Patrick has had 5 top of the line chemo treatments. The cancer as far as I can find out is in the lungs, and lymph nodes and possibly in the blood stream. It is I believe the small cell type. The Dr. says the chemo is not working now and basically has given him no hope of surviving. That is why we are desperately looking into C therapy. Proton treatment also seems to be out of the question. Thank-you for yur interst and advice Judy. Pete

Thank-you Donna, He is going to Mass Gen'l for a second opinion. However the Dr. he will see is somehow connected with his Dr. Not sure how that will turn out. His primary Dr. is supposed to be an excellent cancer treatment Dr. We are still looking at Vitamin C therapy and trying to get a Dr. to administer it at a reasonable cost. Have found one that does not have the $2000. "management fee" upfront, so we'll see if we can swing that. Thanks again. Pete

Many thanks again Katie! Pete

Thank-you Katie, appreciate your input and support. So far have not been able to contact the reporter. Have a great day. Pete

Thank-you Annette for your response and information. Wshing you the best in your upcoming scan! Will say prayers for you. Pete

Hello, I am searching for someone in Florida or Mass.(or anywhere), that gives low cost IV C treatments.The costs so far uncovered are really out of reach of the ordinary person. An example is in Delray Beach, Fl. An upfront cost of $2000. for a "management fee". $250 to $275. per treatment, plus $295. consultation fee, (1 hour). Then the costs of scans etc etc. There has to be someone, somewhere that is more reasonable in the costs? I am looking at this for my 50 year old son in Massachusetts who has stage 4 LC. His top of the line chemo stopped working and his Dr. told him he can just go home , or try a lower dose of chemo which he is in the pocess of doing. I have been impressed with some of the results I have read about with the Vitamin C injections, and it may be his only shot left. Thanks for listening and I hope someone knows some info on lower costs. Regards, Pete

Hello, my name is Pete. I have joined this group as my 50 year old son in Mass. has stage 4 lung cancer. He lives in Mass. and I in Florida. Chemo has stopped working. We are interested in Vitamin C injections, however the costs are staggering for treatment. (Will be going to the proper forum to discuss this). Look forward to meeting you all. Pete
