Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
During recovery from breast cancer surgery and chemotherapy, incorporating nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables is crucial for healing and boosting the immune system. Focus on colorful produce, including dark leafy greens, deep yellow and orange vegetables, and citrus fruits, which are packed with vitamins and minerals. These foods can also help manage some of the side effects of cancer treatment

My mom has stage 4 cholangiocarcinoma and just finished her third cycle of GemCis chemo. The doctors say surgery isn't an option and are only recommending palliative care. The tumor hasn't shrunk much, but she did respond somewhat to the first three cycles. She's lost a lot of weight, has no appetite, and feels really weak. Her oncologist is against homeopathy, but I'm wondering if adding it now could help shrink the tumor or at least support her during chemo. Is it safe to combine homeopathy with chemo, or should we wait until after treatment?
consult oncosx for that.

I'm really worried because I've got this lump in my left armpit, and it's almost as big as half a table tennis ball. It's really painful, with sharp stabbing sensations. Plus, my left breast hurts a lot too, from the nipple to somewhere inside, with sharp electrical pains and then other times, it's a continuous dull ache that sticks around for hours. Which type of doctor should I see for this? And do you have any idea what kind of tests I might need?
it might be an abscess, consult a surgeon
