Dear Doctor if allow me i will suggest some homeopathic approach for Adeno carcinoma with loss of weight.
Homeopathy can be used as supportive treatment.
To prevent further complications and pain and for palliation Homeopathhy can help the patient.
According to your report there is no evidence of metastasis, it is better to try Homeopathy.
If pain present Calcaria.Carb 30 helps to reduce pain.
Ferrum.Phos also helps to produce blood cells to reduce anemia.
For alternate constipation and diarrhea Nux vom 30 helpful.
Dear doctor respond me if you like to fallow the Homeopathic type of treatment.
