Medical News in the Media
about cancer care & research


On the one hand, there is dead silence in the media about safe and effective integrative treatments that could save the lives of millions of cancer patients. On the other hand, whenever a group of "politically correct" researchers are busily spending their grant money on futuristic projects, the media is there to report faithfully on their theories and experiments.

Although some of the information on this web site is brand new, all are rooted in the work of scientists like Nobel-prize winner Otto Warburg, Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, and Linus Pauling, among many others. It is one of the major characteristics of the groups that control the allopathic medical establishment to dismiss or ignore the groundbreaking work of these intellectual giants.

I wanted to draw a parallel between the obscenely expensive "research" carried out by well-positioned "scientists", and the work of courageous and honest practitioners, quietly curing cancer patients of "incurable" conditions.

Phoney cancer research is one of the most lucrative and never-ending occupations in the allopathic establishment. It is so profitable, and it became such a beloved tradition among our esteemed medical leaders, that it seems almost anti-American to speak out against it.

Here is a tutorial to prepare the cancer patient for chemotherapy. What is not mentioned anywhere in the tutorial is that chemotherapy is an obsolete, profit-driven nightmare that should have been banned a long time ago. There are a number of more effective, although much less profitable treatments available, that are perfectly safe and have no side effects.

The focus of ChemoReady is on helping to prepare you for chemotherapy. Other resources provide more comprehensive information on side effects, including: www.cancer.gov, www.oncolink.upenn.edu and www.cancer.ca. All resource links provided in this tutorial will be included in your ChemoReady Plan for easy reference.

Please tell me more about these possible physical side effects:

Please tell me more about these possible physical side effects:

Low white blood cell count (neutropenia)
Low red blood cell count (anemia)
Hair loss (alopecia)
Nausea and/or vomiting
Diarrhea
Mouth sores (mucositis)
Fatigue
Sexual dysfunction
Lowered platelet count (thrombocytopenia)
Skin effects
Neuropathy

Neutropenia

Chemotherapy can affect the bone marrow, where all blood cells are produced. If your white blood cell count drops to a certain level, you may develop neutropenia. Neutropenia is one of the most serious common side effects of chemotherapy because:

  • If left untreated, it may lead to fever and life-threatening infection.
  • It may cause chemotherapy dose delays or reductions.

Your cancer team will monitor your white blood cells during chemotherapy.

Your risk for developing neutropenia depends on certain factors such as your age, type of chemotherapy and whether or not you've had neutropenia before.

Hair loss

Whether or not you lose your hair and how much you lose will depend on your chemotherapy treatment. Hair generally starts to fall out within 7 to 21 days of starting certain types of chemotherapy.

What can you do if you lose your hair?

Hair loss can have a strong psychological impact. It may be comforting to know that it grows back one to two months after treatment ends, often thicker than before. You can consider wigs, scarves, hats or a shorter hairstyle – do whatever feels most comfortable.

Mouth sores

Mouth sores are common and usually occur several days after you start chemotherapy.

What can you do to help prevent mouth sores?

Before starting chemotherapy, have a dental check-up and cleaning. After you start chemotherapy, begin rinsing your mouth with alcohol-free mouthwashes, use soft toothbrushes and eat soft foods. If you develop mouth sores, talk to your cancer team about treatment options.

I used the word, nightmare.
Was it an exaggeration?

Genetic Factor Predicts Prognosis In Brain Tumor Patients

Science Daily PLoS ONE has just published a study which defines a gene locus on chromosome 1 that predicts prognosis of brain tumor patients and may even set the basis for the development of more efficient drugs to combat brain cancer. Clinical and basic researchers from the University Hospital Basel, Switzerland, the Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, Germany, and the Emory University Atlanta, USA have defined the Notch2 gene as candidate gene for brain tumor development. The study was coordinated by Adrian Merlo, neurosurgeon at the University Hospital Basel.

There are several treatment that are able to eliminate brain tumors safely and rapidly. One of them is used on a daily basis in a cancer clinic in the USA with great success. Some of the procedures were published in peer reviewed medical journals. Don't these scientists read the medical literature?

Breast cancer is already curable with safe, effective and non-patentable treatments, although nobody will get rich from them.

Hair test may reveal breast cancer

June 27, 2007 - 7:44AM
An Australian company is on the brink of launching a world-first test that can detect breast cancer by close examination of a patient's hair.

The test is based on an Australian university discovery that breast cancer changes the molecular structure of hair, and the difference can be picked up using sophisticated X-ray technology.

The company, Fermiscan, is running a trial of 2,000 women that compares the hair test to a mammogram and said it should be finished within the next two months.

Breast cancer can be detected with a gentle, benign and FDA approved test years before it becomes clinically observable. The test is widely available in the USA and elsewhere, but it is never mentioned by oncologists and in the media. By the way, comparing the hair test to a mammogram? Here is some useful information about mammography. Perhaps the company, Fermiscan, should read it.
