About Dr Khalid Munir
Expertise
I can answer questions about the correct guideline for treatment of a certain type of cancer to achieve good results. I can analyse signs and symptoms to identify cancer. I can recommend preventive measures to avoid getting this disease. I can tell about many good treatment methods which have been developed recently through cancer research.

Experience
I have been working as a Oncologist with ICT New Delhi since the last two eras. I have experience of treating cancer patients through a variety of methods. My patients have been treated with radiation therapy, chemotherapy and surgery. I am also trained in Immunotherapy of cancer which is a recognized treatment method as per the guidelines of the American Cancer Society (ww.cancer.org). It is being given at only few places in the world. Immunotherapy works by enhancing the body's own defence mechanism hundreds of times.

Oncology (General Cancer) - Breast Cancer


Expert: Dr Khalid Munir - 6/3/2009

Question
My sister  was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer 1.5cm lump. She had a lumpectomy, 4 rounds of AC and 12 weekly doses of Taxol which she finished up in April of this year. She recently went for a PET Scan and two 6mm nodes were identified. One behind the pectoral muscle (exactly where the oringal cancer was) and one axillary node. There was no hypermetabolism. Do you think this is metastatic breast cancer or could it be something else. They want to do a repeat PET in 6 months. Obviously we are very concerned. Is it possible to have a recurrence so soon after chemo has finished. Thanks for your help.

Answer
yes it is possible. for stopping recurrence and to eradicate cancer at a early stage, we should give dendritic cell therapy. it is given at som place in India and may places in US. I want to see the report. send it scanned at medlifeasia@gmail.com you can also type and send.
