Hello
My father was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. adrenal mets He has had 10 rounds of chemo with carboplatin/taxol. We are waiting to have his scan to see what progress has been made (giving me extreme anxiety!!!) I have him taking several supplements to offset side effects and directly attack the cancer. He has gained almost 15 lbs since he started his chemotherapy I take that as a very good sign that the cancer is regressing. I am thinking about changing up his regimen a bit and I wanted to know if anyone was using any of these supplements with success: I have done a lot of research and they seem very promising.
Oleander extract
Inositol/IP-6
Transfer Factor Plus
My sister was treated with the same chemo drugs as your father, the mass in her lungs decreased by 2/3's and the spot on her adrenal gland all but disapppeared. She is doing wonderful, she has gained weight and looks l the picture of health.
She has been off the chemo since after Christmas and taking avastin only but it is making her blood pressure go up and we don't know how long she may be able to take it.
We will try the supplements that you mention, hopefully they can only help her improve .
Thanks for the info.
