Lise underwent surgery and braved radiation on her brain and hip for six weeks, only to find that another tumor had developed in her right leg. Now Lise is on successful chemotherapy. She’s just begun aquatic therapy in the HydroWorx physical therapy pool at ACCUA in Savage, MN. The rehab pool provides an effective workout without any pounding on her compromised lower body.

Why was the patient in pain? What would eventually have happened to the lung on the injured side if noone help?
Question by : Why was the patient in pain? What would eventually have happened to the lung on the injured side if noone help?
A victim of a car accident was lying in pain by the side of the road with a thoracic wound which was making a strange sucking noise with each labored inhalation. A passing off-duty paramedic applied a moist plastic sheet to the wound and the sound stopped. Why was it important that the plastic sheet be moist?
Best answer:
Answer by Sunny
It is important to be moist so air cannot pass through as easily. It sounds like the patient had a pneumothorax, which is a hole in the chest cavity. It was getting harder to breathe because air was going into the cavity and can compress the lung. A tension pneumothorax can actually shift the heart and trachea and be deadly if not promptly treated.

Q&A: What could it mean if a stage 4 breast cancer patient had “fluid in the heart”?
Question by gg: What could it mean if a stage 4 breast cancer patient had “fluid in the heart”?
Sorry, details are not available.
She is getting treatment in Mexico, and that is the only info I have.
She already has the breast cancer in her lungs and bones.
She just went for her first chemo treatment, but before the treatment, they got the cardio results, and the “water on the heart” diagnosis came up….
Is this typical of something for breast cancer patients?
Please don’t cut and paste from self-diagnosis websites.
I need to know your personal knowlege and experiences with this occurence.
(Do most b cancer patients have this when the cancer has spread to the heart?)
Best answer:
Answer by gangadharan nair

Brain cancer -how long will a patient live for?
Question by ready_to_rumble: Brain cancer -how long will a patient live for?
I have a relative who was diagnosed with brain cancer about a year ago and he’s been doing chemo ever since. Unfortunately last week he was rushed to the ICU due to heart problems (caused by the chemo medication) and now one of his lungs has stopped functioning. Since then his chemo therapy has been stopped to prevent further heart issues.
Right now he can speak but it’s a little difficult to understand his words. Also the left side of his body was paralyzed a couple of months ago due to a seizure.
With all that said, does anybody know how long he will be around for? Thanks.
Best answer:
Answer by Jessica Laborde
It depends on what stage its at. If they can do surgery, if the chemo kills it. I had bone cancer. I know that chemo can kill you if you take too much. The cancer can also tho. Anyways I’m not saying the chemo will. It helps him. I would just pray on it. Know when he does go he won’t be in pain anymore. I’m sorry

Should copd patient have an oxygen tester, what levels should oxygen be started? What is a safe oxygen level?
Question by ascendent2: Should copd patient have an oxygen tester, what levels should oxygen be started? What is a safe oxygen level?
Sorry for asking 3 questions but it is 5 points. Friend has copd. Oxygen level was running at 95-97. Now is 90. Uses nebulizer at home was told she could use it more than just at night. I’m concerned this could be a damaging level. My mom also had this disease her specialist did just the opposite started on oxygen first, 10 yrs. later started nebulizer. Everyone is different and this may have been protocol back then.
Best answer:
Answer by mommy4lex
yes it would probably be a good idea for your friend to have an o2 tester, after the o2 levels drop under 91 they go into the red , anything over 91 is good but the higher the number the better the levels.

Human have many lymph nodes in our body, include in the area around prostate.
Lymph node enlargement can be early sign of cancer, but also can be sign of infection.
No one here can tell you if it is cancer or not.
Your father’s doctor will have to perform biopsy to diagnosed your father.
Good luck.

lung cancer patient was told by Dr. that’s all folks cant do any more for you, after falling for the 4th time?
Question by themaggie5: lung cancer patient was told by Dr. that’s all folks cant do any more for you, after falling for the 4th time?
is there any truth to that, she has been falling getting out of bed ( I think ) to fast to go the bath room and gets dizzy and no one there to help her and she falls but the Doctor has the balls to tell her just in these WORDS that all folks , she was told the first time this past Feb,13,2010 that she had cancer and all the chemo treatments they kept saying it was working perfect and the cancer was getting smaller and it was under control, now thats all folks ?
Best answer:
Answer by Denisedds
It is hard to imagine the doctor would have told her it was under control when that is so very unlikely.
She can always get a second opinion.
However, she should have been told without surgery her chances of survival are zip.
I’m sorry, but it is true.

Cancer patient finds strength to help save lives of others
(NECN: Ally Donnelly, Yarmouth, Mass.) – This is one of Paul McBrides favorite views. Walking along Parker’s River behind the Red Jacket resort in Yarmouth, Mass on Cape Cod. McBride started working for Red Jacket when he was 18 — in his words, emptying trash barrels and swingin’ a paintbrush. McBride: It was, yep we can use you, and we’d like to employ you, you show up when I tell ya, do what I tell ya, and Ill pay you on Friday. And that was 45 years ago. A lot has happened in 45 years. 63-year-old McBride has worked his way up the Red Jacket ladder — he is now the resort’s executive vice president. He married the love of his life, Carol. They have two grown children and two grandchildren. McBride: Ive been gifted to have a nice place to live, a great family, and just a wonderful run here for 63 and a half years. I hope I don’t put too much pain and, suffering on my loved ones. If it’s gonna be it’s gonna be. In September, McBride collapsed. His vision was blurry, his speech slurred. He doesn’t remember much until he woke up with a neurosurgeon by his side. McBride: Ha! That’s a toughie. What am I doing here? And this doesn’t look good. Doctors told McBride he had two tumors. One which they quickly removed through surgery — another — inoperable tumor — on his brain stem. He also soon learned — that the cancer had spread to his lungs, lymph nodes and back. McBride: I guess my question to the oncologist was pretty direct. It was…if you took a group of 30 to 50 …

We are being sprayed with chemicals and the weather people call them clouds. The rise in lung cancer with a decline in smokers, the rise in childhood asthma, chronic bronchitis and copd….oh yeah, and Morgellons syndrome….can be correlated with the start of the heavy chemtrail/geoengineering program that ramped up in the 90′s…mortality rates have gone way up.
