My partner is a 31 year old woman. (We are a same sex couple). Cancer runs in her family. Her mother died of breast cancer when she was only 34 years old. Her mother's sister also had breast cancer after that and might probably have it again. Her mother's sister is currently 55 years old. So, what are the chances that my partner might get cancer in the future too? She will be going for a BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene test. What if she has inherited the cancer gene? If so, will it be breast cancer or any kind of cancer? She also smokes occasionally but wants to quit it. What can she do to prevent it?
My father has urdergone surgery for oral cancer in February 2026 and required no further treatment like radiation or chemo. I wanted to know if he can use Nusil ultra gel for the surgical scar now on his face( around mouth and neck). Is it safe from an oncological point of view?
She has severe, persistent pain around the chest, upper back, shoulder and arm. She describes it as a pinched nerve, pressure on a nerve, or a bursting sensation. She also has frequent fevers and recurrent night sweats, and the pain is significantly affecting her daily life.
symptoms: persistent cough, blood in cough, fevers, night chills and sweats. pain in head
Over time, she has undergone several CT scans, PET-CT scan once, blood tests, bronchoscopy and hematology investigations. The scans have repeatedly shown multiple small pulmonary 3-8mm nodules, no definite cause for the severe chest and back pain. Pulmonary embolism, pneumonia, pneumothorax, fractures and obvious bone damage were not identified.
Her leukemia and hematology investigations have largely been normal, including blood counts, hemoglobin and platelets. No clear evidence of leukemia or another blood cancer has been found. Most autoimmune, inflammatory, liver, kidney and coagulation tests were also unremarkable.

My family member has recently been diagnosed with Stage 4 stomach cancer. She has already undergone stomach surgery, during which the cancer was detected. We are currently looking for guidance on her nutrition and overall diet.
Could anyone recommend:
A good oncology dietitian (preferably someone who provides online consultations)?
What kind of diet is generally recommended for a Stage 4 stomach cancer patient after stomach surgery?
Are there any foods that should be avoided or any nutritional supplements that are commonly advised?
If there are any experienced oncologists or cancer nutrition specialists who provide consultations, I would also appreciate their recommendations.
Thank you.
