Integrative Cancer Therapy Care
2
Integrative Medicine

• A total approach to medical care combining
  standard medicine with complementary and
  alternative practices that have been shown to be
  safe and effective. They treat the patient's
  mind, body, and spirit.

Qualified Doctors

• Our qualified team of physicians treat cancer
  very differently from how "conventional" cancer
  therapy is administered especially when the odds
  support a far more favorable long-term survival
  rate for the patient.

4
Integral Medicine

• Complementary, alternative and where indicated
  conventional standard practice is used for
  medical treatments. One example is using a
  special diet to treat cancer instead of
  anticancer drugs that are prescribed by an
  oncologist.

What is Metastatic Liver Cancer?

• Liver metastasis occurs when cancerous tumor
  cells spread to the liver from another part of
  the body.

6

• These tumor cells often appear shortly after the
  primary tumor develops, or months or years later.
  Most liver metastases start as cancers in colon
  or rectum.

7

• Nearly 70 of patients with colorectal cancer
  develop liver metastases. This happens in part
  because blood from intestines is connected
  directly to liver through the portal vein.

8

• Although much less common, liver metastases can
  start from breast, esophagus, stomach, pancreas,
  lung, kidney or skin cancer.

9

• The progression of metastatic liver is quite
  severe and abrupt, so treatment must commence as
  soon as possible after first diagnosed, based on
  the following symptoms.

10

• Jaundice

Enlarged liver will block flow of bile, causing
seepage into bloodstream, resulting in dark
urine, pale stools and itchy skin.
11

• Delirium

It affects sleep patterns, with difficulty
concentrating, with possible amnesia leading to
possible coma.
12

• Severe Abdominal Pain

Tumor cells begin to expand throughout
surrounding area destroying healthy tissue. This
leads to massive organ damage. Patient will have
a very swollen abdomen, with incredibly hardened
and enlarged liver resulting in severe pain.
Select pain killer is usually prescribed.
13

• Ascites

Fluid will begin to build inside the abdomen
area. Ascites is excess fluid with floating
cancer cells with current standard of care
requiring draining fluid through the abdomen wall.
14
Systemic Organ Malfunctions

• Kidney begins to fail, causing weight gain,
  swelling and less urine output.
• Lungs fail, making it more complicated and
  difficult to breath. Lungs begin to fill with
  fluid.
• Confusion from the toxicity affects the brain,
  causing mood swings, altered decision-making,
  drowsiness, sluggish speech.
• Overall, liver failure causes nausea, vomiting,
  fatigue, loss of appetite, and easy bleeding.
