I Did It...No Further Conventional Treatment
Yesterday was the day I told my MO that I'm not doing anything more. He was not mad but "saddened." He tried to convince me for about an hour. He still thinks he can "chip away" at me with the Tamoxifen. He will be monitoring me every couple of months. I am his first breast cancer patient to turn down everything. It was…

Thoughts on why natural health is so vilified
It almost feels as though most doctors are struggling to keep hold of methods they know to be the only way, and are increasingly frustrated with societies push to find answers that don't involve such toxic and deadly treatments. Like people who still think letting a baby cry it out and the methods of dr spock are correct.…

Chemotherapy is NOT healing cancer
Here is a quote from Harvard University's Center for Ethics (http://ethics.harvard.edu/blog/new-prescription-dr...) Few people know that new prescription drugs have a 1 in 5 chance of causing serious reactions after they have been approved. That is why expert physicians recommend not taking new drugs for at least five…

Why Im Not Doing Chemo
I respect everyone's choices. Some choose only conventional treatment, other chooses both, and the minority choose alternative only. I like to think I am somewhere in the middle, although closer to the alternative approach. For those who insist I am out of my mind for refusing chemo, I'm posting this controversy topic so…

Has anyone quit chemo in the middle of treatment?
I have done 4 AC and now 2 of 12 Taxol treatments. I have to miss this week because I have strep and they are being careful. This "break" makes me just want to quit and move on with my life and deal with this myself. When I was diagnosed, all of my tests and scans came back clean except for the huge tumor in my left…

Anyone else out there choosing 100% Alternative?

I tried to find you more than a year ago and left these forums discouraged because I could not find anyone following a similar path. I connected with…

Scary BC tumor removal photos
These photos are not for the squeamish. Have you ever seen, or heard of, such a thing in your life? The patient is supposed to have Stage IV BC. I think I would have died from the pain going through such a procedure. The photos look absolutely real, so I doubt this is a scam. Has anybody tried black or red salve for…

insulin Potentiating Therapy:
http://www.youtube.com/v/eH0kA6Biflg&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam This therapy of using insulin to make the BC active just prior to chemo, which could reduce the amount of chemo necessary up to 90% sounded very interesting. This is not a new idea. Has anyone ever heard of it? If this…
