Tandy - I don't know where you are situated?  If you are interested in reading the background to use of Vit C for cancer go to www.iconmag.co.uk/page.php?n=777  - it's a site run by Cancer Active in the UK - they publish books and a monthly magazine I get also.  They do a lot to publish stuff on complementary treatments for cancer.  If the last part of the website address doesn't work go to the iconmag.co.uk bit and work your way through treatments, complementary, V in the alphabetical list etc.  See what you think.  I can't take much in the way of vit c - my bowel gets too irritated unfortunately, but I'm interested in its use.  Cheers Jenny

There is a trial going on at the University of KS Medical Center where high dose IV vitamin C is being given to patients with ovarian cancer.  I did some investigation earlier this year and was told by the one of the researcher's that the testing was still inconclusive but was ongoing so it's possible that this treatment may hold some promise.
