Hello and thanks for your post

I'm sorry to read about your situation and can appreciate you are going through a lot and hope you have plenty of support.

People vary in the side effects they experience. It is important to let your chemotherapy department or GP know how you are feeling. They can assess you and prescribe you some medications to help manage your symptoms.

You might find your hospital has a Macmillan drop-in or a well-being centre where you can get support. Maggie's provides a variety of support for people affected by cancer. The cancer care map also lists local support services.

If you were looking for support in the way of counselling, Macmillan Cancer Support along with Bupa offers four free counselling sessions to cancer patients.

There is no scientific evidence to show that fenbendazole (deworming tablets) work in people and tablets that are used for animals can actually be dangerous.

Some time ago there was some anti cancer data with fenbendazole, but the work was done on cells and mice in the laboratory and not in people.

There is also no scientific evidence to prove that any type of alternative therapy can help to control or cure a cancer. Some alternative therapies might also be unsafe and cause harmful side effects. 

We would always encourage people to talk to their cancer doctor, GP, or specialist nurse if they are considering using any complementary or alternative therapies. Some treatments may interact with current medications.

I hope this is of some use. Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Best wishes,

Celene
