Hello People,
Has anyone tried this old chemo theraphy drug named Methotrexate known as MTX commonly? I dont know why, but our doctor has tried this for my father after giving 5 doses of Biomab (
Erbitux equivalent in India). He says that this old styled chemo might help shrinking the tumor.
He says that according to the books, there is nothing that he can try but he wants to experiment with this drug?
The present trouble my father is having is swelling on his face ( uptil eyes) that is not going away inspite of antibiotics ( Decdan - has anyone tried this antibiotic)? I researched the forum and people suggested physical theraphy. But doctor says that doing that wud aggravate t he pain...
Please let me know if you had swelling or puffiness on face and what antibiotics/medicines helped you...Someone in group was talking about olive oil and Vitamin E. Brian, Any comments?
I will take print out and show my doctor and let him decide then...
Your replies are desperately awaited...
Thanks a bunch..
Krishna
