Chemotherapy combined with Chinese medicine to reduce uterine fibroid metastasis

Ms. Zhang, 48, is a private company owner. She was busy with work and neglected her health. In March 2008, she was diagnosed with uterine fibroids and severe bleeding. She underwent a subtotal hysterectomy. The postoperative pathology report showed "uterine stromal sarcoma, highly malignant". She underwent another operation in May to perform abdominal omentum and pelvic, ovarian, and uterine residual cavity clearance. After the operation, she underwent EPI/PDD×3 cycles of chemotherapy and abdominal radiotherapy with a dose of 60Gy. No other treatment was given after the treatment.

In August 2010, due to back pain, a CT scan at the hospital confirmed multiple metastases in both lungs. In the following year, Ms. Zhang underwent high-dose chemotherapy, using DTIC/ifosfamide/doxorubicin, etc. Later, after switching to DTIC/ifosfamide chemotherapy, the lesions shrank with each cycle. After 6 times, the small lesions disappeared, and then she began to cooperate with Chinese medicine for auxiliary treatment.

Chinese medicine prescription during chemotherapy:

Prescription: Raw Astragalus, Radix Pseudostellariae, Millettia reticulatae, Fructus Ligustri Lucidi, Fructus Lycii, Fructus Corni, Placenta, Peel of Tangerine Peel, Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, Jiao Sanxian, Gizzard of Chicken, Fructus Amomi.

Ms. Zhang has been using Chinese medicine to consolidate her treatment. No new lesions have been found in multiple systemic examinations. Her spirits and appetite are good, and her quality of life has been greatly improved.
