Case Presentation Pancreatic Cancer

Eileen A. U 55 yr old Female:
(Spring 2010)
After many weeks and 50 lb weight loss, abdominal pain, nausea .They tested her
( Lab work, ultrasound, x-ray and MRI) ..... telling her nothing was wrong.
It was when she went to a 2nd MD he found and diagnosed her as:
Stage 4 Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas. She was told it was aggressive and inoperable and told she had "months to a year to live."
The surgery ( if a candidate) is called Whipple Procedure, if you survive the surgery, life after is very difficult, due to the devastating resection of the GI tract.
The only Chemo offered ( began in the summer ), was an experimental program.
A combination of 3 currently used chemo's, at the same time,once a week, every 3 weeks.
( Shecontinued  to have wt loss, nausea/vomiting and all her hair fell out, her color was a gray brown).
She was really struggling and ready to throw in the towel.
August of 2010
She began High Dose Vitamin C Infusions in my office at   50Gms twice weekly (due to finances) . She is now able to keep food down and has an increase in appetite. She felt an increase in energy and negotiated the last of the chemo much better. Not struggling anymore. Beginning to feel better, less nausea and vomiting. Energy, sense of wellbeing and sleep improving. Lab work back to normal .
October 2010
NONE of the other patients, (NOT ONE) in Eileen's Chemo study completed the therapy due to extreme toxicity. She took, negotiated and completed the therapy, because she was assisted nutritionally with High Dose IV Vitamin C . She was re-scanned and sought a  second surgical re assessment and opinion  .....
November 2010. She has received approx. 24 doses of High Dose Vitamin C and is being prepared for surgery. Not the Whipple, not even removal of the Pancreas, ( would have made her a Diabetic)
Just tumor removal, she is 20 pounds heavier, no nausea or vomiting , skin color and lab work coming back to normal. She is scheduled for surgery just after holidays and looks forward to total resection of tumor, leaving her Pancreas. She has no metastasis and expects this to be the end of her battle with Pancreatic Cancer.......to be continued,
Incidently, 2 months ago she could barely walk ,  last weekend 11/6 , she completed a 5 K walk for Pancreatic Cancer Research.
