Stage 3 Biliary Cancer

Stage Three Biliary Duct Cancer
In 2005 I was diagnosed with Stage Three Biliary Duct Cancer and endured surgery to remove a tumor followed by months of chemo and radiation therapy. My symptoms included a poor appetite and lost a total of 70 lbs.

I began acupuncture in August of 2006. I started to feel better; less nauseous, more energetic. I began to slowly gain weight and continue to feel terrific and visit Dr. Tad at the Clinic regularly. I exercised regularly for over 10 years and was in great shape before my cancer diagnosis. I suffered a heart attack in 1998 that inspired a healthy lifestyle which befitted Dr. Tad's healthcare regime. I benefited from good diet and exercise during my extensive surgery and recovery. I began taking the Chinese herbs and I continue to feel better, stronger, and more energetic.

I wish that more doctors would suggest acupuncture to patients. I feel it would have been beneficial to me during my cancer treatment.
