Posted on: 02/02/2011 Hello.i just read about AML and i am satisfied with the information providede. Though i have one small enquiry; Anthracycline has been listed as one of the drugs given during Chemotherapy that may cause AML in the future and yet it has been listed as a drug for treating AML. Doess it mean that you are at risk of contracting AML again? I will apprecite your assistance on this qustion..

Posted on: 02/06/2011 Anthracyclines have been found to produce AML in patients who underwent treatment for breast cancer and Hodgkin's lymphoma, especially when used with other anticancer drugs and in high doses. Currently anthracyclines are very effective in AML, and the risk of them causing AML are small, hence they are used in AML. |

Posted on: 07/06/2010 There is a research case report on certain ayrvedic drugs on Cancer (Myelofibrosis) in the google search. I think there is medicine for this disease in Ayurveda. And one of my relatives is undergoing ayrvedic treatment for myelofibrosis after it was detected from Manipal Medical College and advised there is no treatment for this in allopathy.

Posted on: 12/14/2009 hi, my father has Acute Myeloid Leukemia and an under lying condition of myloid fibrosis. He has no other side effects and often only feels tired with leg pains. It appears the cancer has come back. Has anyone tried any alternate therapies? He is on a clinical trial and seems to be baffling his doctors. Any advice?

Posted on: 11/04/2009 my sister was diagnosed with AML and she is in her second year now since she was diagnosed last year. She is ok as of now after her low dose of chemotherapy. I know that prognosis of this disease is poor. Is there patients having this kind of leukemia survived? Is there a possibility that she might respond to bone marrow transplant? Please help me to find support group that offers financial supports. Pls. let me know. Thanks. |
