Hi, A recent biopsy of a neck mass shows Large B Cell Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. I was first diagnosed in April 1999 with the same, at that time on the brain. I was able to successfully get rid of the brain mass after 2 years of chemo and then Rituxin and an herbal treatment from Mexico called Hoxsey.
Was in remission till one and a half years ago. Mass in chest was diagnosed as small B Cell follicular. Radiation, and Zevalin did get rid of that.
Now with cancer moving to the other (left) side of my body, (all previos activity has been on right side) and now being Large B Cell I am being told to do a stem cell transplant.
I do not want to because of several reasons #1 being I have done so much chemo already. #2 Do not want to get that sick.
Does any one have any other experience with other therapies than chemo, radiation or surgery. I am looking for something that will boost my immune system to beat cancer out and that will not make me sick.
Thank you,
Steve
Sounds like you have been through a lot. I have heard of some who have used IV Vitamin C with success. I do not know what the treatment limitations are nor where one gets treatment in this country. All the treatment centers seem to be in Canada. Wish you well.
