any success with LDN?

My brother will have to have a urostomy, because the 2 rounds of the GBC or BGC didn't work. His tumor grew even larger than originally. I hear htat LDN works for BC and wondered if any one has experience with it.

This is a very aggressive form, words from the doctor, so why does he have to wait over 3 months with no therapy until his surgery?

I take this for my MS and swear by it, but of course his doctor won't even try it for him. So he has no therapy until his surgery in over 3 months. He is drinking like a fish, until he stumbles. He is still smoking over a pack a day but the doctor won't even try it.

I hate to say this, it hurts soo much watching this, but I suspect this will be my last Christmas with my brother.

Any respnses will be greatly appreciated, and I see I have to be patient here as this doesn't seem to be a very active forum. Thanks in advanve.

" My sister and I noticed the same thing about the lack of activity on this site.She is 11 days post op with a Urostomy bag.She was Diagnoses and had the surgery a month later.Originally stage two with chemotherapy prior to surgery.They decided to have it sooner and she will have chemotherapy later.
I would encourage you to call and talk to the doctor for answers and even a support group for you .From your post ,I am more concerned about you ...the one who feels powerless due to your brothers actions. "

" Hi melaniemic,
I am so sorry about your brother! And I agree, that you should definitely consult your brother`s doctor in order to get appropriate response regarding this long period of waiting. There must be a good explanation.
Take care! "
