Hi all

My mom was dx in January, stage 2, standard protoocall radiation and mytomici. She finished in March and has been feeling pretty good, and was cleared by colorectal surgeon today she called me concerned she has a little bump inside her nose and it has been dropping clear fluid. She said shea had it about a month and at first just thought it was probably a pimple but is now pretty concerned? Anyone with any input would be great, she is calling her oncologist tomorrow to make an appointment

    Hi,

    I am sorry that you and your Mum have concerns. I am not sure what it could be, but speaking to the oncologist or even GP is the way to go. Hopefully it's a something and nothing. It's just that when you've had a diagnosis of cancer, you're on alert, thinking anything and everything could be cancer. 

    Will be thinking of you and your Mum

    Cancer Treatment in Turkey

    It is sad I guess you must stay positive despite all these things, May be you weigh other options? I got a treatment in the top cancer treatment centers in Turkey, with the help of Placidway, a medical tourism company. I was referred by this company to Kent Hospital in Izmir, Turkey which is a modern and highly specialized medical center. I did not have so much difficulties in undergoing the treatment since the staff were so kind and made me comfortable.
