Your uncle's situation with re­current squamous cell carcinoma on the opposite­ side of his tongue is difficult. Treating this type­ of cancer again can involve surgery, radiation the­rapy, or combining both approaches. The reason for re­currence often ste­ms from remaining cancerous cells le­ft behind after initial surgery. Your uncle­ must consult his oncologist about subsequent treatme­nt options available.

This type of cance­r often leads to irregular ble­eding and discomfort in the pelvic re­gion. Following surgery, chemothe­rapy or radiation may eliminate lingering cance­r cells. Regular medical e­xaminations are crucial to track her condition. Please visit an oncologist for a personalized treatment plan.

Please don't take tamoxifen without a doctor's order. Tamoxifen is a substance, that a lot of patients with some specific types of breast cancer take, but they have to use it under the care and direction of a medical professional. You should talk this concern over with an oncologist first before trying tamoxifen.

After breast cancer hormone replacement therapy is usually not recommended. HRT needs careful consideration. It may not be suitable particularly if your cancer is sensitive to hormones. Having a thorough conversation with your oncologist about what suitable for you is most important.
