My Dad died from cancer that began in the liver and traveled thru his body. He started radiation and then switched to chemo. I was told because radiation was not working. What I wonder is, why would they think chemo would work? Now my sister has been diagnosed w/ breast cancer and wonders what her options are. Going by our Dad's experience, makes her choices harder to make. Can anyone who has gone thru either of these treatments, shed some light for us. The pros and cons of the treatment path you took.

I found a small nodule just under the skin in my armpit because of tenderness in the area. I don't have any symptoms of flu, cold, etc. that should cause inflammatory response. Is this probable a sebaceous cyst? Should I see a doctor or wait a few days to see if there's any change? What type of doctor should I see?

I recieved an email from a cancer website, and it said that if you freeze a water bottle it's bad, like the pieces of plastic or something? Thank you.

I find it sickening that supposedly, colorectal cancer affects people around age 60 or whatever...Yet the only cases I've ever heard of are people in their 20's and 30's.....I even know someone diagnosed with it in their 20's....What's going on? Why would these people have this cancer at such a young age??? some kind of genetic defect, or perhaps some other disease might have triggered it or what???

I've noticed a slight painless swelling of a lymph node on my neck (I think a posterior cervical node) for a few weeks now. It's probably about 1 cm x 0.5 cm, which isn't that big, but it's noticeably larger than the node on the other side. I've also had some subtle aching around the back of my jawline. I feel healthy otherwise. I have lost about 6-8 pounds over the last 2 months, but I also started working out more and eating much more healthy a few months ago.
Being a natural hypochondriac, I assumed lymphoma and saw a doctor. I got antibiotics-no change. Recently, I had left side abdominal tenderness for a few days, which is mostly gone now, and my doctor said my spleen may be enlarged. He did a mono test, which was negative, but he said not to worry, as it was probably another viral infection, and my lymph node wasn't even really enlarged. My blood tests came back with slightly decreased WBC and increased monocytes. Should I get another opinion now or just keep an eye on it?

For the past month an a half I have had an enlarged left supraclavicular lymph node (about the size of a golf ball). The doctor has done blood work that confirmed A: no infection viral or bacterial in my body B: severe anemia C: my wbc is 3.1 D: I have billirubin in my urine along with protien and E: my liver function is awlful. I have for the past 4 days spiked a temp of about 102 every evening. I had a chest xray and ct of my neck done today confirming the large large node....
I have also recently had biopsies done of my whole gi tract during endoscopy with no malingancies in my gi tract.
Anyone have any experience with this?
