Re: BR€AST CANCER Amongst Nigerian Women by Osyxcel(m): 1:37pm On Oct 18, 2014 |
candygosh: Hmmm, Very well said. Can reconstruction really cause that to happen or is it just a phobia? So Chemo will take care of the recurrence right? |

Givemejoy:keep praying for her, I still believe in the power of prayers. She should be given chemotherapy before surgery, that will destroy some of the cancer cells and kind of shrink it to an operable size. I knw she has probably given up on living that's why she is rejecting treatment, its must be very difficult for her so try to encourage her, be thr for her and most importantly donot force her to do what she doesn't want to do. Again do not stop praying for her. It is well with you |

I would also love to say a diet very rich in fresh fruits and vegetables is very helpful. Also avoiding sugary stuff(by sugary I mean refined white sugar), canned foods and generally processed and preserved foods. Drink lots of water too and excercise frequently to sweat off toxic substances from ur body. |

xcelsia:thanks dearie, much love to u too.I am feeling very much better now. Candy is planning to establish a kind of cancer foundation. She has a righteous indignation for those celebrity cancer march, lol. |
Re: BR€AST CANCER Amongst Nigerian Women by hephzi1991: 4:05pm On Oct 18, 2014 |
Osyxcel:no, reconstruction doesn't cause recurrence. No doctor will ever give you the assurance that chemo will take care of recurrence. I have asked these question several times from different doctors and I always get the same answer, UNCERTAINTY. Its always a 50:50 chance that it will reoccur or it won't depending on the stage tho. |
