Guest guest Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hello Miriam, Im so sorry to hear this. Iodine seems to be useful for breast cancer and worth looking into - there is an iodine group.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Hi Miriam, Before I write anything, I just wanted to say this first. Everyone is different, so what suits one person may not suit another, so it is always best for your brother's friend to check with her surgeon/oncologist to make sure that any suggestions made would be suitable for her. Two people who are very close to me recently had breast cancer. Unfortunately one of the women now has secondaries in her bones, however she is doing exceptionally well and the doctors are surprised at how healthy she is. So my thinking is that it is NEVER too late to try and do something to get healthy again. My friend said that her energy levels increased after going on a vegetarian diet. She uses goji berries, some stuff called 'frequensea' (I'm not saying it is good or bad or trying to sell the stuff - just letting you know what she said has helped her a lot. Remember! Your brother's friend needs to check with her doc first). Be warned that it is expensive stuff, but she swears by it. She also uses some 'conventional' drugs, but I'm not sure which ones. She also eats organic food and home grown vegetables. She tries to exercise (walk or ride her bike) regularly. She also sees a homeopath and naturopath, as well as her oncologist. My other friend eats many vegetarian meals and avoids sugars and fats. She was told that sugars and fats can 'feed' the cancer. I've been told that eating lots of food from the brassica family of vegetables (broccoli, bok choy, etc) is supposed to be good for you if you have cancer, however one of my friends ate a lot of this sort of food and ended up with terrible heartburn, so I guess it is a case of 'everything in moderation'. I've also heard that Indole-3- Carbinol is useful for people with cancer, so it might be worthwhile for her to look into this too. I wish her all the luck in the world.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Thanks for all that. It's good to read such a positive report. I'll forward the ideas from everyone to my brother.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hi Chris I was referred to the Breast Clinic about 10 years ago after I found a lump in the upper part of my breast. This lump had been there for a long time, and at times, it was quite painful, especially just before my period. It was about 1 " in diameter. They took several X-rays before I was summoned to St Luke's Hospital in Bradford. I was amazed at how many people were there in the waiting room. I was examined by a consultant who prodded and poked and examined every one of the X-rays (8 in all) and he concluded that it was OK and that it wasn't a lump that needed to be interfered with. Much to my relief. This was a Fibroadenoma, a lump composed of fibrous and glandular tissue and was quite harmless. This gradually disappeared (though I now have one on my back just at the bottom of my shoulder blade. I hope that if you are being examined because of a lump that you will find it to be as innocent as mine. Sheila Hi Miriam I've just been referred to the Breast clinic, do you know what happens and what they do? Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hi Sheila I'm sure this is innocent, I've had it a long while now and been hoping that by ignoring it, it will go away. The side of my left breast gets very sore and I remembered to mention it to GP today, she examined me, felt a lump, hence the referral. It seems to get really sore usually when I've been lifting heavy shopping.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 If I had it I would borrow enough money to go to that Cancer clinic in Mexico (darn cannot remember the name of it ). The one that gets slammed by big pharma, and scientists, if they don't like it it probably works. Their own studies show huge success. Now it may not work but I would feel the need to give it a try. They sell armour on their products site so they must be good at something I would also take the highest amount of iodine possible without having a toxic effect of course. Sprinkle my cornflakes and dinner with Flax seeds for GLA. I do hope she doesn't have it and that it is a false alarm.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I hope it is innocent Chris. I think if the lump is painful it is more likely to be . However, I will be thinking about you so let us know how you get on. Sheila Hi Sheila I'm sure this is innocent, I've had it a long while now and been hoping that by ignoring it, it will go away.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hi Sheila I got a telephone call from the hospital at 7.30 am yesterday morning (shock, horror) asking me to go in today for diagnostic tests and was told I would have the results by the afternoon. I went and was examined by a breast nurse, sent for a mammogram and then an ultra sound. The conclusion was that my breasts are so small the lymph nodes can be felt, so thankfully it was considered all quite innocent before any fine needle stuff started. Have to say I cannot fault the NHS on the speed in which they reacted to this. Chris > > > > I hope it is innocent Chris. I think if the lump is painful it is > more > > likely to be .

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Hi Chris Speed indeed, and absolutely, nobody could find any fault the NHS, this was excellent treatment. Mind you, I think getting a phone call from the hospital at 7.30a.m. must have been quite a shock, I am amazed there was anybody about at that hour. You must feel terrifically relieved now and I am pleased for you that nothing sinister was found. Thanks for letting me know. luv - Sheila Hi Sheila I got a telephone call from the hospital at 7.30 am yesterday morning (shock, horror) asking me to go in today for diagnostic tests and was told I would have the results by the afternoon.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Jane I don't want to make you feel like I am brushing you off but have you contacted www.breastcancerchoices.org ? They have a group that is dedicated to the treatment of breast cancer and they do recommend Iodine. Lynne Farrow is the one who runs the non profit for that website and is a BC survivor herself. She is a wonderful person and very knowledgeable. You can tell her sent you. Also Sally is there as well and will help you if Lynne cannot. I think they will do a better job than I can since my cancer was in the Thyroid. Breast cancer In July I had a mastectomy(breast cancer).I had been feeling quite ill for several months prior to the diagnosis. I have started to research, and believe I am hypothyroid and /or iodine deficient. I wonder if you know of any UK based MD's who might be able to help?I emailed Derry who very helpfully suggested I take 10 drops 5% lugols per day. I started my chemo last week which is tough going.I have read about vitamin D3. Any help would be appreciated.Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Dear Susa, I believe that any iodine treatment helps breast cancer, before and after. Even if your friend wishes to have the cancer removed, the size of the tumour can shrink and this can reduce the surgical trauma to the site, i.e. she may be able to have a lumpectomy instead of a masectomy which is better. Before an operation the surgeon should do a scan of the tumour. It might be possible to shrink it if her operation is not to near. If she is not keen on taking iodine internally, she can use it topically. Iodine is also useful in defending the body from metastatis. If there is a secondary cancer already growing it may slow, stop or even reverse the growth and according to Dr Derry, iodine makes cells "fuller" and the interstitial gaps that let cancer cells pass from one site to another via the lymph system are blocked up. He thinks that this stops or slows down the spread of cancer. Anyway, don't just believe me. Google Dr Derry. That there was a second doctor who had independently come to the same conclusions as Dr Abraham was a big factor in convincing me that iodine was a good treatment for breast disease. If your friend reads English may be she should read www.breastcancerchoices.org. Hope this helps her, in France From: Susa <nata70fi@...>iodine Sent: Fri, 29 April, 2011 10:47:19Subject: breast cancer hi,a person who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer should she start iodine now or after surgery? should it be applied on skin? I heard the cancer cells are now size of a thumb.She purchased iodine and companion nutrients a while ago and but she says that she does not want anything in her body now to further confuse the situation. I know she must be in shock but iodine would be good for her right now? She gets bad symptoms always when doing any cleanses so if she should up iodine quickly now, it would be awful for her. What kind of dose is good? is it better to remove cancer growth anyway, iodine does not help that fast?Susa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Iodine is required for the body to kill off cancer cells itself. Most people are severely deficient in iodine. If your friend doesn't get iodine going, her body will simply be unable to kill off the cells that the surgery doesn't find, and the surgery cannot get them all. www.breastcancerchoices.org -- At 04:46 AM 4/29/2011, you wrote: >Dear Susa, >I believe that any iodine treatment helps breast cancer, before and >after.
