Re: LDN for brain glioma - 6 years old patient

[Guest guest]

Hi Stavros,

I have a friend that had cancer throughout his body and is now cancer free.

He did the juicing program and he went into a clinic with alturnative

medicine. He may start on LDN soon as he wants to keep the cancer from

coming back. Another person that has had similar experiences with cancer

and is cancer free now is Tom from our web site. The juicing program is for

turning your body into higher level of an alcoline and less level of acid

(the PH levels). The theory is that cancer does not survive in an alcloine

setting.

I will forward Tom's earlier story below:

My Personal Experience With Low Dose Naltrexone and Cancer

My Name is Tom and my screen name is TomOnLDN. I will be in my third

year of Stage IV malignant melanoma which had metastasized to the

lymph glands in my neck, shoulders and under my arms. CT's confirmed

that it had metastasized to the lymph's under my jaw on the left side

and around the spine at the back of my neck. The lymph node under my

jaw is swollen the size of an unshelled walnut.

Research on the internet in areas that the medical profession use

educated me to the fact that when there are tumors with the melanoma;

they are larger than 1/16th inch in diameter and the cancer has

spread to the lymphatic system, it is in stage IV and convention

treatments with chemo and radiation are no longer effective. In other

words, it is to late by their thinking.

Two weeks prior to finding I had stage IV melanoma, I also had

squamous cell carcinoma which started on the top of my forehead and

spread to and around my eye, into the sinus cavity and towards my

mouth.

So under my circumstances, I opted to go 100% natural. So I set out

researching cancer for the past three years. I my research, I came

the conclusion, especially from the methods I have been using, that

cancer and other diseases can not be necessarily cure, but managed to

help keep in remission.

I first started out with a good nutritional diet and keep myself very

alkaline. Cancer can only thrive in an acidic environment. In

addressing my tumors, I decide to opt for the use of a drawing salve

(black salve), in my case, Cansema. I documented in every detail,

along with hundreds of pictures, the two years I used the salve to

draw out tumors. Some of the tumors were as big as ½ too ¾ inches in

diameter. The problem with this method, was that the tumors were

producing faster than I could keep up with. In my research, this

possibly was brought on by edema which was cause by the

aggressiveness of the salve.

So I knew I was going to have to make some adjustments. One year into

my battle, the spring of 2004, I added to my therapy Wobenzym N from

Mucos Pharma in Germany and approved for sale in the US. This is a

superb product that I still use to this day. Enzyme therapy is very

important in any disease or prevention of disease. I started out on

60 pills a day to as little as 30 a day. I was introduced to two

different kinesiologist. One in Kentucky and one in Michigan, both

who monitoring me the past two and a half years. It is with their

help, I was able to know how much Wobenzym N and other necessary

supplements I need to take as well as what was effective and what was

not. They also monitored my diet as well.

As well as all this was working for me, I still had flair ups in my

cancer activity every time my immune system was compromised and I got

real ill. So I decided that I needed to research more and look for

something else that would enhance my immune system to keep this

cancer in remission. Then a friend of mine told me about being put on

low dose naltrexone for his non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in January of this

year (2005). He knew very little about this product. So I started to

do my home work. I found the Low Dose Naltrexone website and after

reading about the women's experience in France that had three month s

to live due to melanoma that had spread to the brain, and lived for

twelve years afterward until she stopped taking LDN, I said this is

the product I want to take.

I went to three doctors that I have known for some years, and no

would write me the prescription. Their excuse was that it was not FDA

approved for that use. I reminded them of other drugs that they

prescribed for other uses beyond would the FDA had approved them for,

but that did not convince them. One even wanted me to have surgery. I

knew better or they were not well educated that surgery is to late

for stage IV melanoma.

I ended up having to be paired with a doctor in Ohio who is on LDN

for MS to get my prescription. Once I received the LDN I had my

kinesiologist test me. In testing my endorphin level, it was only at

10%. Testing with LDN, I was not responding due to a malabsorption

problem. I suggested that we try D-5 Extra along with the LDN. When

tested, my endorphin level went to 90%. I could absorb the

naltrexone

I started the low dose naltrexone in March of 2005. Prior to getting

on LDN, I contacted a serious upper respiratory infection that caused

my cancer activity to flair up 60%. My lymph nodes swelled as well.

After starting on the LDN in March, I again, in April, contacted a

serious upper respiratory infection, but this time my cancer activity

did not flair up! That told me it was working.

My report from my kinesiologist this week, Oct 18, 2005, was that

even though I still had my cancer, it was not active. The naltrexone

was keeping it under control. She was amazed herself.

So I even though I am on naltrexone, I still watch my diet. I think

that this is very important when fighting any disease that naltrexone

is being used for. It can do no more than help enhance the

effectiveness of the drug.

As far as it keeping me awake at night, I do not have that problem

because I also take 3 mg of Melatonin at bedtime. It is important

that one is in a good, deep sleep when taking LDN, Light of any kind

can disrupt the sleep pattern. Therefore the bedroom should be pitch

black at night or at least wear a sleeping mask.

Today, I am thankful to God for giving me the wisdom and insight to

educate myself on how to manage my cancer. And I am also thankful for

Dr. Bahari for his dedication to the research of LDN, which in my

opinion, could be one of the most valuable, life saving and life

enhancing drugs every discovered that even someone going the

alternative, natural route, would not even think twice about before

taking it.
