i found a lump on my right breast one month ago,i have atypical ductal hyperplasia cells,and have had 3 benign breast lumps removed in the past,this one is my 4th one. anyway i was due for my yearly mammogram so i went in and got it and they also wanted me to have a diagnostic ultrasound. about 3 days later my doctor calls me and says to come see her and don’t wait,so i go and see her and she examines me and see’s that i also have big swelling above my collar bone,and she tells me my results were bad. she told me i needed to be scared cause she was,she also said she is very worried, she went on to say she knows this breast lump is not an infection or a cyst. and set me up for a biopsy to confirm. i know i should have right out and asked her was she saying i got cancer but i did’nt i was too shocked i guess for her telling me to be scared. so i would like to get others input on this,,,, my question is this,,,was i practically given a cancer diagnosis? does she believe i have breast cancer? and if so how can she know for sure before a biopsy test is done?
as i stated i found a lump, and the doctor felt it also,, she just said she knows its not a cyst or infection,also the mammogram,the ultrasound came back bad,,so i was wondering can ultrasounds see cancer cells i know they can lumps but what about cancer cells can they detect those as well? also my lump is fixed in my breast, size of a dime

I’ve already got two – DNA indirect and direct analysis, and chromosome studies (karyotyping, FISH)
Is there any biochemical testing possible in determining cancer?

The White Feather—

My wife had just gotten her breast cancer diagnosis and I was going to walk up to the clinic from work for one of her many appointments she had scheduled for that day. I was pretty upset, and scared for my wife. I always think of her as answered prayers when she came into my life and I was afraid and feared the worse. So, as I was leaving work I prayed with my whole heart and soul to God, please take care of my wife and let her live, and tears were coming down my cheeks.

I told God that I did not know if he was there, mostly because I prayed that the tests would come back negative and instead it was positive. I then asked him to put a feather on the ground as a sign he was listening to my prayer. I know we are supposed to walk by faith, but faith alone was not doing it for me, I needed proof that he was listening. I then asked for a sign, I prayed for a feather so that I could pick it up and keep it as a reminder that he was listening and answering my prayers.

I took two steps and there was a white feather on the ground, tears in my eyes I picked it up. And I saw one on every block I walked up to the hospital. Needless to say, I was happy and I had not felt that way for a long time. Whenever I have fears, I have that feather in my wallet as a reminder that he is listening and that it is in his hands.

It was the perfect sign.

Thanks for your help.

But Leiberman vomitted out his mouth how much he wanted a Medicaid Buy In Plan at age 55 up until the last few days.

Now, Leiberman has crowned himself the Death Angel killing Health Care Reform and stripping down the Health Care Reform Bill to a simple mandate to buy overpriced policies from arrogant insurance policies who refuse to pay when they are needed most.

Joe, I thought it was Hannukah not Passover?,

Should I get a back-up policy NOW or will it be useless? I don’t want to bankrupt my family and want to take careful steps during this time. Any advice is appreciated.
A humble thank you to all my friends – you’ve given me encouragement and very good advice.

P.S. – we live in the Phoenix area.

If the treatment was in the form of a very profitable drug, would the media report this?
As an added note Professor Emeritus from Cornell University published a book called the "China Study" that summarized his nutritional research work over three decades. His NIS grants showed a strong correlation between animal protein consumption and cancers (breast and prostate).

If we ate a pure vegetarian (vegan) diet, we could eliminate more than 80% of the cancers in this country.

It appears that mass media in the US has pretty much ignored this result and continue to recommend a breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon.

This is really fascinating stuff and seems to offer enough hope tthat if I ever have to face cancer in the eye I would surely give it a try. If anything I could only hope this thread will build and continue to be active. Who knows this info could save a life…

Thank you for sharing your personal experiences. Stay strong!
No simple solutions??? Are you serious? Give you 1? I could start a whole new thread on simple solutions to complex issues. I think you would be surprised.

Also, making a statement that these are conspiracy threories when there are actual people out there that had cancer and then they didn’t after trying Gerson’s method. To dismiss this entirely reminds me of a time in our history I learned about in school. During this time, people believed that the Earth was flat and the Sun revolved around the Earth. Lets hope you are not making a similar mistake…

Last does this also mean that you would not try Gerson’s method if you had no other options than to die?
"Some will say that is not true and that genetics plays a huge roll, but realize that something has to turn that gene on and you are in more control of your genes than you realize in many ways."

This is so very true and makes absolute sense… I too have heard about the advances in genetics we are just starting to uncover. There is not a shadow of doubt in my mind that YOU can activate and deactivate genes. I have heard there is a lot of compelling evidence to support this and seen it in health news. The public knows little about this too. And going back to my statement about "simple solutions…" Isn’t it ironic how simple it is to activate or deactivate genes? We could have spent millions and probably have) trying to activate genes artificially when the simple solution in some cases is diet… Go figure..

I am very well aware some of these things help with treatment. I have used a couple to help, treating the side effects of therapy, mainly on a mind control, psychological basis.

However, I want to know:

The people who tout some alt med as a CURE, do you feel strongly enough about what you are advertising that you would use the exact same protocol, and that protocol only (meaning no chemo surgery or radiation, as most alt treatments advertise).

Anyone currently under going an alt treatment only to treat cancer?

I would just like to know how many people truely have that much faith in the methods they are suggesting or selling.
Weed doesnt treat the cancer, side effects only. I have used both real mj, and the synthetic thc rx marinol, both helped with the side effects.
I have actually finished treatment, and there werent many alt treatments for mine, not even ones that didnt make sense.

I am not looking for me, just trying to get some knowledge. I know all sorts of alt treatments help with side effects, provide nourishment and all that.

What I want to know, is if anyone that touts these supposed cure treatments have actually used what they advertise alone for treatment (without using chemo, surgery, or radiation).

I am challenging those who would like to make a lot of money selling these alt treatments are willing to put their mouth where there money is.

For example, is there anyone out there who has actually used, say juicing, ALONE, WITHOUT CHEMO SURGERY OR RADIATION, to TREAT their cancer. Not asking for prevention, or help with side effects.

Thisi is my second battle with cancer. My first battle was during the summer of 2006 . I had testicular cancer then. I even started a cancer blog to help others going though this.It took me over a year to decide to do the cancer blog. The link to my cancer blog is below.
