This Dr. thinks the very act of cutting out the tumor activates cancer cells that have already escaped to other parts of the body.

He says this could be prevented if the surgeon would administer an NSAID prior to surgery.

My wife had a lump removed in early 2013. The surgeon said it was well localized and got it all, and the associated lymph nodes was clear.

Yet in 2018 we learned it had spread to her spine and both femurs. She died last October.

I tried to get her oncologist and PA to watch the video prior to a biopsy but they wouldn’t listen, saying the risk of bleeding was greater than the risk of spreading it further.

That's quite interesting. In December 2019 I was diagnosed with Merkel Cell Carcinoma, a very aggressive skin cancer that had moved into my left shoulder and cheek. Major operation in February removed everything we thought only to find in April that it had spread through out my entire body cavity. Then my oncologist told me about Keytruda, a dangerous new approach with infusions every six weeks. I started in may with the $30,000 infusions. Thank heaven for Medicare. On December 23 the cancer was gone.

Luckily I am here on FR to tell about it

I am sorry. That is so sad.
