Steve, Delighted to hear from you. So happy you are still in this fight. I too am on Keytruda since mid 2018 as you indicate injections every 3 weeks. My MRI's have consistantly indicated tumor unchanged so not much regression going on. I have the itching rash and gastrointestinal upset. I have been searching for ways to boost my immune system. The Keytruda allows the immune system to see the cancer but does...
Mikal, I have to agree with much of what you say especially the "keep people sick industry" and the fact that "the rich people control our government and every treatment option we can get through conventional medicine". No sure about alkaline water effectiveness. I was drinking alkaline water for quite some time a few years back (moving into my 8th cancer journey year) but don't know if it worked. My waking A...
ToddlerFather, I have actually asked some of my non cancer friends to consider checking their AM wakeing urine PH but without much success to see where normal people urine PH might be because I agree it is not specific and can be high or low having nothing to do with the cancer. I wrote to a place called "The Cancer Alternative Foundation" about PH monitoring and they responded with the following email - sorr...
ToddlerFather, Interesting aticle. I don't agree with most of it - in particual that big pharma does not suppress natural treatments. Goverment suppression on cannabis for example is clear as it reamains a schedule 1 drug which means it has no medical benifit while the government itself has a medical patent out on marijiuana. My feeling is the only reason it hasn't been removed from schedule 1 is due to the heavy m...
I am a head and neck cancer patient that gets an MRI every 3 months. I googled "gadolinium" which is the heavy metal contrast dye they inject for an MRI and I found a study showed that gadolinium accumulates in the brain and does not leave the body. Chuck Noris is suing for millions as his wife was on periodic MRI's with contrast and is now experiencing brain issues. I do not get the contrast with my MRI's fo...
Hello Malik, So sorry to hear about your grandmother. My brother was diagnosed with colon cancer. He was bleeding so they talked him into having a colostomy bag operation, supposedly temorarily, to stop using his colon to help stop the bleeding but the cancer quickly spread to the surgey area and that killed him. Surgery causes inflammation. Cancer thrives in inflammed evnvironments. Can you tell me why...
I have read cancer patients have low PH due to the acidic burden tumors put on the body due to the constat ozzing of lactic acid into the tumor microenvironment which then gets into the blood. In the book "Never Fear Cancer Again" by Raymond Francis he indicates the following about urine PH ranges: Below 6.0 - dangerous range 6.0 to 6.5 - unhealthy range 6.5 to 7.5 - healthy range Above 7.5 - dangero...
buburrows, I like your approach. Currently I have pretty much the same diet as when I was on a strict ketogenic diet. I have tea in the morning (mixture of black and white tea) loaded with butter or coconut oil or MCT oil for saturated fats and avacodo or olive or algae oil for monounstaturated fats along with things like fiber, minerals, etc. Lots of fats in the AM so I don't get hungry until my eating window whi...
Byburrows, So happy to talk to another diet adventurer for truely to those who have done it the ketogenic diet is an adventure. Yes - I found that my glucose began to rise when I was on the ketogenic diet for a long period of time. Then learned about the dawn phenomenon where constantly low insulin may lead to raised cortisol levels whcih can raise glucose levels in the blood. Began to think, well all my cells are ...
Peter, i checked the article and did some research. Sounds interesting but there is the sourcing problem and really not much clinical research showing it actually works. Of course that is always a problem with any natural substance that drug companies can't make a fortune on so nothing natural ever gets too far through the drug company controlled FDA. I think we need a government agency similar to the FDA but for n...
