Truth about Cancer ??

I have listened, although it is quite a while ago. Like a lot of "alternative" stuff it strings a bunch of stuff together, then draws conclusions, many of which do not actually fit the actual facts. It is kind of like, "my friend was wearing red pants, was in a car accident, and then the other day, when I was wearing red pants, I was in a car accident, and, the worst part, the police just doesn't want to recognize that red pants cause car accidents."

I am re-listening right now, and the first guy he has on, G. Edward Griffin, is, according to wiki: G. Edward Griffin (born November 7, 1931) is an American author, lecturer, and filmmaker. He is the author ofThe Creature from Jekyll Island (1994), which promotes conspiracy theories about the Federal Reserve System.^{[1][2]," and is a lifelong member of the John Birch Society.} Nuff said.

yeah I've watched the whole series..i've gone down the conventional complimented by alternative treatment route. I had chemo/rads but I also saw a naturopath during the whole time and tried to support my immune system when it hit its lowest and continue to do so now. I think it enabled me to deal with chemo pretty well and didn't just focus on me physically but mentally.

i found it pretty informative and it's quite common if you read through the alternative tx. diet, exercise etc....

i had a conversation with a young friend who is in med school. her parents are both doctors and she told me from what she knows that sometimes cancer is just bad luck. some ppl make it and some don't after tx. and when i further talked about the difference between east and west medicine, she told me it's very different school of trainings. her mom was a doctor in china (no longer practicing i think) and when a friend of hers was going through some symptoms and based on her experience, she thought its TB but none of the result showed that. but when the person went further tests and it's proven her mom was right. her mom came up with the diagnose based on her experience and had absolutely no scientific evidence.

my point is when the alt route being this popular, it's not just BS but the BS could have mixed with the true messages.

if you believe conventional, then do the conventional.

i find ppl who are advocate for conventional but pay attention to alternative and talk down to ppl who wants to do alt are the hypocrites.

Spence - i would be cautious about your prognosis, it seems very aggressive. you need a TX, be it conventional, be it alternative just not by yourself or some researches that you do on your own. Chris had the surgery then he started a healthy life style afterwards. you could reach out to him and see what he says. but you need a tx from a hospital.

I listened to this and researched the alternative/natural healing approach. I think there is a lot of truth to it, however I couldn't in my mind justify risking just using that method. I was scared since I am only 33 and had triple negative idc (very aggressive and mine was in my lymph nodes already and insanely fast growing.) Maybe I would've been fine, but I decided to do the conventional approach and use alternative methods in conjunction. To me it made sense as I believe in science and spirituality. I eat almost entirely vegan, try to eat things that are mostly alkaline, meditate, practice qi gong, etc. Among other things. I think I did extremely well with chemotherapy (side effects were bearable and I had a pathological complete response even though I only had 4 of 12 rounds of Taxol.) I feel everyone should search their feelings and see what honestly feels right. I wish I could have refused conventional treatment and been someone who could say they beat cancer naturally, but this is what felt right for me.

I just read your details and see you are writing for your sister who has 4 children and is in her 40s. Please try to find her. a kind oncologist she can trust. I am angry she has a homeopath trying to take this on, do they have a serious track record in breast cancer? She has the right to make her ow choices but she also has the right to hear the truth from good expert people and I fear she is not. The honest truth is, her prognosis is very grave - as for many of us at stage 3. She needs all the expert help she can get. This must be very hard for you.
