IS CHEMOTHERAPY AFTER SURGERY,A WISE DECISION?
After a clean and complete removal of the tumor, there should not be any need of chemotherapy. If it is started with a thought to eradicate the tumor cells that might have escaped surgery decision will not be wise. Reason being, most anti tumor drugs whether they belong to anti mitotic, anti metabolite, alkylating group or any other group are cytostatic, meaning they do not kill tumor cells rather halt their division or growth and it is job of body immunity to kill left over dormant and resistant tumor cells through humoral and cellular immunity. Role of cellular immunity is more important in this respect. But in most of the cases weak immunity because of disease itself, further weakened by the conventional anti tumor drugs is not sufficient . Remission, because of tumor load reduction due to surgery and cytostatic effect of drugs, is not permanent, and tumor relapses again.As drugs are cytostatic, body's other systems, in particular having rapidly growing cell get effected, resulting in horrifying side effects like hair fall, nausea, vomiting, loose motions, bleeding, sterility, susceptibility to sever infections and importantly reduced tumor immunity.
So, good immune boosters having additional natural anticancer ingredients, like EASTERN PANACEA, and not conventional chemotherapeutic drugs, are better choice after tumor surgery.
