My wife has a single breast fibroadenoma and has tried homeopathic treatment, but it hasn't gone away. I'm really worried are there any non-surgical treatment options that could help?

If homeopathy failed to shrink fibroadenoma, surgical excision may be considered. It‚Äôs a minor outpatient procedure with quick recovery.

What foods should I eat to help strengthen my immune system after ASPS sarcoma surgery I'm worried about recovery and want to make sure I'm doing everything right to stay healthy

Fats (nuts, oils, fish) Especially following surgery, healthy fat helps your body absorb all those yummy vitamins you are getting from your fruits and veggies. Fat is essential for strengthening your immune system and decreasing your chance of infection.
