Title: Radiotherapy and radio sensitizers down the track?
Post by: mwatto on February 07, 2021, 10:06:14 pm

So I read this yesterday and it bothered me having had CK two years ago. I would love to hear comments on and also I wanted to share this list of natural radio sensitizers I found. I am hoping this might invite some discussion.

Michele-

Very interesting study.  It appears that these were aggressive growth tumors and I think it was single dose radiation?  So that would make me think GK not CK.  I did have GK.  I had some pretty significant growth prior to GK.

I will also be interested in what others here think.  My thought it that I will have surgical resection down the road if need be.  Fingers crossed that is not the case.

Thank you so much for responding bfoley! I had CK 3 sessions but I really felt a bit low reading this. I asked my specialist clinic to comment but nothing so far.
