speech pathology treatment

there are no data showing that this is an appropriate method of treatment for cancer. Any form of treatment should be approved by your treating Physician as he knows all the particulars of your case.

You can still request that your slides be read by another Pathology Lab. If you aren't seeing a Breast Specialist I suggest that you do so and this might help clear things up for you. I'm sure you are more than aggravated at how things have gone in the past. I'm not sure why the ADH wouldn't show up on Excisional Biopsy unless the area was so small that it was removed by the previous needle procedure/ OR/ the Excisional Biopsy did not include the area of ADH.

In White matter disease, pathology involves the brain white matter, either exclusively or in combination with grey matter changes. These include metabolism errors, exogenous toxins released by virus, autoimmune disease, leukodystrophy, demyelination, and radiation effects. Spasticity, muscle weakness, paralysis, hyper-reflexia and movement disorder may be the clinical features associated with white matter disease that need to be evaluated thoroughly.

s thyroiditis have tongue issues that has/had an impact on your speech? I have the scalloped appearance to my tongue, a swollen feeling near the back and underneath the tongue which affects my speech. Did the thyroid meds fix the problem and if so, how long did it take?

The doctors do not like her CA125 level and will meet with us to discuss alternate and additional chemo treatment. Can you give some sense of what other chemo treatment might be?

Hi, my sister had a Mastectomy on 15th of April, and got her final pathology report. Doctor told her that she doesn’t need any further treatment and also medication after seeing her final pathology report. But I did not see her GENE test result in her report. Please explain me her condition and will it be OK, if she doesn’t take any treatments and medications. What are the chances of re occurrence? I read couple of postings for false negative.

I received my pathology report and it states Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (90%) and Intraductal Carcinoma (10%) and the size was 2.7 CM (by reconstruction)/Nottingham Grade 2 Total Score = 6: Tubule Formation 3, Nuclear Pleomorphism 2 and Mitoses 1. Necrosis/Absent Calcification/Present. Definite Angiolymphatic Invasion not identified. Pathological Staging: T2 N0(I-) Mx It was now sent out for Oncotest. Can anyone explain what all this means?

My husband had a complete thyroidectomy and his pathology results are being sent for a diagnostic consultation. The report stated : right lobe : preliminary diagnosis- Oncocytic adenoma 3mm left lobe : preliminary diagnosis-Oncocytic neoplasm 3cm What does this mean ? Why did they need a second opinion ?

It is very slow growing. I, however, would take a good long look at the FNA biopsy pathology report and perhaps get a second opinion. I pushed for surgery when mine came back inconclusive and am now having regrets about having had the surgery. Mine turned out to be benign in the end and I've had a lot of symptoms since I had the surgery. Make sure you have the slides read by a different pathologist at a different institution so that there is no bias.

I was also treated for thyroid cancer which was suspected beforehand but actually confirmed during my thyroid surgery. I also had lymph node involvment. The RAI treatment was successful and 'they' say if your're going to get cancer this is the one to get as it has a very successful outcome with RAI treatment. Stay positive and be proactive in managing your situation.

This means that hormone therapy (the exact drug depends on the individual situation) will likely be recommended as part of the treatment plan. A Her-2 rating of 2+ suggests that the testing for this protein was done with a method called immunohistochemistry. In this method, a 0 or 1+ is considered negative and 3+ is considered positive. A 2+ score is usually considered equivocal and testing by another method may be recommended.

We are think about waiting until december to do the radioactive iodine treatment. Is that ok? From what we are told waiting as long as she is on the hormone pills will be ok.

omenectomy, and intraperitoneal port placement for enlarged bilateral ovaries with multiple hemorrhagic complex cysts. Pathology confirmed papillary serous borderline tumors (low malignant potential) - stage 2c (I think) for non-invasive implants in pelvis plus positive abdominal and pelvic washings. Has anyone had intraperitoneal administration of P32 (chromic phosphate) who can share experience?

Dear Doctor, I just recently (july 8th) had thyrodectemy and will soon go through radioactive iodine treatment. The whole body scan shows no cancer. I do have other issues I'm dealing with like hepatitis C and ulcerative colitis. I'm wondering given my clear scan, do I really need the radioactive treatment? I'm worried about long term side effects of this treatment especially given my liver and colon problems. Is the treatment really worth it?

Thanks for you comments - I feel certain the 1st oncologist did not want to provide the treatment due to the costs of Herceptin.... I just hope with it being 13 months out - that the treatment is not too late to have an affect. Do you know of any studies on Chemo and Herceptin over a year post surgery?

So, around this time last year I experienced tingling in my left hand that lasted for a few days, coupled with extreme fatigue. Days later, I developed nystagmus only upon waking that lasted for about 10 minutes or so. That eventually went away after about a month. About six months later I had a severe headache that migrated to my right eye and lasted for over a week. Went to an optometrist, no optic neuritis.

Would the Oncologist review the pathology, and verify the grade himself, or would I have to request another pathology report be completed? Another question (sorry): How long can a "frozen section" be kept for a pathological review? (ie: when is it too late?) We have been to a Gyn/Oncologist, and he said in older patients, he would recomend chemo treatment right away (3 rounds of BEP)....

The Oncologist is the ONLY Physician who should be making a recommendation as to your treatment after surgery. He/She will take into considertaion all of your reports (pre and post-op) and formulate the treatment that best fits your particular case. chemo would more than likely depend on the pathology of the lymph node/nodes that were tested. If I were you I would keep an open mind until you see the Onc. and discuss with him/her your feelings regarding the recommended treatment. Regards ....

Hi all, I am 34, and deveoped a 22cm cyst in my right ovary, which was removed, along with the ovary. The initital pathology found an intact serous capsule within the cyst, but a 2nd pathology found it was Grade 3 clear cell. I am seeing a second oncologist and am having yet another pathology done, along with a thorax-pelvic CT scan, but the initial advice is for a hysterectomy with chemo.

t seen that as a test for dysphagia in any MS forum. It seems more relevant to get a barium swallow or speech pathology assessment. I've had so many tests lately, and spent so much time at the clinic, that I'd like to avoid this if it's not necessary. Any thoughts?

Tamoxifen is always recommended following radiation after lumpectomy when the tumor is ER/PR+. The usual course of treatment is for 5 years. This is the standard medical treatment in cases as noted above ... I can't imagine it NOT being recommended by any publication; unless of course the tumor was found to be ER/PR neg. Then it would be of no value. Regards ....
