Lung Cancer - What Now?

About the book

Treatment for lung cancer is like going to a casino. Some play big, some play small. A few won but many lost their hard-earned fortune.

Part One: You and your doctor

1 – No biopsy for me

2 – Chemo cannot cure lung cancer

Part Two: Treacherous Journey

3 – He died after chemo and chemo and chemo

4 – RM300,000 Medical treatment did not cure him

5 – Welcome! No cure but prolong life at S$1 Million

6 – Desperate hunt for non-existent cure

7 – Did Alimta or/and Avastin kill him?

8 – Two-billion-rupiah-chemo did not cure

Part Three: Deceptive Positive Results

9 – Meaningless drop of CEA & CA19-9 after chemo

10 – Meaningless shrinkage of tumour by Iressa…more chemo, more cancer

11 – Meaningless shrinkage of tumour by Tarceva

12 – Chemo experiments that failed and failed

There are two ways to learning. One is to read or listen to what others write or say. Read and read. Listen and listen. And you know more and more. Hopefully with this new found knowledge you learn how to avoid the treacherous path. Another way is to learn through your own experience. It is fine if you come out of it alive, but many lost their lives along the way. Their stories were left buried in their graves. The world has lost these valuable teachers.

Over the years I have the unpleasant task of listening to case after case of tragic experiences. I share with you some of these stories in this book. It is my sincere hope that their experiences become a guide for those who come after them. By writing these stories I am not asking you to forsake medical treatment. By all means, follow what your heart says.

It is our life. It is your choice.



A Russian physician, dramatist and author wrote, “The only difference between doctors and lawyers is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you too.” Take time to reflect on this statement. The stake in the “cancer casino” is high.
