NHL - b cell - Mexico?

forever12341

My brother has just finished his 8th chemotherapy treatment. Earlier tests provided optimism and showed that the tumor in his stomach had shrank by 60%. Now, all of a sudden, tests show that the cancer has progressed. He's now graduated to stage 4.

His doctor now wants to do a more aggressive form of chemotherapy. (I don't know what the drug is called)

I really would like to hear from someone who has had a similar experience.

Also, I've been checking out a few clinics in Tijuanna, Mexico. I personally know someone that has has breast cancer beaten with the help of Dr. Bautista at the Immunity Health Center. However, I'm not able to find any information on anyone who has been successfully treated with alternate treatments for NHL. Do you know of anyone who has a story to share?

What to do? More chemotherapy, or try alternate treatments? Time is ticking and it can't be wasted!

Hello forever,

I'm sorry about your brother and you have to be here at this site.
But welcome! You'll find many wonderful and supportive folks here.

I just finished chemo for Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma and the chemo
regimen used was R-EPOCH. RCHOP is another regimen commonly used I believe.

I'm doing well so far so there is hope! It would help us greatly if you
could provide more details in the "about me" section" so others who have
similar experiences can easily find this from your posts and respond.

I took a look at the Immunity Center in Tiajuana. Looks like they do
alternative therapies combined with traditional. Link below:

I know this is a scary time for you and your brother and we'll be here for you.

Hugs and positive thoughts,

Jim

Thanks!
Thanks so much for taking the time to provide me with your story and that link. That is the exact clinic I am checking out.

I will let you know what he does decide and keep in touch re: progress.

I did talk to a gentlemen who attended there this summer for treatments. He has NHL, but not b-cell. Do date, he is doing great. He's had some testing in the US and everything is looking great. He's back to work and enjoying life.

I wish you all the best,

Lynn
