I mean it changes Every Year as to what's the best treatment, but at the time what I was really doing was grasping at straws because I was trying to find anything that had an effect on the tumor.
Imagine being told you have a terminal brain tumor and then living to tell the tale decades later. That’s exactly what Dr. Ben Williams did, and in this episode of 'Weekly Infusion', he shares his extraordinary story with Dr. Drew Pinsky and Dr. Bruce Heischober. Diagnosed in 1995 with glioblastoma multiforme, a type of brain cancer that's usually fatal, Dr. Williams decided to go beyond standard treatment.
He crafted his own regimen, which played a significant role in his survival for over two decades. Dr. Williams opens up about his unconventional approach, the clinical trials he participated in, and the criticisms he faced along the way. The conversation doesn’t stop there; it also touches on propranolol and other treatments for brain cancer, shedding light on the importance of common sense and qualitative analysis in tackling this disease.
If you're curious about innovative cancer treatments or looking for a dose of inspiration, this episode is a must-listen.
