combined modality treatment means combinations of all modalities…the modalities for cancer are surgery , radiotherapy and chemo.
These are used one after the other for a breast cancer.
for initial stage patient is taken up for surgery first
If breast conservation surgery done then radiotherapy follows surgery which is followed by chemo. otherwise after total removal of breast or mastectomy chemo only. followed by hormonal therapy depending on hormonal status
The latest American Cancer Society data indicates that 89% of newly diagnosed breast cancers are now cured with current therapy which is usually combined modality, so I STRONGLY suggest NOT using homeopathic treatment for a deadly disease that is now so often cured with mainstream therapy.
Most primary breast cancers are now treated with lumpectomy and radiation therapy – two modalities – 1. surgery and 2. radiation. [Mastectomy is much less common today.] A third modality 3. Chemotherapy – drugs usually given by vein that can kill cancer cells throughout the body – is recommended if the primary breast cancer shows signs that suggest a significant possibility of microscopic distant spread of the malignant cells.
Added note – I should correct that the 89% figure is for five year survivals which is not truly a “cure” for breast cancer since it can come back after five years in some cases – - But, it is necessary to have an initial five year disease free interval to eventually realize a “cure.” We do not know about “cures” for sure until maybe 20 years have gone by.
Clearly the vast majority of stage I and II breast cancers patients are cured with current combined modality therapy.
I would suggest homeopathic therapy for pancreatic cancer, advanced non-small cell lung cancers, and other types of cancer for which rational, scientific, modern medicine has no good treatment.
The lump and maybe surrounding tissue and lymph nodes are removed (surgical modality). If lymph nodes are cancerous then radiation (another modality) and chemo are used.

Incredible! Thanks a lot! I always wanted to create in my site something like that. May I have part of your post for my own site?
