12:30 pm
that's it for this week's show. thanks to my panel and all who watched. i'm paul gigot. hope to see you next week. i'm eric shawn. time for "sunday housecall." >> and i'm julie time for "sunday house call." >> joining us is dr. david ramadi and chief of robotic surgery and dr. siegel. also author of "unlucking the excite code of sickness and health." we've been talking about maryland governor mayor hogan, set for four days of chemo.
12:31 pm
he acknowledges he has stage 3 nonhodgkin's. stage 3, he's still a treatable patient. >> yes. >> tell us how they plan on treating him? >> it's a fairly aggressive cancer. when you talk about lymphoma which is cancer of the limn nym nodes, stage three as we mentioned is very key and important inflammation. that's fairly aggressive. it means it's on both sides of the diaphragm. the way they biopsy it is someone will present with a big lymph note. they may haveweight loss, night sweats or fever. they biopsy. . find it's limb foe machlt most of the treatment is chemotherapy. they may treat him with some
12:32 pm
inmun oh therapy. but when you look at the five year survival usually for stage one is about 80%. so there's absolutely, you know, hope and we don't know what the cause is, julie. a lot of times it could be genetics, could be environmental. e >> he said he felt it while he was sjale. it was a huge lump. why wouldn't you recognize that before you got to that point. when we shave, how should we know? >> most people feel it before it got to that stage. people all the time are coming to me saying hey i found this little lump here, what is this. the answer is if it's freely moving and it's tiny and rubbery and not hard chances are it's
12:33 pm
not hard. if it gets hard and matted and are you have trouble moving it that's something to worry about. as he mentioned he's stage 3. you've got to look for lymph nodes in your groin, under your arms, on your was an area wher an infection. that can be normal. row tuxen is an anti-body. it targets a protein on the cell. lymphoma is a lymph node. it's an anti-body that targets for ke de strukz and then you
12:34 pm
put on the chemo on top of it. we've helped fight this disease. >> i think what's important is also what you just mentioned. when you have an isolated lymph node that pops right there, you want to pay attention to it. think of it as a sewer system. when you have a day full of rain, all of it goes in the sewer system. that's exactly what the lymph node system does. you have this lymphatics that if you have an infection, you're going to have swollen lymph nodes. if you have cancer, sometimes it can me as the ta size. you can have prostate or bladder cancer that can prostate or me as the ta size. the prognosis depends on how he responds to chemotherapy. >> this does react well to
12:35 pm
chemotherapy, even at a stage 3. dr. siegel, you mentioned feeling lymph nodes in your neck and groin. is there anything else you should be aware of? >> you look for lymph node swellings and fatigue. i'm going to give you some symptoms. if you have them, go to the doctor. night sweats, fevers at night. weight loss and profound fati e fatigue. we might see you're anemic and the lymph nodes can be floating around and not be painful. it's either/or. the key is they're hard, very firm and not moving. >> especially if you lose weight without trying, that's a huge red flag. that's another one that comes up all the time.
12:36 pm
>> i get that all the time, absolutely. lipo mas are fat cysts and they're squishy. come to the doctor and let the doctor tell you. but if it's very hard, it's more likely like a lymphoma. >> you see a lot of times your white count might be completely out of control, but once they feel that lump and to distinguish it is difficult but they would biopsy and a lot of times, eric, they may get a biopsy of bone mary rrow becaus that's always related. that's one of the rbs that this mono clowe mall anti-body reacts very well. >> is there any kind of screening? you talk so much about prostate
12:37 pm
screening. there are all different types of screening to catch this? it's scary stuff. >> it's interesting when you ask this. when it comes. then you don't see anything until 55, 60. with this nonkinhonch kins, it s older. >> you want to go to your doctor and have it checked. >> i want to state the obvious, if it's getter bigger, get it seen. scan yourself. david has started this is a mehdi challenge which is to get it. >> that's a very good point that mark is bringing up. ignore it. as julie mentioned, you catch them early. cure is way up there.
12:38 pm
>> certainly our thoughts and our prayers are with the governors that he has full recovery and he caught it in time. it could be a lot worse. scientists say it could be what we've got inside our gut. trillions of microscopic bacteria live in there. do you believe that? the doctors tell us what we can do. we'll be right back. oh no. who are you? daddy, this is blair, he booked this room with priceline express deals and saved a ton. i got everything i wanted..... i always do. he seemed nice.
12:39 pm
