Re: low red blood count

[Guest guest]

Jackie,

It would be useful if you told the list what kind of lymphoma and the

stage. It is also important to know if the anemia was caused by

chemotherapy. What has his conventional oncologist recommended?

Barbara,

are you referring to multiple myeloma when you say MM?

My wife was diagnosed with MM in 2000 and is currently doing well. We too juice

every day besides doing other things in the alternative realm.

What else are you doing using alternative approaches?

Thanks, Slim S.

my RBC is good thanks to the daily juice made from:

2 apples, 3 carrots, small red beatroot, piece of

of black reddish. All organic. The red beetroot is

essential!

This is a modified Breuss juice that keeps me in good

shape. Actually I feel much better than last year when

diagnosed with MM. No meat, no animal products, all

organic, better uncooked, if possible.

Generally with NHL, the more aggressive the cancer, the more aggressive the

chemo, and the greater the chance of remission or even a cure. Low grade

NHL is the real headache as it is so difficult to cure. The natural things

recommended by list members are well and good, but your doc might want to

use Procrit, etc. Anemia almost always attends an aggressive chemo

protocol. The Procrit does make the severely anemic patient feel better

and it can bring up the count, but it does not extend life. Bananas have

a reputation of stimulating hemoglobin production, but I would suggest

verification as a ripe banana can be 18% sugar.

Hi

He is having organic bananas when I can get them. Most things that has been

suggested by other members he is already having or doing.

His cancer is low grade stage 3 in his neck chest stomach and groin and is not

curable. All chemo does is try to kill the large cancer cells but doesn't reach

the small cancer cells so the small cancer cells just keep growing, it is a

vicious circle. People with this kind of cancer seem to spend what time they

have going through one type of chemo or another one after the other and as you

said very aggressive chemo at that. They have no quality of life and I don't

want that for my husband which is why I am using alternative methods to try to

keep the cancer slow growing.

Clams and carod (the fake chocolate found in health food stores) are listed

as #1 and #2 respectively on the handout from my hospital's oncology dept as

being the best things to eat to bring up your red counts.

Hi, for problem lumps that are difficult to cure, I think one has to directly

attack the lump with some thing. For example electro therapy or hot ethanol

injection directly into that lump, even magnet therapy, using neodymium magnets.

Immune stimulation may be great for stopping the spread of a tumor, but for

difficult lumps, I think directly attack that lump as well as using immune

therapy.

The concerns voices are legitimate and it reminds me how 43 years

ago while I was bragging to a well-known Naturopath about how I was feeding

my infant son homemade fig juice. He said, " that is wonderful but

remember, it is still a lot of carbohydrates/sugar and the body must

process it " .

Granted that was almost fifty years ago and we know that 'good' sugars are

assimilated better, the fact is that is still a lot of carbs/sugar

and sugar and cancer are still sore points with most of us.

Hi moonbeam,

Would you suggest for instance doing the same with a large (9-10 cm)

protruding lump of infiltrating ductal carcinoma?

Also, would there be anything that you would suggest applying topically on

the lump itself? Would it also require making sure

the growth has a way to drain out and if so in what way and how?

Thanks,

Gubi
