I was lucky enough to embark on a clinical trial with Roache at the Austin Hospital...Although I was already at stage four, I believe it was a Godsend. After dropping twenty kilos in less than six months, I've managed to get back up there. Stupid Doc I went to last October said I had 'WIND' and prescribed Nexium. All I felt was heartburn and couldn't eat much. Tried another Doc...he was an Iranian Genius, love him, best Doc I ever saw. Sent me off to the endoscopy clinic immediately...then the bad news came not long after Christmas 2012.
After looking inside with multiple cameras, Surgeon found it had broken out into the chest cavity so any thought of operation was pointless. I'm kinda glad in a way that I still have a stomach, as it can now hold a ton of food (burgers/beer/full evening meals and full English Breakfasts..LOL)
Now I'm on the trial drug only 'Onartuzumab'...it has been previously tested only on rats, so I should do just fine.
Guys, keep yer chin up and retain a positive attitude, no matter what. Drink 'Alkalise' water and down plenty of liquid Chlorophyll. At present, apart from numbness in my fingers and toes, I never felt better in my life...and I'm pushing sixty five. I'll post more on the effects of Chemo shortly.
Cheers, Dean.
