Purely alternative therapy success stories?

I noticed the cst I'd had since 1964had risen and hardened in march of 2010. not quite 10y ears but I've had no surgery or any alopathic treatments. no meat for decades and no dairy for a few years. can no longer cook, am nearly eighty and live alone, and the tumor is growning and has grown from the beginning, so as I can't cook I eat prepared amy's vegan organic bowls, have a lot of soy though. also still use a couple of h omeopathic pellets a naturopath gave he online in 2011, no longer do the castor oil packs or the green tea she also gave me though

Hi Tom1981. I do not know of anyone having been conventionally diagnosed and then having survived feeling good/comfortable for that long without any conventional treatment. But I do not get out much, and my world is rather small.

I am a member of another breast cancer support group on the Internet, and I sometimes look in on some discussions at another one too. Once in a long while a newly diagnosed young woman will join, already decided and determined to cure herself of breast cancer with no conventional treatment whatsoever. They typically participate for no more than a couple of days on just their own introductory discussion threads, then they never come back. They are not withdrawing from abuse on those websites -- they are treated with respect and caring, and they are assured of other members' support. I think they do not come back because the other members simply cannot give them the answers they seek -- they have some alternative solutions in mind, and they want to be informed of more alternative solutions.

This is not what you were asking for, but it might be of interest anyway. See, in particular, paragraphs 4 and 5, and also the discussion section further down and numbered 5, in this literature review article here__

Here is the older published study to which that article links in its paragraph 5__

the article quoted only uses chemotherapy as a systemic treatment, whereas hormone therapy is also systemic. I refused chemotherapy and have accepted the additional 8% risk as I had a much higher risk of life affecting side effects such as losing all kidney function. I use alternative treatments, make sure I exercise as that is shown to be the best way to avoid recurrence, I am almost five years from diagnosis. If the research had stated which CAM treatments were studied this would be more worthwhile as a decision aid. There are unprven treatments but also many with good research result

pipers_dream, I believe, has gone a purely alternative path, with no surgery. You may want to check out some of her posts. You can search for them through her username

Glad to hear you're doing well, pipers. And yes, sometimes people forget that healing has its emotional side as well.

There are no guarantees for any of us, pipers_dream. Longtermsurvivor always said that there's a difference between curing and healing. Curing is nice, but healing is the best.
