Cancer is an insidious disease, with too many types and varieties to list here. When someone is diagnosed with cancer, your doctor will consult, or even turn your case over to an oncologist, or a doctor/surgeon who specializes in cancers and cancer treatments.

Patients may sometimes have a choice of procedures or treatments, but it’s always a good idea to know your options, whether they’re traditional medical approaches or alternative treatments, such as stem cell therapy. You can even combine traditional with ‘alternative’ or natural treatments, known as complimentary medical care and treatments.

A number of factors determine what type or combination of treatments may provide optimal results for each cancer patient. Such factors include the type of cancer, which organs or tissues the cancer has affected, and the overall health of the cancer patient. Cancer staging is typically defined as Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3 and Stage 4, ranging from early and localized to those that are the most severe, and which have metastasized, or spread throughout the body.
