 Hello and thanks for posting. The first approach to treatment of KS is to be on effective HIV medications-- as you are. For many individuals, this alone will cause regression of the tumors. While I'm not expert in oncology, there is a range of treatment options- best summarized in this review from the National Cancer Institute. I hope that helps and keep us informed of your health decisions. BY | ||||||||
