Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Metastisized To The Liver With Neuroendocrine Features . What Is This And Life Span?
Mom is nearly 70 has been diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia 15 years ago. She just received a stage 4 non small cell lung cancer diagnosis metastisized to the liver with "neuroendocrine features". What are neuroendocrine features and how long does she likely have to live? Do you believe in natural methods such as the Dr. Gerson?
Hi, Sorry to listen your mother's condition. CLL is generally slowly progressive in nature, many a time treatment is delayed. Unfortunately your mom also have metastatic non-small carcinoma lung. Neuroendocrine variety is a type of lung cancer often has got similar features like small cell lung cancer. It is difficult to comment on life expectancy. Chemotherapy is the sole modality of treatment at this stage. You should better consult an oncologist.
