Is it possible for 15 year old boy to have colorectal cancer knowing that he has no family history of colorectal cancer but used to eat plenty of junk foods? Thanks

My dad had colon cancer & his job let him go. They said he failed to turn in an paper for his leave. We know it’s bogus. But he still needs to get chemo.

my dad was diagnosed with colon cancer around 9/2009 and was told to go on leave ASAP for treatments such as IV chemo and radiation. After the treatments he had an operation to remove the cancer around 02/2010 and the surgeon had attached a temporary colostomy. A few weeks after he was back to chemo pills for weeks. he has been very weak throughout his treatments and can barely walk. Around 09/2010, he had his 2nd operation to remove the colostomy. He had an open wound. I change his dressing twice a day. I’m still changing his dressing til now. He has been updating work with everything paperworks he comes up with from his surgeon or when HR needed information. Last week, he receives a letter from work stating that he had already exhausted all of his options and that they can no longer accomodate him. My dad had told me that from what the letter says, they want him back to work in 2weeks or they’re going to have to terminate him at the date of the letter. He had called HR, he was told that someone from HR will give him a call today but never did. Is that possible? Is that fair?
He’s on disability at this time and was asked to recertify so it’s pending. He’s also in process of apply for LTD as well as Social Security. Everything is pending at this time. I’m not quite sure yet if my dad still has PTO with the company, would it matter?

Are these genes inherited as x-linked recessive diseases?

Experimental Cancer Treatment?

I’m 22 years old, to some this may seem dumb, but I need to try everything. But you never know if someone out there knows of a good experimental treatment that has high counts of success.

My mom has been battling cancer off and on. It started in my freshmen year with stage 4-colon cancer. 7 years later it has spread into different organs but she has been able to concur the problem at times, and even went into remission. She has been in remission for almost a year, and about three months ago she found out the cancer had spread to her liver. After of having been on several different forms of chemotherapy, including being on the pump, the doctors had her try the one last form of chemo they could think of to battle the cancer. After 2 months the doctors said the treatment hadn’t helped her at all.

After consulting with several doctors they seem to feel that they have no treatments left to try on my mom to fight off the cancer and the only option was experimental drugs.

Has anyone heard of any experimental drugs having high success? If she doesn’t find one that does they’re not sure how much longer she could fight off the cancer.

Thank You

I have a nice guy in my life that found out he had a bad case of colon cancer at the young age of 37. He went in for surgery right after chirstmas and start chemo treatments. He had 6 weeks of chemo a 2nd surgery and 6 to 12 weeks of more chemo. We were planning a longterm relationship but I had not the heart to ask him if all the chemo would cause problems with making babies later on. Something we had talked about having more kids earilier before all this happened but then this seemed to happened so fast… I did not think to ask him questions like that. Is our own kids too much to hopeful?
Thanks for the replies…

My uncle was recently diagnosed with colon cancer stage four, liver cancer, pancreas cancer and brain cancer. He also has diabetes. Doctors say he has probably had this for about eight years, but was never diagnosed. He is given only two months to live. Anyone know of any centers, treatments or survival stories that apply?
thanks.

in colorectal cancer, several genes must be mutated in order to make a cell a cancer cell, supporting Knudsen’s hypothesis. which of the following kinds of genes would you expect to be mutated?

a. genes coding for enzymes that act in the colon
b. genes involved in control of the cell cycle
c. genes that are especially susceptible to mutation
d. the same genes that Knudsen identified as associated with retinoblastoma
e. the genes of the bacteria that are abundant in the colon

My aunt was very recently diagnosed with colon cancer, and is currently in the hospital. I am very worried about her, and I don’t really know anything about this form of cancer. Is it easy to cure? How long does treatment typically take? Can your body reject or rufuse treatment?

Just wondering where the cancer can go and what are treatments as it spreads?

what is colorectal cancer? what is its structure? Is there any good methods to cure it currently in the world?

A person I love have stage 3 or maybe 4 colon cancer و she made a surgery for cancer in the ovarian and uterian , she has small nodes in the colon and by the way she also removed part of the colon in the surgery 2 .. any way the doc told Us that her sucess rate is 80 percent . The prb she has animia now and she is not eating well , also she had bad kidney prbs since her kidney functions wasn’t good before desicovering her cancer …

My question Is
1- how i can encourage her to eat , what food can boost her immunity and benefit her in cancer ?

2-I heard chemo can kills , does alternative treatment is best ? if so why all people are just taking chemo ?
i heard
Protocel
Cesium High pH Therapy
can help in her case , is that really true ? is cesium more effective ? shall she stop the chemo & take this …

can she takes this medecine along with chemo or not ?

also last question is possible to keep prevent healthy cell from being damaged during chemo ? is there sometips or so ?

If the answer is no please tell me the differences between the two.

thannnkyouuu!

Is he lying? He only comes up with a symptom when he is in a bind somehow and doesn’t go to the doctor at all. He claimed to be in a car accident about a month ago because he went blind while driving, yet no one knows for sure because he went to the hospital alone and no one has seen reports of this accident or hospital stay. How can I be sure?
