Wow, did not know this part! Is this common knowledge? If so, how is "a while" defined? How do we know which ones to just ignore?
- bluGill 6y agoI don't know. I have a friend who has almost no bone in his knee area, something that was only discovered when he broke is leg. The only explanation for that is a cancer the grew for a while then died out. I don't know how common this is, just that I know of one case where it is believed to happen. There are other cases of cancer going into remission after doctors gave up on any treatment working.
