Patient with Gist Tumor Describes Treatment in Baltimore, MD

Teresa describes the gift of hope (and success!) that she received from treatment with Dr. Mark Fraiman.
Teresa had a rare form of cancer, causing 2 hospitals to turn her away. Dr. Mark Fraiman was able to successfully go in and successfully remove the Gist Tumor.
While other doctors were ready to give her a short-term life expectancy, Dr. Fraiman was able to give Teresa the opportunity to continue to be there for her family.

You are not alone, I’m 5 years out from GIST. We are rare, but if found early we can survive and thrive. Your kids are blessed to have you, and I am blessed to hear your story. Thanks.

Very heart touching story. I have one doubt if one start taking Gleevec then he or she may not get tumour again, but if you see the side effect of the medicine last longing you may develop diabetes, lung disease, heart disease, and many more so I am a bit sceptical about the tradeoff of this medicine. please advise.

[@amandakurtz7732]

Ved Shukla hey tell me more!!! Look time is important!!!!! Can you inbox me????

[@hadimahamidh]

Bed…..have you had any experience about the side effect. I am now in the hospital to remove GIST tumor on the cardia, DR. told me I will be taking medication after surgery for the next 3 years. I am always skeptical of most drugs treatment. Your comments here more skeptical.
