Brain Tumour – Tennis Ball Sized

Dear Chris,

A good day to you. My name is U and I came across your website while searching for information on brain tumour. My father just went for a MRI scan and diagnosed with growth in the brain. The growth is in the size of a tennis ball. The doctor suggested biopsy but we are not keen in doing that?

How can we go on about this ? Do you have a centre in KL? Thank you in advance for your time. Best Regards,

Metastatic Brain Cancer

Dear Dr Chris,

I’m from Jakarta-Indonesia. My Mom, 62 –year-old was diagnosed with Brain Tumour (Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma). She has already undergone a tumor operation (the biggest is in her right side, two other is small and inside the brain) at L Hospital, Penang, by Dr. X, brain surgeon.

Unfortunately after the surgery, my mom had complications, so for almost three weeks she was in CCU. She hardly could breathe and see at first, then CCU doctor, Dr. Y suggested to make a ventilator in her throat so she can breathe easily, but still helped by a machine (70%). Meanwhile Dr A assigned Dr Z to help shrink my mom’s left tumor near her brain because the tumor keeps pushing her neuro-system which makes her unable to see, move and breathe. So Dr Z gave 10-15 times of radiation. After the radiation, my mom can now breathe using regular oxygen and move to regular room.

Since she moved to regular room, Dr X assigned neurologist Dr S to help my mom physiotherapy so she can move her body part and sit, because my mom still sleeps in bed. Dr Z said he can’t start treatment if my mom’s condition is still weak. Her right body part cannot really move unlike the left side, and now she is using ventilator with 2 liter oxygen per day.

My mom is almost a month in L Hospital. Now we run out of finance. Dr Z suggested that we bring my mom home and make sure there is neurologist who can handle my mom in Jakarta. After she gets better, she can start the treatment.

With this letter, I really need your help. What should we do with my mom?  Now, she is still in L Hospital and is being taken care of by my sister. We really want to meet you and discuss about this. My sister just calling your clinic but there is no answer. If you don’t mind, would you call her back on her cell phone? We really appreciate your prompt feedback.

Lung-Brain Cancer from France

Dear Dr Chris Teo,

My good friend CP from Thailand spoke to me very highly of you and your achievements. Having witnessed her considerable energy, I would like to ask your advice and guidance concerning my childhood friend, P, who lives in France.

Six months ago, P was diagnosed with lung cancer. He had also metastases in the whole of his body. Until now, he received 6 sessions of chemotherapy. They have now started radiotherapy as well and P is totally exhausted. Fortunately, his pain is perfectly controlled by patches of morphine.

…  have seen all your videos and read the testimony of your patients. It is amazing! In the present situation, Pierre is too weak to travel. If you receive a copy of all treatments he received, is it possible for you to do something for him?

I thank you very much for your attention. With my kindest regards,

Reply:  25 February 2012 – Thanks for  your email. CP did talk to me some weeks ago about this. Since he is doing chemo and radiation. Well, this is the worst thing that anyone should get and it is not going to cure him in any way. But it is not for me to say anything. Each of us need to make our own decision and choice. I need to know the most updated medical condition or reports to be able to know what to do …. How many radiation is he going to get? How many more to go? And what after radiation? What happen after chemo…any effect?

 

8 April 2012

Dear Chris,

I do apologise for answering so late to your previous email. I was waiting for the medical file of my friend P, but last time I spoke to him, he had not yet received it from the hospital. What I know is that he had 6 chemos and 4 radiations. However, since then, the metastases have increased in his lungs and other parts of the body. More than that, they recently discovered metastasis in his brain and last week, they did Gamma rays on his brain. I do not know what happened but 2 days ago, P had a cardiac incident, and he is now in emergency in cardiology. Nobody has access to him.

My last hope for him is in you.  I just called his T. Master (DR), and we agree that they are killing him. DR gave permission to ask for your help and treatment. Do you think that it is not too late? Can you still do something for him?

Reply: I am afraid there is nothing much I can do to help at this point. (Note: Patient is in ICU in a hospital somewhere in France).

Father died and now brother with Brain Cancer from Indonesia

Hello Dr. Chris Teo.

I had read your book about the breast cancer. I really amazed with all the women who fought with it and they succeed. My father got a mouth cancer , he passed away in 1996. And now my big brother is being struggle with brain tumor.

I am a kindegarten teacher, i dont have enough money to send my brother to hospital and give him the konvensional treatment. Beside of that, we had seen our father who couldn’t bear the pain of kemotherapi so surgery or kemo is not our option.

We just knew that he got the tumor since 3 months ago. At the MRI test the tumor is 4cm already. And now his eyes are blind. His blood test is good, except his uric acid is 9. He is very tough and never complain. He still single, so i am the one who can take care of him.

I give him the diet that u said in the book. And take Sarang semut from papua and the soursop leaf as his medicine. Dr. Chris, can you give me any suggestion ? In My limitation, i want to give him the best.

Brain Cancer from Sri Lanka: He Died

Dear Mr. Chris,

I would like to know what ingredients e found in the Brain Tea & Capsule A.

My husband also underwent a brain surgery for a tumor found between the brain stem & cerebellum. After the surgery he did not regain conscious as fluid filled in the brain and due to pressure the brain swelled. This is because the Dr. had not put the V.P. shunt for the draining of the fluid.

My husband was in an unconscious state and very gradually gained little conscious after about 8mths and lived for 3 yrs in a semi vegetative state with feeding done through a peg tube and breathing with a tracheostomy. He finally passed away 3 mths back following a brain seizure.

I am very interested in knowing the miraculous effect of the herbal drug and I really regret that such miraculous healing medicines  never came to light when I was looking for various recovery treatment for my husband.

Thanks & best regards,

Brain Cancer from Jakarta

Hi Dr Chris,

My name is L from Jakarta, currently my lovely wife (43 years, with 3 children) is in hospital in Jakarta. She had a tumor and surgery has been done on Monday. She is still in recovery phase. Before she had difficulties in maintaining balance when she walked and drunk fluid and she had headache. Initial prediction the tumor is ependymoma and the location is between brain stem and cerebellum. After surgery the doctor said probably the tumor is brain stem glioma and cannot be taken out completely which may more aggressive than ependymoma (I am still waiting the biopsy result). The doctor said follow up treatments like radiotherapy and chemotherapy may not be effective.

Unfortunately I just found your website after the surgery. After reading stories in the website, I realized that the most important thing is how to survive without or less pain before Allah call us (which we really don’t know when and how).

I would like to arrange to visit you after her condition is getting better. I and my family will do anything to make sure that she spends her remaining life happy, able to do basic activities without or less pain.

We really hope that there is a way to support her to get high quality of life as long as it is allowed by Allah.

Really appreciate your response Dr. Chris.

Brain Tumour and a ? few months to live?

Dear Dr. Teo,

My name is LC. I am from Australia and I have been following your website blogs since early March of this year. I am trying to seek your advice in regards to my uncle’s recent ill health and diagnosis.

My uncle is 86 yrs old and lives in Ipoh. He has been progressively become anaemic and has to have 4 units of blood transfused 2 weeks ago. At the same time he has also been diagnosed to have a left frontal lobe brain tumour and his neurosurgeon is not keen to operate on him due to his fragile age.

When my uncle came home after the blood transfusions, he has since developed right sided weakness and can be incontinent of urine. His speech can be quite slurred too. His neurosurgeon has stopped prescribing medications for my uncle now literally saying he has only a ? few months to live .

So now my uncle is having acupuncture as well as being managed by his own GP in Ipoh. The family is at wits end as to what options are available for my uncle as Ipoh is really lacking in medical facilities. When I mentioned to my cousins about your CA Care in Penang, they asked me to approach you for advice. It is heart breaking to see my uncle whom has been a very active person and independent with ADL’s 3 weeks ago to be reduced to such a dependent stage so suddenly. I sincerely pray that you are able to offer some sort of hope for my elderly uncle.

Thank you and God Bless,

Reply: I really don’t know what I can do to help … but if you need help … ask the family member to come and see me in Penang with all the medical reports

Craniopharyngioma from Singapore

Dear Dr. Chris,

My name is C, Chinese male, 41 years of age residing in Singapore. I have visited your website www.cacare.com and would like to seek your advice as regard to my medical condition.

I was recently diagnosed with Craniopharyngiomas (Pituitary Tumor as told by my doctor) at the Singapore General Hospital. MRI Brain scan (Pituitary protocol) has been performed. My left eye has only 50% vision and my right eye has 80%. The doctor has advised that surgery needs to be carried out either through the mouth or worst case through the skull above the head in order to remove the tumor.

I sincerely hope that you would be able to provide me with your expert view and advice on whether my condition would be able to be treated without undergoing the knife. I have all the doctor’s diagnostic reports and scans. I am available to visit you in Penang any time soon.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Regards,

Brain Cancer from Singapore

Hi Dr Teo

My husband has just been diagnosed with pituitary macroadenoma and has been advised to go for surgery.  The neurosurgeon explained the procedure to my husband and we were frightened by the description of what surgery entails, together with the attendant risks.  Will the kind of cures that CA Care offers to cancer patients be of help in his case?  We are prepared to come to Penang and bring the CD of the MRI scan for a consultation if it is possible to effect a cure without surgery.

Reply:  There is NO cure for any cancer … it does not matter if it is surgery, chemo or radiation …or my herbs …absolutely no cure. Please read this article that I wrote:

http://cancercaremalaysia.com/2011/01/16/brain-cancer-%E2%80%93-marvelous-technology-dismal-outcome/

Thanks for your prompt reply.  We will try to arrange a visit to Penang soonest possible.  For now, my husband has no symptoms and leads a normal life – if the tumour does not grow any more, it would be a good enough outcome for us.  If it shrinks, that would be a bonus

Brain Cancer (Glioblastoma Multiforme)

My mom was diagnosed with GBM on 4/11/2010 and biopsy performed on the following day. Doctor in Singapore advised to go for radio and chemotherapy (temolozomide). However, two weeks and three days her condition has dropped rapidly. She slept most of the time. We decided to go to Beijing for second opinion. Upon arrival, Doctor in Beijing said the tumor has become much bigger. It is because of biopsy only in previous surgery, not resection. It could be fatal for second surgery and radiotherapy according to him.

In the end, she went for chemotherapy nimustine hydrochloride as they found out that her cancer cell respond better with it than temolozomide. First chemo was successful, tumor shrank and my mom was able to talk again and recognize us. However, the tumor grew back very quickly and second chemo did not have any effects. Doctor in Beijing gave up and asked us to go home. Upon reaching Singapore, my mom condition had deteriorated until she did not open her eyes most of the time.

Reply: Come and see me in Penang with all the medical reports. No need to bring the patient.

Hi Chris,
The latest MRI scan is downloadable from the link I gave you previously. Blood test will only be available in the next few days. Do I still need to go there to get the herbs or you can just post it after I purchased?

Reply: Sorry we don’t sell herbs and we are not a direct-selling on-line outfit. 

 

Lung to Brain

Dear Dr Chris,

We met few months ago and I did took some herbs for a few months. I stopped taking the herbs when I went for radiotherapy in January this year.

In December, 2008, brain tumour was detected. In order to relieve the pressure building up in the brain, I went to radiotherapy. The experience was bad. I was down for more than 2 weeks and have to depend on wheelchair to move around. I stopped taking CA herbs till now. I am getting better and I still have the confidence in CA herb. Please advise whether I should continue with the same herb, i.e. Lung 1, Lung 2 and capsule A?

Best regard.

 

Brain Cancer: After several operations and chemo – doctor gave up

Dear Dr. Teo,

I come across your name after I search for information about cancer.
This is about my brother, who suffers from brain cancer. He has been operated on several times and taken chemotherapy in Penang at Loh Guan Lye and on 31 December 2008 the doctors gave up and we are requested to bring him back to Jakarta.

We have not heard about you at that time. I studied about cancer a bit since then and we tried some herbal including the Keladi Tikus.

Since I am going to Penang on March 27, 2009, I would like to visit you and ask for advise for the case of my brother. If you can spare me sometime I would be very grateful.
