Hi Joanne,
No, it was not me that wrote the article on
doxorubicin for treating insulinoma. That was
Dr Mike Dutton up in Weare, New Hampshire.
I have not used it yet! I am waiting for "them" to
work out all "of the bugs" first. Doxorubicin is
a potent chemo drug, but it also has some
potential serious side effects (ie damage to
the heart).
The Gulf Coast Referral Center in Houston, Texas
(Dr Natalie Antinoff and I think it is Dr Kevin Hahn)
is working with streptozocin with some good results
too. Chemotherapy may become the treatment of
choice in the near future, but Drs. Dutton and Antinoff
are the "pioneers" in that research.
