Hello Dan,
Thanks for your reply and your question.
I'm not an expert; just a Canadian being here with cancer patients, during
their journey.
I searched the internet for "stomach cancer " and specialists" and quite a few
hospitals showed up.
What was on their "menus" of treatments seemed standard fare.

I was just reading that a Canadian Dr. Natalie Coburn of Princess Margaret
Hospital in Toronto used a federal cancer database for her study.  Five-year
survival was more than twice as high in Hawaii than in Utah, where surgery was
poorest. Because Hawaii removes more lymph nodes.

Late maybe for you, but I'd wonder what other info she's collected about
stomach cancer, if she's still there.

The highest incidences of oesophageal and gastric cancer are in Japan, South
America, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Vietnam and Thailand are mentioned
as well elsewhere. I'm not suggesting you fly to Hawaii.  I think I'd want to
go for a mulit-disciplinary consult at a hospital where a specialist of
Japanese or Hawaiian descent was taking a special interest in stomach cancer
and has his (or her) pulse on what is being done (stage per stage, grade per
grade) in other countries. And the numbers of successes (improvements in
survival) vs (and falures) for each.

This is one that caught my eye, a few years back

not sure if Yang's still at cpmcnet.columbia.edu

Here's another with names at UMass
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15567866
There's a Yang there, as well as 2 other Asian names and email address.
I don't know if the email is valid.

I would call the hospital and ask how to arrange for a consult and send a
followup package with details of my health history (and co-morbidties),
treatments already tried, some clinical trials, (see below) and ask them to do
the (above-mentioned) research first and be ready to answer my questtions and
with several potential plans of action which may include more surgery - next
stop for your cancer may be bone or liver (or both).

One Time Injection of Bacteria to Treat Solid Tumors That Have Not Responded to
Standard Therapy
For the ones that are Phase I, I'd want to know if there's Phase II's anywhere.

And why one was suspended.

There's probably lots more clinical trials for stomach cancer, but I picked
some of these because a head and neck cancer patient strongly believes in
something called Coley's toxins, which I believe is or was bacteria, so why not
try these under a controlled and safer environment, if the hospital is willing,
but would want to know if it's followed by chemo  Or if the afore-said protocol
could be followed.

He went away, angry at me; I asked him to stop posting long unproven therapies,
but shortly after, I noticed they were working with same or similar in clinical
trials.
So here's his post, if you want to print it up for when discusssing with a team
of doctors, or if there's a hospital name that is more attractive to you.

There's almost 300 subscribers to the ACOR mail list for stomach cancer.
You could ask there as well. As to who is the longest survivor (or was) - stage
per stage, grade per grade, type per type) and what protocols he or she
followed.  They may have better ideas, suggestions than I do.

Sorry, this post is so long.
Please keep in touch and let us know what you plan and how you're doing, as
able.
