yes, it was called gold seeding,

Posted By: linda on 2008-07-19
In Reply to: Gold implant therapy? - m schweikl

Subject: yes, it was called gold seeding,

done in the 1960's or so. My grandfather was told he would never have to worry about it coming back. By the time it did, his Dr had died and the CA had spread throughout his body. Because of what the Dr had told him, he never thought that was the problem. Of course, he did live to 88, but he was still working as a barber and we never wanted either one of them to die, ever. Sorry, I went on way past your question.

Subject: Med called Tensol?

Anyone heard of this? Cannot locate in my references. Went online and researched; only found TenSal (saline) and Tensol (a site in Malta). Given context, TenSal is not a candidate IMO.

Context: However, toward the end of the hospitalization, she was barely able to take any medication or liquid, and we discontinued all oral medications. We did continue the patient on suspension of Roxanol and Ativan and ---TENSOL--- to keep her as comfortable as possible. In fact, she was comfortable throughout her hospice stay.
