Question

Is there any medicine for spreaded Bone Cancer?

Answer 1

If you're looking for an alternative therapy, I would suggest you find a homeopath that is familiar with the "plussing method." I've posted two links at the bottom. The first is a link describing the method. The second link is to help you find a homeopath. There's a state-by-state listing of them on the web site.

I have Dr. R's book, and it covers many case studies where this therapy worked. It also gives detailed instructions on how to do it.

Answer 2

There is a difference between "bone cancer" and "cancer spread to bone",..
Our first answerer has conviniently copy>pasted from somewhere,..

Yes there are medicines that help,.. depends upon the cancer which has spread i.e. the original site and also the histology

One medicine that has recently shown good effect is zoledronate,iprabromate,.. this doesn't really help the cancer but helps the bone,.. but one has gotta use it after a lot of evaluation

Bone cancer is treated with surgery, radiation therapy, and/or chemotherapy. The doctor often uses a combination of treatment methods, depending on the patient's needs. Patients may be referred to doctors who specialize in different kinds of cancer treatment. Often, the specialists work together as a team. The team may include a surgeon, a pediatric oncologist, and a radiation oncologist.

Surgery is part of the treatment for most bone cancers. Because the disease may recur near the original site, the surgeon removes the tumor and some healthy bone and other tissue around the tumor.

When bone cancer occurs in an arm or leg, the surgeon tries, whenever possible, to remove just the tumor and an area of healthy tissue around it. Sometimes, the surgeon can use a metal device to replace the bone that is removed. In some children, the surgeon may replace the bone with a metal device that can be lengthened as the child grows. This limb-sparing procedure will require additional operations to keep expanding the artificial bone.

Sometimes, however, when the tumor is large, amputation may be necessary. If the limb is removed, a prosthesis (artificial part) can be made. The artificial part takes the place of a leg, arm, hand, or foot.

Chemotherapy uses drugs to kill cancer cells. Often, a combination of three or more drugs is used. Chemotherapy can be given by mouth or by injection into a muscle or blood vessel. The drugs travel through the body in the bloodstream. Chemotherapy is given in cycles: a treatment period followed by a recovery period, then another treatment and recovery period, and so on.

Some patients have chemotherapy as an outpatient at the hospital, clinic, or doctor's office or at home. Depending on which drugs are given, however, the patient may need to stay in the hospital for a short while.

Chemotherapy is almost always used in combination with surgery for cancers of the bone. Sometimes, chemotherapy is used to shrink a tumor before surgery. It is also used as an adjuvant therapy after surgery to kill cancer cells that may remain in the body and to prevent the disease from recurring. In some cases, a patient may have chemotherapy both before and after surgery. For some bone cancer, chemotherapy is combined with radiation therapy. Chemotherapy can also be used to control bone cancer that has spread.

Radiation therapy (also called radiotherapy) uses high-energy rays to damage cancer cells and stop them from growing. In some cases, radiation therapy is used instead of surgery to destroy the tumor. This form of treatment can also be used to destroy cancer cells that remain in the area after surgery.

The patient goes to the hospital or clinic each day for radiation treatments. Usually, treatments are given 5 days a week for 5 to 8 weeks.

Cancers that begin in bone are rare. It is not unusual for cancers to spread to bone from other parts of the body. This is not called bone cancer, but is named for the organ or tissue in which the cancer begins.

Pain is the most frequent symptom of cancer of the bone.
Diagnosis of cancer of the bone is supported by findings of the medical history and examination, blood and x-ray tests and confirmed with a biopsy.

Treatment of cancer of the bone depends on the type, location, size, and extent of the tumor as well as the age and health of the patient.
