I'm really worried because my doctor said I have stage 3 lung cancer, but they didn't explain if it's 3A, 3B, or 3C. I have the PET scan and biopsy reports, which mention Moderately Differentiated Adenocarcinoma. Could you help me understand what this all means?

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’s a minor outpatient procedure with quick recovery.

My dad was just diagnosed with esophageal cancer at Stage IIB and we're really confused about the best treatment options. Should we go for surgery right away or consider chemo and radiotherapy first? The reports show it's progressed a bit and we're not sure what approach would work best for his case. Could you help us understand what treatments might be most effective? We're especially worried about whether surgery alone would be enough or if combining treatments would give better results. The diagnosis has us pretty overwhelmed and we'd really appreciate some clarity on the possible next steps.

I've been trying to make sense of something after a recent CT scan. It showed a large lymph node mass that's partially encasing some major blood vessels around my kidneys and pancreas. About two years ago, my doctor said it was linked to tuberculosis, so I took medicine for over a year, but the lymph node only got a little bigger. Do you have any idea why that's happening? Also, I've gained about 10kg in just two months and I'm kind of concerned. Is treatment for this really necessary, or should I just leave it as is? Any thoughts on why the weight gain could be happening?
