Blood markers

After undergoing 6 weeks of chemo (3 on, 1 0ff) my best friend has been having a terrible time, pain, fatigue etc.  This past weekend she ended up in the hospital with blood clots in her stomach and lung.  A scan showed the tumor in her stomach had increased in size, yet her markers went down again.  Is this just a false reading?  I don't know what to believe anymore and neither does she.  Doctors have told her to stay away from any natural remedies, yet the chemo is not working.  Any suggestions, help?

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. What part of town do you live in? I find it very interesting that they told her to stay away from natural remedies. These doctors are so ignorant its so sad. These oncologist get paid to give out chemo they even get chemo bonuses its sickening. My fathers oncologist did nothing but push chemo on us it really made me mad. Thank the Lord we were educated and didn't let him suck us in. I'm not trying to put your friend down or anything but there is no chemo that will cure this cancer.  We are trying to fight this naturally and of course with the Lord.  The dr's say that the ca-19 is just not a really reliable test. Look if your interested in any of the stuff we are doing email me. I'll be praying for your friend.
