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 33-year-old wife was diagnosed with malignant melanoma on her left knee back in 2013 and had surgery then in 2015 it spread to her right thigh she's been on several chemo drugs like dacarbazine paclitaxel and celecoxib plus metronomic chemo since 2016 an MRI in august 2016 showed multiple brain metastases with swelling and mass effect she got palliative whole brain radiotherapy 30Gy over 2 weeks would immunotherapy be an option for her now

Sure. But majority are still investigational still. Newer drugs are also available. The cost is prohibitively very high. You must see a medical oncologist and discuss the options and costs.

My wifes been having this pain in her left breast, and were both getting a bit worried since it hasnt gone away. We saw a doctor, did some tests, and they said everything seemed fine, but the pains still there. Could someone help me understand what might be going on or what steps we should take next?

Although the doctor's tests didn't indicate any issues, it's essential to monitor your wife's breast pain and watch for any changes or additional symptoms, such as lumpiness, nipple discharge, or skin changes, and consider a follow-up appointment in a few weeks to reassess the situation, meanwhile, encourage your wife to perform regular breast self-exams and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
