Guest guest Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 Ernie - For about 25 years Lorraine Rosenthal of www.cancercontrolsociety.com has maintained lists of people who are still alive and well thanks to alternative cancer therapies. Call her for more info. (Pacific coast time) Most of these people will be willing to talk to you on the phone. She started the annual Cancer Control Convention held every Memorial day weekend in Los Angeles many years ago. It's been dedicated to safe, sensible, effective alternative cancer treatments all these years. About 50 speakers over 3 days time and all kinds of booths and and exhibits. STRONGLY recommended for anyone who can attend - one day or all three. Her website, although modest, has a lot of information from recent conferences. - Art [ ] > Hi. > > Just recently joined this group. I have been diagnosed with metasticized colon cancer (currently in my lymphatic system). > > I have read much on alternative therapy, and have become somewhat convinced that it might work. One thing though: Almost all the literature I have read, and persons I have spoken too are woefully low on testimonials. I have yet to speak or communicate to a single person who actually walked away from a terminal diagnosis. > > My question to the group: Are you all deluding yourselves (and, me). Can anyone state credibly and honestly that they know (firsthand) persons who HAVE survived cancer by following an alternative medicine regime? THIS would satisfy me that maybe there's a chance. Short of this REAL evidence, I don't think any self respecting person can hold out hope for alternative therapies. > > Don't get me wrong: I am following an alternative regime. But I need to have real PROOF that it CAN work. > > Can anyone out there provide this?? > > Thank you. Ernie > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this is how I feel. I can't remember your symptoms, sorry, but if you briefly list them and ask again for others here with like symptoms to respond, chances are you will get some responses. norton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Lee this has been tried and most Dr.'s will not read them hell they will not read a copy of the AACE Guidelines. A lot of guys have print out Dr. 's TRT Treatment and they will not read them are they anygood I don't feel they are if one has a Dr. that only knows what the drug reps tell them one needs to find a better Dr. http://www.aace.com/clin/guidelines/hypogonadism.pdf Phil patrolbase18 <patrolbase18@...> wrote: Guys, I wanted to make a suggestion to all concerning treatment.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Phil, You are right - that was my first doc. I fired him! everything was good until I started asking questions about treatment I've heard about in this group. I'm sure I scared him when he figured out I was beginning to know more than he did. I will say that my PCP is awsome!! She has read everything that I have given her and we discuss it. Last Friday we sat down and talked about the whole E2 thing and the light went on and she was in total agreement. I now have to get my endo to turn his light on. He is pretty up to speed on most of this but he'll get more education soon. ;-) Thanks Phil Lee philip georgian <pmgamer18@...> wrote: Lee this has been tried and most Dr.'s will not read them hell they will not read a copy of the AACE Guidelines.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Lee I have never found a good Endo I would drop the Endo and try to work with you PCP Dr. will work with your Dr. over the phone he does this a lot. He will get the PCP Dr. up to speed and then you would not need him anymore. http://www.allthingsmale.com/ Phil lee d <patrolbase18@...> wrote: Phil, You are right - that was my first doc.
