Answered by Pankaj Kamble

The cost of treatment at Tata Memorial hospital depends upon the category you opt for and if the patient is an inpatient or outpatient. The inpatient is the one who lives in the hospital for treatment and the outpatient is the one who attends the hospital for treatment without staying overnight. The four basic categories for out-patients are:
General
Private
Outside Referrals (Second Opinion)
Preventive Oncology.
One must be careful while choosing their patient category for treatment. A change from one category to another (General to Private and vice versa) is permitted only once. However, you can get help from Medical Social Workers Department to choose the category.

Hi, my father was diagnosed with carcinoma right colon, features are suggestive of well-differentiated mucinous papillary adenocarcinoma of the colon with metastasis to the lymph node and treated with extended radical right hemicolectomy side to side ileocolic anastomosis done under GA one year back followed by chemotherapy. We need a second opinion as his blood report reveals a presence of 17.9 ng/mL of carcinoembryonic antigen. Can you please suggest me a good hospital in Bangalore with less cost? The previous doctor suggested a PET CT scan.

As per my understanding, your father is suffering from carcinoma of the right colon with metastasis to lymph node and treated surgically and chemotherapy. Once any cancer which has spread to the lymph nodes it means it is stage 3 where the prognosis is not so good. But still consult an oncologist. Hope our answer helps you.

Female | 18

I recommend you to go to the breast specialist urgently to get a full diagnostic examination. Mass in the breast may be a sign of breast cancer, but not all the causes are the same.

Hello sir, I was diagnosed with an eye tumour last year and operated it. After 7 months of surgery, yesterday again I was diagnosed with a tumor in my neck. I am very much worried now. Why this is happening with me. Is there any chance to be cancer now?

Male | 59

Eye tumor is a very vague term. Oncologist will have to know exact diagnosis, current disease staging should be done by a radiological imaging like CT scan or PET-CT scan. A repeat biopsy can be done to confirm the diagnosis.

I'm sorry if I bother you, if you don't mind me asking something related to lung cancer, I have a family member who is sick with lung cancer, it's in the fourth stage and he's very tired, he's lost weight and he won't eat anything, I'm from Kosovo and I went to Google to look for a specialist doctor for this disease to help me with at least a little of their experience with this disease and I'm wondering if you can help me and advise me on any herbal medicine that can help my family because even chemotherapy hasn't had any effect on them

Female | 48

Lung cancer can lead to symptoms like fatigue, weight loss, and decreased appetite. It is vital to prioritize your family member's comfort and nutrition. While some explore herbal remedies, these should complement, not replace, medical treatments. I strongly encourage you to consult a oncologist who can offer personalized advice and possibly adjust the treatment plan.

Hi I am Nehal. My brother is 48 years old and we are from Rajkot. He was not well for the last few weeks so we consulted with our family doctor. After a CT scan and a few other tests on Friday, he was diagnosed with a couple of specks on one lung. It's size is 3.9 cm and the biopsy report says it's cancerous. Please refer us to a good place to treat him. We are not so strong financially. Is there any way to save him and treat him from Rajkot only?

Please consult, so that I may be able to guide you appropriately. Lung Cancer in early stages may be cured by a surgery.
