(With regard to a bladder lesion/tumor.) My mother needs this procedure but we don't know how to translate it exactly to discuss with doctors.

Wow no I have never heard of that. I think as the other user suggested, you should definitely seek a second opinion (outside that hospital, a completely different specialist) before proceeding with this radical treatment. Good luck honey!

i'm really sorry to tell you but malignant means that it is cancer.  if she has a lumpectomy (removal of the cancerous lump) or a mastectomy (removal of the whole breast) the cancer will be gone, unless the doctors determine that it has spread or not.  don't worry, my mom had breast cancer about 5 years ago & she had it removed, did chemotheraphy (which is probably what your step-mom will do), & even radiation for extra measures.  she is fine today & even considered a survivor!  but i know how you feel.. always have hope & be strong!  :)  and remember: they're coming out w/new cures & treatments everyday!

ask her physician before hand.  they should be happy to help.  Also consult with the patient before planning her life.

I believe you're talking about a cyst. The definition of a cyst in my medical dictionary is: 1.bladder. 2. An abnormal sac containing gas, fluid, or a semisolid material, with a membranous lining.\nNow in plain English: it can be on any part of the body and you can have more that one. Some common types are found in the groin area and are ingrown hairs, men will have them in their beards. They can be at the wrist and due to a problem of repetitive trauma. You could have a cyst anywhere due to infection. There are so many types and so many different reasons for cysts, it would take all day to explain. So I hope that some of this information was helpful to you, AND they DON'T go away on their own, they MUST be treated!

Cyst - Cancer?\n\nWhat seems nowadays called cancer may not necessarily be cancer as far as life energy is concerned. True cancer has a certain form of life energy seen on Tesla-Kirlian photographs research by Thelma Moss, in the 1970s). Nine out of nine people diagnosed for cancer had no cancerous life energy!\n\nBefore trying the hard way I would try the soft ways first if I were your relative. \n\nMay be a second opinion would be advisable; may be a consultation with a physician who is familiar with natural healing (NMD, ND, homeopathic physician; phone book). A woman diagnosed with "breast cancer" had a fatty tumor (accumulation of indigestible fats from eating cheese with hydrogenated fats, transfats), which the physician confirmed after being asked specifics.\n\nFear is certainly the worst to get well.\n\nThere may be ways to allow the body to heal unmutilated.\n\nA diet change may be necessary to allow the body to become alkaline (urine and saliva). When the body is alkaline (urine and saliva at 7.5 at all times), the body is likely to heal. A roll of pH paper to measure the pH is available at health food stores (about $12). There are books on alkaline-forming foods, there are alkaline-forming products! Baking soda is not advisable, since it is far too alkaline for the body and can hurt the stomach!\n\nDinshah Color MedicineTM has been used in the past to shrink tumors. The colors have certain frequencies, one of which has dissolved tumors in the past (see http://www.biochakra.com). It is a method easy to use at home, which I found very effective. There are books on this matter, e.g. Color Medicine by Charles Klotsche (may be second hand at amazon.com, or barnesandnoble.com) or Let there be Light by Darius Dinshah. These books tell you how to use the frequencies properly. Advanced hospitals in Europe use color healing, whereas only blue is used in US hospitals so far. Yet, the coats of the surgeons are green, because this color hinders microorganisms. There must be something to color healing! Imagine when one uses a light with the colors instead of just a cloth: it is healing with the speed of light, literally! The correct frequency is important.\n\nFurthermore, homeopathy has remedies which have worked in the past when nothing else had. \n\nYet, when the harsh methods are used first, the body has a harder time to absorb the gentle ones. \n\nEven the Philippine healers have worked miracles with energy from their bare hands.\n\nMiracles have happened, there is always a good solution.\n\nWishing your father-in-law a gentle healing.\nCordially, India.Magica

I tend to agree with the above person. Although there seems to be quite a bit of info on the internet, it's often better to have it explained to you by an expert. There are different treatment modalities, that I won't go into here. Best to speak in depth with your childs doctor. Best of wishes.\n\nHave you discussed surgical options?

This can occur with several different bladder/urinary conditions.  He needs to see a physician, a urologist would be best, to diagnose the exact condition.  I would advise him not to wait because some of these conditions could worsen over time if left untreated and he could end up hospitalized.

I pray that your mother's results will be ok, and that she does well. The reason I am writing is because you reminded me of the time I was waiting on my Mother's biopsy, she has breast cancer. My advice for you is to expect the worse, although we are surely not aiming for it, this way whichever way the result goes you will not be affected. Also try not to have any expectations before you understand the full picture.\nI hope all goes well. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

If you have a worn disk in your back, then you should NOT have manipulations done - you're much more likely to suffer irreversible damage.  If the chiropractor is doing low grade gentle adjustments, then that should be fine.\n\nAny bladder or bowel symptoms caused by something pressing on the nerves supplying them in the back is treated as a medical emergency - it usually means there is a central protrusion or problem in the spinal cord, and is extremely serious.\n\nYour MRI would have ruled that out - assuming it was your back that was scanned.\n\nIf the nerve supply to the bladder is intact, it's highly unlikely your bladder symptoms are related to your back problems.\n\nYou don't say whether you have children or what your general history is.  I suggest you get referred for urodynamics - a series of test to see how the bladder copes as it fills and empties.  This should throw some light on the subject.  These tests usually need to be ordered by a gynaecologist - so request  a referral to one.\n\nGood luck - be careful about what you allow to be done to your back - it has to last you a long time, and it's already damaged.

I am in the US and here they would treat gall bladder problems by removing it(surgically) and possibly the same with the section of the bowel. I would say right now your mum needs to drink lots of water if she can tolerate it this will help with kidneys and bowel issues. Also a diet high in fiber will help a little withthe bowel. Exercise and a good diet(low fat high fiber protien rich) will help her in her recovery as will a good vitamin supplement.\n\nShe has so many things going on in her body I would imagine this will take some time to be corrected. Talk to the doctor who is treating your mum(or possibly a nurse in the office) and see if he has further suggestions for you and her.\n\nBest wishes and good luck to you both!

Suggest to her and your parents that they work together ofr her treatment.  have them go with her for treatment and to help her ask questions.

I thought that you might find this informative to say the least. It will give you a better idea of what you are dealing with, unfortunately I am willing to bet that because of the situation a lawsuit may not even be considered. Sounds as if this is not a ordinary condition such as dealing with your gall bladder or appendix. In cases where they try different things in order to fix a problem that is not common it makes it difficult to prove that there is really any negligence involved. Case in point, my brother in law had lung cancer, they treated him for pneumonia for the year before it was actually diagnosis as cancer. In the mean time it had turned to small cell lung cancer, which basically is a death sentence. He died. Now the thing was is that because he was a smoker and had smoked his whole life he had symptoms of lung disease the cancer shows up on xrays very much like pneumonia and lung disease, where they negligent, well according to the lawyers my sister talked to NO. But that doesn't mean that you shouldn't consult with a medical malpractice lawyer just to be sure. The thing that I would do is get a notebook and document everything that has happened so far while it is still fresh in your minds. Have everyone that is involved write down everything they can remember. That will help when you go to talk with the lawyer. Also don't let anyone from the hopital know that you might take action. The lawyer can and will request all information and records involved in his care. Then they have people(experts) who can really tear things apart and decipher what just went on to see if there was medical malpractice.\n\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000068.htm\n\n\nAlso upon reading that article above from the link, a collapsed lung is not an uncommon thing with this condition. That I am sorry to say. Meaning, it can happen spontaniously without any trauma but just because of what is going on. Sounds like you are in for a tough time. I am truly sorry for your family and brother. My prayers will be with you.

My mom used to have a blood test machine that talked to tell her what to do when, and what the results were. It was kind of big, but it worked great for her since she couldn't see well. Ask your doctor about it.

I would be afraid, but if it was suggested to me by at least three different doctors, I would be inclined to do chemo.\nI am so sorry to hear of your mother-in-law's passing.\nIt is important to remember, though, that cancer is, indeed, a SILENT killer.  Even with all the technology and knowledge of today, doctors just aren't infallible.  They do commendable work, but they just can't hit the nail on the head every time.\nSo, so sad.  Continue being there for your husband and I sure feel badly for the loss of his mother.  I lost my mother from cancer and think of her EVERY SINGLE DAY, so I understand the "place" your husband is in.  It's the PITS.

Your mom needs to see a doctor.  It may be something as simple as a cyst or a boil or it could be cancer.  I don't know how depression could make it any better or worse, she probably just dwells on it more when she is depressed.  If it is something like a cyst, they don't have to operate.  If it is cancer, the sooner she gets treatment the more likely she is able to recover.
