Dear Ms. lybrate-user
yes you may preferably take country fowl egg that would be better as other types of eggs may contain antibiotics and other contaminants that might be harmful to you. Veggies you can shift to organic ones that would be better for you.
Thanks!

आमतौर पर स्टेज 1 और स्टेज 2 में सर्जरी की जाती है, जबकि स्टेज 3 और स्टेज 4 में सर्जरी, कीमो और रेडिएशन में से किन्हीं दो का कॉम्बिनेशन इस्तेमाल किया जाता है। कौन-से दो तरीके इस्तेमाल होंगे, यह मरीज की हालत देखकर डॉक्टर तय करते हैं।

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
After 2–5 years: the risk of stroke drops to that of someone who does not smoke, according to the cdc. After 5–15 years: the risk of mouth, throat, esophagus, and bladder cancer is reduced by half. After 10 years: the risk of lung cancer and bladder cancer is half that of someone who currently smokes.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

Yes. This may happen in some cases. Typically after 6 cycles of double agent chemotherapy we keep patient on maintainance therapy with pemetrexed till disease progression. Else pt will need to be put on 2 nd line chemotherapy or immunotherapy.

MD-Radiation Oncology, MBBS

Oncologist•Delhi
Hello.
Its a good sign that your tumor has responded to chemotherapy and has decreased in size.

If patient get better result in 1st chemotherapy setting it's really appreciating.
Also biopsy report is normal so that my suggestion is you must complete all cycles of chemotherapy with proper advice of your ca specialist.
Ayurvedic medicines helps to improve general condition of patient.
Example:- hyperacidity, gastritis, nausea, anorexia, skin rashesh, skin irritations, hair loss, hot flushesh, burning of eyes, insomnia, generalised weakness along with bodyache.

Hi lybrate-user. Lung cancer does not carry a good prognosis. Your father in lawhas stage 4 disease which has been treated with chemotherapy and targeted therapy. If your father in law has developed respiratory problems even after osimertinib, it means that the disease is in progression. He should undergo imaging with ct scan of chest to assess the disease extent.
