4 years and yet has the cancer in his abdomen, liver, lymph nodes, and rectum. After all the surgeries, chemos, and a most recent trial study at USC Norris that nealy killed him, he talked with his regular oncologist and determined that it was time to step back from chemo, tests, etc. and let his body rest. She told him that it was time to be selfish, enjoy life, and only do what he wanted to do. He also took disability from work. So he had that appointment today and learned about the program of detoxification and building the immune system through daily massage, infra red lighting (I think it was called), Vitamin C IV, nutrition, and supplements. It sounded good, all but the $5,900 for 4 weeks regime totalling nearly $24,000. We believe the approach would be helpful, but there can be no promises made about how or if it could extend or improve the quality of his life, no one knows. I'm wondering if there is a less costly approach???? What might be the best type of place to go to to get guidance/support with nutrition? Are there places he could go to get something like the Vitamin C IV which sounds so hopeful for his body to get stronger and begin fighting the cancer itself? How does he go about finding a qualified Naturopath or someone trained in the treatment of cancer patients? Advice would be appreciated.
