Many patients today are opting for alternative medical treatments for cancer. With cancer drugs out of reach for many (often costing up to $5,000 or more a month) patients are turning to stem cell research,  and lesser known but often effective methods of treating symptoms and side effects of traditional radiation and chemotherapy, including chelation, ozone therapy, Iscadore and Laetrile, both of which have shown promising results of killing cancer cells while saving healthy ones.

Dr. Francisco Soto and his facility at Advanced Medical Group in Juarez, Mexico, continue to seek advances combining alternative therapies and conventional medicine to provide clinically effective treatments for cancer patients. Dr. Soto treats patients with multiple approaches that take into consideration heart, body and soul, rather than merely focusing on a specific condition, thereby building a true and effective partnership between physician and patient throughout the treatment process.

EmCell, a stem cell research and treatment facility in Ukraine, treats a variety of cancers and cancer symptoms with embryonic or fetal stem cell transplants. Bone cancer, cervical cancer, prostate cancer and breast cancer are among the most common cancers diagnosed today, and a variety of cancer treatment centers are offering focused cancer specialist options for many. Ayurveda cancer therapy, skin cancer treatment and other forms of cancer such as lung cancer, kidney cancer and pancreatic cancer need individualized attention when it comes to treatment plans.

Finding the right cancer treatment center or cancer specialist (oncologist) for individuals may require international treatment centers. Affordable cancer treatment is vital to life. Borderless medical care provides more options for cancer patients around the globe.

The National Cancer Institute has determined that the four most common forms of cancers today are prostate, lung, breast and colorectal, though cases of melanoma skin cancer is on the rise for women, while testicular cancer is on the rise for men. Brain and bladder cancers are also on the rise, as are cancers of the kidney and thyroid.

 

Cancer treatments vary according to the stage the cancer is discovered, as well as location and overall health of the patient. Cancer staging is typically defined as Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3 and Stage 4, ranging from early and localized to those that have spread throughout the body.

 

Common cancer treatments include chemotherapy, radiation, surgery and biological or hormone therapy; every one of them is extremely expensive. According to the National Cancer Institute however, early detection is vital in more positive prognosis and treatment of cancers through a variety of methods.

 

Cost of cancer drugs such as Avastin in the U.S. may reach over $100,000 a year for some patients, often making them choose between life and financial security for their families. Even patients who have insurance often find that they can’t afford them, averaging about $50,000 a year. Some drugs for cancer patients cost an average of $800 a month, leaving little left over for living expenses.

 

Facilities around the globe may help cancer patients receive effective surgeries and therapies to treat cancer. Some of the best breast cancer treatment in Thailand or affordable cancer treatment in India in facilities such as Artemis Hospital offers international patients hope. Cancer treatment in Jordan, such as the Jordan Hospital, offer effective and state of the art procedures and techniques in cancer treatment.

Cancer can strike any gender or age group. Depending on the type of cancer, various treatments may be initiated in an effort to eradicate or kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery are the most common types of treatments that battle multiple forms of cancer.

Drugs for treatment of cancer – any type of cancer such as breast cancer, colon cancer, kidney or stomach cancer, as well as lung cancer treatment or fast-acting cancers like stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer and brain cancer are so expensive that many people choose to die rather than eradicate life savings and retirement plans. Most health insurance plans have a $1 million lifetime maximum on payouts, and yet cancer treatments may cost an individual in the U.S. more than $300,000 a year!

Look at the cost of many common drugs prescribed to help treatment for cancer:

3 drugs – Herceptin, Avastin and Zometa, for one month can run over $20,000 - that breaks down to roughly $6,254.95 for ONE dose of Herceptin and $9,496.47 for ONE dose of Avastin. That doesn’t even include the treatments to inject the drugs.

According to an article run in USA Today, the average monthly cost of Herceptin is about $3,000 a month. Avastin costs an average of $4,400 a month. Of course, it depends on what type of cancer being treated. Larger doses will cost more, or less.

Cancer treatment centers in foreign destinations like Mexico, India, Thailand, Singapore, India, Jordan and Turkey are looking better and better for Americans faced with such outrageous cancer treatment costs.

Depending on the type of cancer discovered, physicians will determine which options or treatments are best in every situation. In some cases, a patient may have a choice of procedures or treatments, while other times, they will not. Certain factors will determine which treatment will provide optimal results, including what type of cancer, what organs or tissues are affected, as well as what stage the cancer is in. The earlier the stage of cancer development, the better for treatment prognosis. Overall health and age may also factor in to treatment plans.

Common Cancer Treatments

· Chemotherapy

· Radiation

· Surgery

· Biological or hormone therapy

One individual undergoing cancer treatment utilizing a drug called Cytoxan, and chemotherapy for cancer treatment for his cancer costs him roughly $2,000 for each session he must undergo. His medical bills amount to roughly $300,000 a year. The astronomical costs of treating liver cancer or kidney cancer, or stomach cancer or breast cancer (the list goes on) can devastate financial stability in a matter of weeks.

However, cancer treatment centers in foreign destinations may offer hope for thousands facing such a dilemma. Cancer treatment centers located in Thailand, Singapore, India, Mexico and places in Europe such as Turkey and Jordan, offer cancer treatment for many types of cancer, including bone and pancreatic cancer, colon cancer as well as alternative cancer treatment options.

No one should ever have to choose between cancer treatment and financial ruin or the tragic results on not being able to afford such treatment. Check out cancer treatment abroad and do what you can to help yourself or a loved one utilize better options.
