I talked to my doctor and she said the pet scan can pick up a tumor when it is just 3 or 4 millimeters in size. Also that is why you have cancer markers and blood tests done so that all the test combined will pick up any changes so that further test can be done.
I found an article about a study done at Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center that shows Curcumin halts the spread of breast cancer in mice. It also reversed the effects of pacilitaxel (TaxolTM), a commonly prescribed chemotherapy for breast cancer that may trigger spread of the disease with use over a long period of time.
Curcumin is the main ingredient of tumeric, the same household spice we use all the time.
I am taking it now along with my other supplements.
