Combining Chemotherapy and Alternative Treatments for Stomach Cancer Met to Brain: Mrs. Sioe's 10 Years Journey 联合化疗和替代疗法治疗胃癌转移至大脑:萧太太的10年之旅


Alternative Treatments for Stomach Cancer

In June 2013, Mrs. Sioe was diagnosed with stomach cancer and underwent surgery to remove a cancerous mass, approximately one-third of her stomach. Following the surgery, she underwent six cycles of chemotherapy. However, before completing the chemotherapy, the cancer reappeared near the surgery site, with additional spread to the brain. MRI results indicated 1-2 cm spread to the right and left cerebellum, causing her to be bedridden.

在2013年6月,萧太太被诊断患有胃癌,并接受手术切除了大约三分之一的胃中的癌肿。手术后,她接受了六个疗程的化疗。然而,在完成化疗之前,癌症重新出现在手术部位附近,并扩散到大脑。MRI结果显示右侧和左侧小脑出现1-2厘米的扩散,导致她卧床不起。

In September 2013, the family were seeking Alternative Treatments for Stomach Cancer to help with her condition and Mrs. Sioe's son discovered ECCT. She started ECCT in the form of helmet and blanket and combined with her current chemotherapy regime. After a short time of usage, she noticed excretion reactions such as green and black stool with a strong odor, continuous gas passing with an unpleasant smell, strong and sticky-smelling sweat, and cloudy smelly urine. Despite the unpleasant excretion, Mrs. Sioe's condition improved rapidly. She soon could sit longer, and after a while, she started standing and walking.

2013年9月,家人寻求帮助改善她的状况,萧太太的儿子发现了ECCT。她开始使用ECCT,包括头盔和毯子,并结合她目前的化疗方案。使用不久后,她注意到排泄反应,如带有强烈气味的绿色和黑色的粪便,连续排放令人不快的气体,气味浓烈且黏腻的汗水,以及混浊发臭的尿液。尽管排泄物不愉快,但萧太太的状况迅速改善。她很快能够坐得更久,一段时间后,她开始站立和行走。

After completing the last dose of chemotherapy, Mrs. Sioe continued using ECCT. One month after completion of her chemotherapy and with continuous usage of ECCT, her condition normalized, weight increased, and pain and dizziness reduced significantly without the need for painkillers. However, she did not want to go for scan till the first PET scan post starting ECCT was after 1.5 years (May 2015) indicated clear of cancer results, and she continued using ECCT to prevent recurrent for the next few years.

在完成最后一剂化疗后,萧太太继续使用ECCT。在完成化疗后一个月,并持续使用ECCT,她的状况正常化,体重增加,疼痛和头晕明显减轻,无需镇痛药。然而,她并不想在启动ECCT后的第一次PET扫描之前进行扫描,该扫描是在1.5年后(2015年5月),显示癌症消失的结果,并且她继续使用ECCT以防止癌症再发。

In July 2023, Mrs. Sioe has now reached 10 years of survival! Even with such long remissions, she unfortunately returned with complaints of vertigo. A CT scan revealed the appearance of 2 cm mass in her cerebellum. She restarts ECCT in 2023 and change a new type of helmet to cover the recurring brain tumor site. Briefly after using the new ECCT helmet, her headache and vertigo disappeared. We hope her next follow scan will show a good progress.

到了2023年7月,萧太太已经存活了10年!尽管经历了如此长时间的缓解,她不幸地出现了眩晕的症状。CT扫描显示她的小脑出现了2厘米的肿块。她于2023年重新开始使用ECCT,并更换了一种新型头盔,以覆盖再次出现的脑肿瘤部位。在使用新的ECCT头盔后不久,她的头痛和眩晕消失了。我们希望她下次的随访扫描将显示良好的进展。
