Hyperthermia in Germany - Request experiences & Clinic info.
Although I was diagnosed as having Stage IV adenocarcinoma of the colon with mets to the peritoneum, my CA19-9 marker is above 40,000 (as of 4/28/2014) which is more typical of other cancers, possibly including cancer of the peritoneum. I have no elevation of the CEA marker. I have only months to live as my cancer has spread throughout my PERITONEUM. The affected organs witihin the peritoneum are the OUTSIDE MEMBRANES of my liver, the portal vein to my liver, my spleen and gall bladder (my bile ducts, specifically). I also have at least one large tumor in my internal cavity at the site of the scar left from the surgey during which my colon was removed. I am interested in going to a German Clinic for their Hyperthermia treatment, among others, as my last ditch effort to survive my cancer, at least for awhile longer. I understand that there are only 6 clinics in Germany that would be viable ones. I am waiting now for a book that tells of these 6 German clincis. Does anyone have any experiences with Hyperthermia (and/or related therapies) at any of these good Gernan clinics? If so, please share with me and others any success(es) you may have received from the treatment(s) received and from which clinic the Hyperthermia treatment was received, etc. Thank you. Nancy

Hi Nancy
I do know someone who has just been to Germany for this treatment, she is really a friend of a friend so I dont have contact with her but I get updates, I am afraid I dont know which clinic she went to but she is doing really well, they treat you in a very holistic way, she is back home in England now but is going back for more treatment soon. I hope you can get some more info and I wish you well
