For the decision of chemotherapy and radiation therapy you need to share the final Histopathology report here

Dr. Muhammad Arif Ch · Answer

Need to know details of pathology report,her heart disease details.
Depending on type of breast cancer some woman have option of avoiding chemotherapy and some don't, especially if interested in making sure and doing everything possible so that cancer doesn't come back.

Few months ago i was diagnosed with oral cancer as head and Neck cancer.
I got biopsy test in ramadhan and confirmed cancer.
We applied for medical visa to india and there diagnosed with lungs metastasis through PET CT.
Doctor in india suggested chemo therapy with 1st cycle of docetaxel and carbuplatin and second with docetaxel cisplatin 5FU.
After these chemos we dis PET CT and it shows no improvement rather more spread in lungs.
Need your suggestion for improvement.

Regarding breast cancer, staging workup, histopathology report, receptor status should be available before deciding the treatment with or without chemotherapy.

Dr. Abdul Qayyum · Answer

Patient with oral cancer, disease progressed on chemotherapy, there are other options for treatment like TPF OR mTPF, targeted agents etc.
