Sarcoma

I am 22 years old cricket freak. Last year I was hit by a cricket ball on the left foot. The next day I noticed large swelling and unbearable pain at the impacted region. I visited a general physician who gave me some pain killers. But swelling did not subside and there was pus formation. Pus was drained. I was relieved of pain but again developed after 2-3 months at the same site. This time my physician suspected something else so he referred me to a cancer hospital at Hubli. 

On  investigation, he was diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma of the foot. Oncosurgeon advised me for excision of lesion immediately. The complete cancer part was removed. I was eager to play cricket again after recovery. Unfortunately, the disease recurred at the same place in Jun 2016. This time oncosurgeon came with a very difficult treatment option. He said they need to operate and cut my left leg below the knee joint. Yes, there was risk of spreading disease in other parts of the body. It was a very hard decision for me and my family but there was no second option. So, finally, amputation was done. I also took 3 cycles of chemotherapy thereafter. Still, there was a risk of recurrence of the disease in the future. One of my relatives advised me to take help of Ayurvedic medicines for the prevention of recurrence.

I visited Rasayu Cancer Clinic at Belgaum and met Dr. Anand in Sep 2017. After a thorough clinical examination, he advised for a PET CT scan. PET CT scan was suggestive of some weakly active nodes in the groin region and few inactive lung nodules. Considering the risk of developing metastases in the lung he advised personalized Rasayana therapy. He  explained to us in detail about the protocol of Rasayu Cancer Clinic. Today it is now more than a year and CT scan of the chest have not shown any growth in nodules. I also do not have any clinical symptoms. This means my cancer is stable. I am thankful to Dr. Anand for his efforts and support he gave for the fixation of prosthetic. Today I am not only walking independently but also playing cricket. Recently I got engaged and ready to start his second inning of life. I have confidence that Rasayana therapy will help to prevent recurrence in long run as well.

Thank you, Dr. Anand and Rasayu Cancer Clinic for support.
