Hello!
I have a few questions about cancer.
I have this massive lump on my forearm. It doesn't hurt very much but it doesn't have any mobility. I've had one cancer scare before when it was a possibility that I had brain cancer.
I was wondering, what does a cancer lump feel like?
What does it look like?
What kind of cancer could I possible have if I'm getting a lump on my forearm?
Could it be Hodgkins? (spelt wrong probably)
Any answers or information would be great.

it's just i have heard so many things about how cancer rates are rising rather than lowering. and the treatment industry takes billions of pounds/dollara per year. I AM NOT APPEALING OR REFERRING TO ANIMAL RIGHTS CAMPAIGNS. i simply want to ask if anyone has any opinions on whether our current methods and practices of cancer treatment are misguided, and perhaps only continue due to all the money and vested ineterests poured into current practices. perhaps it iwould be impossible by now to admit we are doing things wrong...has anyone heard any stories or has any real opinions on this? i do not agree with animal experimentation, but that is a whole other issue and this cancer thing is unrelated. i am talking about regardless of animals, is our approach at best wrong and at worst fraudulent???

My son was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome at five yrs old. I have read a few things that said a poor diet can increase his problem, but that some people have had luck in diminishing tics with a gluten and casein free diet. SO, if you are on a diet like that, could you let me know what kind of foods a 12 year old could find tolerable, being that he is used to the typical American diet. Any info will be much appreciated!

oone except geniuses would know you were doing it? And how would you handle the ones who figured that out?

I believe my daughter is doing this, and I don't see a way to stop her. She is allergic to cats and she owns an exotic cat in her trailer and is breathing unfiltered dander into her lungs in quantities great enough that I feel my breathing strained when I go over there! What can I do?

She uses the prescribed medicines to keep herself from coughing as much, but they are masking the problem, the cat!

I am allergic to cats and particularly my daughter's exotic cat, Harvey. I get itchy and sneezing, runny sinuses and have harder time breathing in her trailer because of that cat as near as I can figure! One time I fell asleep on her couch and the cat jumped over my head and a hair was deposited in my eye, that swole it up and ached it until I spent a great deal of diligence removing that hair from my eye with lots of soap and water flushing. My daughter has been diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer, mestastisized to her lungs. She does not make any connection to the allergies of the cat. She can hardly breathe unless she uses lots of medications. She does get the sneezing
and choking over and over, but she is so numb to her predicament that she refuses to listen to me about the dangers of that cat in her trailer. I realize that not everyone is allergic to cats. Why would she choose to keep such an animal when she is having so much trouble breathing?
