Hi, I want to know about Palliative Chemotherapy. Recently, my aunt was suggested this treatment by her Oncologist when she was diagnosed with 3rd stage Pancreatic Cancer. I wanted to know if this is a specific stage-based treatment or is it given for all kinds of cancer?
Palliative chemotherapy is a treatment that is designed for terminal cancer patients to prolong their survival and ease symptoms of cancer, but does not cure disease. It can be administered in a variety of ways with the most common being:
- Orally: Pills taken by mouth.
- Intravenously (IV): Infused through a vein.
- Topically: Applied to the skin.
Consult Cancer Treatment doctors in Mumbai, or any city nearer to you. Hope our answer helps you.

I have been chemotherapy in my body for a year. And I have a loss of appetite, so how can I get rid of chemotherapy in my body?
Male | 20
It is important to state that chemotherapy remains in the body for some time after therapy. Appetite loss is a widely observed side effect; it is particularly important to ensure proper nutrition. Consulting with an oncologist or a registered dietitian is suggested in order to create personalized diet plan which should help improve appetite and control signs.

Can we give blood after 1 week of gfc treatment
Male | 21
You need to wait before giving blood after GFC treatment. Your body requires time to recover; it lost cells during the procedure. Don't give blood too soon - at least one week is best. That lets your body rebuild the blood cells affected by treatment. Donating blood earlier could make you tired or dizzy. Wait a week to be safe after GFC.

My masi had whipple surgery in Feb 2021. Since November she has been feeling pain, bloating stomach and cramps but initially she ignored it as it is very common in people. But recently it became severe and so I consulted our doctor. Few reports are yet to come but doctor is thinking there might be peritoneal carcinomas to her stomach lining. That can lead to the early stage of Peritoneal cancer. Can you please show some light on this? We are extremely confused
Yes post Whipple surgery pain and discomfort for limited time period is a common complain. A thorough examination and investigations are mandatory if we are suspecting any progression of disease. There are specific Cancer markers which can help us diagnose the condition. Peritoneal Carcinoma has to be ruled out as soon as possible. Exact comment on treatment planning can only be done once all the investigations are done. So be in touch with your surgical oncologist and for any help.

How can one know she has breast cancer
Female | 20
It is possible to diagnose breast cancer by self-examination in that you have a look and feel for any lumps or other abnormal changes in the tissue. However, please note that breast cancer can also be symptomless, so a person needs to have examinations by an endocrinologist or gynecologist once in a while.

My sister had breast cancer 3 years ago and now she’s having pain in her operated breast again. There’s no visible lump but she says it feels different. Should we be worried about recurrence?
Female | 45
Post-surgery pain can happen due to scar tissue or nerve changes, but since she has a cancer history, it’s best not to ignore it. Get a clinical exam from her oncologist and a mammogram or ultrasound done to rule out recurrence or any new lesion. Early review helps avoid unnecessary anxiety.

There is no guaranteed cure for chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Long term outlook may vary with individual specific cases. Chemotherapy may help to manage the disease, but the goal is usually to help manage symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease.

My aunt has heart cancer and she’s on the last stage. The doctor said that there’s no treatment but I’m hoping for a cure? Is there any possibilities?
Female | 49
Heart cancer is a very vague term. Usually atrial myxoma is the most common tumour in the heart. And the only best option of treatment of atrial myxomas is surgical removal. Whether the case is operable or inoperable will decide the prognosis.

Hello, I want to know about Proton therapy. Is it better and safer than other types of radiotherapy? Are there any side-effects of this therapy?
Proton therapy is more or less similar to radiation therapy, but its approach is more targeted. It delivers proton beams at cancer cells with better precision. Therefore the risk of damaging tissues around the tumor is lower than with standard radiation.
The treatment is suitable for cancers that involve tumors near sensitive parts of the body. But still consult Cancer Treatment doctors in Mumbai, or any other city, as it is finally treating clinician's decision to decide the best treatment for patient. Hope our answer helps you.
