There is alot of good information on using high dose IV Vitamin C out there. I have a neighbor diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer 9 years ago. Was diagnosed when she couldn't breathe as it was in her lungs. Two tumors in the abdomen that were the size of 5 lb Chuck roasts. Had chemo first. Then surgery and more chemo but got high dose IV C once a month the whole time with her oncs blessing. She goes to U Penn. She is not cured and is not doing very well now but it's been 9 years and she was loaded. I am not saying to do it but I am saying you should explore the option fully and make an informed decision
