Hello Doctor,
I’m seeking a second opinion regarding my mother’s latest whole-spine MRI done on 1st December 2025. Her cancer reoccurred in the bones with metastasis (Stage 4) in 2022, after which she underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and has been on monthly immunotherapy (Trastuzumab) since then till today.
MRI Findings (1st Dec 2025)
Interval progression of vertebral metastatic lesions
New metastatic lesions at D6 and L1
Clumping of cauda equina roots at L1–L2
Worsening D7 vertebral compression
Nerve root narrowing at L4–L5 and L5–S1
Clinical symptoms:
Numbness below the knee
Persistent pain despite ongoing treatment
Could you please review the report and advise if this requires urgent intervention, additional tests, or any change in her treatment plan?
Thank you, Doctor.
Im curious about clinical trials safety are these safer option to some treatment? Particularly in oncology?

Could you provide your thoughts on Ragi foods for renal cancer patients.
I was diagnosed with carcinoma nasopharynx in the year (2013). After which I recieved chemo and radiation. Now iam OK . But due to Radiation therapy I had developed dental caries. Now after tooth infection and removing one embedded tooth root I had a biopsy done of tissue from lower jaw gum ,recommended by dental surgeon. The biopsy report suggests "overall favours leukoplakia without dysplasia" .After examination by my cancer treating doctor at Apollo Gleneagles, kolkata there are no visible white patches and he advised no treatment required. But the dental surgeon recommends Blue light treatment, to treat me, treatment protocal is monthly two sitting for 6 months to remove white patch which is not physically visible by Doc at Apollo and also local dentist,need your valuable remarks on the subject.do I need to go for any further treatment.
