thanks Tina,
but i ve always heard since she has gotten this disease that brain cancer is still curable but metastatic brain cancer has no chance and the mean survival is 6 months, Also people say that Mabthera is a very painful medicine and we are torturing her by giving this treatment as it will anyways not save her, it very demotivating to hear such things but want to get an honest opinion if its curable...
As someone who lost someone to cancer (not thyroid) I would be terribly sad if someone I loved had a very curable cancer and wasn't taking every opportunity to get rid of the cancer. Everything I have read says that this is a very curable cancer. I am currently waiting to have mine FNA and I feel great comfort knowing that if anything is wrong that I have a wonderful chance of dieing from something else, as my DR said than from thyroid cancer.
I had surgery in 2005 for rectal cancer and have a colostmy bag. Now 3 years later everything had been clear but last week Dr. said disease had come back and probably had 2 years (outside) to live. How can it go from disease free to terminal in just a couple of months??

Yes, but his best chances by far for for recovery are if it's caught early.
Hi. My mom was recently diagnosed stage 1a clear cell ovarian cancer.She is going to have a port put in and will start 6 rounds of chemo (carbo/taxol) after that. From my understanding, that seems to be the typical treatment. I'm confused because I've been reading that clear cell is so much more aggressive. But, I thought stage 1a meant it hadn't spread anywhere....so why is there a high chance of reoccurance?
Either way, your doctor is signaling that the problem appears self-contained. If benign, curable because the cysts/tumors will have been removed. If cancerous, curable because it's self contained and therefore early stage.
Since you're using a gyn/oncologist, you should be in good hands. They are specially trained to deal with these surgeries and that's a plus, even if you get a benign report.
Good luck and try not to worry while you're waiting.
A year back my mother had cervical cancer stage 1B but she had a radical hysterometry and now exactly after 1 year she has bleeding from her anus(fresh red blood) and she had a Ureteral reimplantation few months back after her 1 kidney was blocked due to the cervical operationc. Its been about 2 weeks now its not in great quantity just a little bit. Could this be related to her cervical cancer or the reimplantation? Is this serious? God forbid if it is related to her cervical is it curable ?!
It means someone has cancer but since this is a broad term it doesn't say what stage the cancer is. It may be curable depending on how bad it is.
Prostate cancer is one of the most curable cancers in men if found early. Your father's cancer seems to have been found early with a low PSA (4.8) and only one of twelve biopsies positive. The Gleason score given in a biopsy report is a factor that determine the aggressiveness of the cancer. Six is the least aggressive cancer, seven is intermediate usually, and 8 to 10 are the more aggressive types. All can be cured if found early.
I have pretty bad health anxiety and over the last month I have had all kinds of symptoms. But then I saw something on tv about a teenager dying from testicular cancer. I am 15 by the way. I stupidly went online and researched the symptoms of this cancer and I have since started to feel some pain in my testicles. I also have been checking my balls for any lumps and I think I found something on the bottom of both testicles but I'm not sure what it is since it might be part of the testicle.
What may be the basic reason behind it. Is it symptom of Cancer or It may be due to harmonal chnage. I would also like to Know that is breast cancer cureable.
Please reply Urgently.
No. 90% is benign. Even the malignant ones are highly curable. Don't think too much. Wait for path report with some patience.
I had a mammogram in January 2008 and had another one done by mistake in Oct 2008, I was called back for additional views and a sonogram. The results showed pleomorphic clustered calcification in my right breast no palpable mass and code 4A, suspicious for malignancy. Breast biopsy recommended and will be performed on January 13, 2009. I am very scared because my sister died 4 months ago at 47yrs to breast cancer. Is the word "pleomorphic" associated with cancer?
I have no history of colon cancer in my family, though I had a benign polyp removed about 4 yrs ago. I am diagnosed with IBS. I have no weight loss (other way around) but have been very stressed past couple of years. My toilet habits have not changed, I have had no fever. My stool looks normal shape and color (other than mucus and blood). I ma due for an endoscopy and colonscopy soon. But I want to know; is this most likely cancer?
She was treated for breast cancer in 2001 with no lymph node involvement. She recently was experience stomach pain and went for a sonogram, (seeming unrelated transient intenstinal inflammation that went away). During this time they discovered "small spots on her liver" subsequent tests within the last few months have revealed the information below.
