HALICHONDRIN B......
My daughter who has pretty much run the gamut of treatments, was given this drug (which not much has been written about) and her scans last week were AWESOME. All the liver and lung tumors from the original IBC have shrunk.
This is the first time in a year anything has even touched the progressively growing tumors.
Look up HALICHONDRIN on Google. It is fascinating what mother nature brings to our needy table.

I just wanted to comment on the tumeric again. My oncologist told me that have are doing research on tumeric at MD Anderson and that it is showing promising results. She told me it would be fine for me to take it. My results have been good. I don't know for sure if the turmeric has helped or not, but I am going to continue to take it. I will probably now add golden flax seeds.

Halichondrin

Hi Atee,

So happy to read your great news on your daughter. I looked up Halichondrin
on google as you mentioned. I have a question, is your daughter in a trial,
or has she been given the drug off label?

Wishing you continued good health.

Jean
