My relative was recently diagnosed with cervical cancer, and I have been looking ofr treatments. I don't really need a webpage about it, since I've found plenty of those, but I do need treatments that have worked of people whom you personally know.

Aside from surgery (hysterectomy), radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, what treatments are there? Any breakthrough techniques that are minimally damaging to her? I know her survival odds are slim, since she's 86 years old, but I would like to do everything possible to help her.

If you have any success stories or successful treatments (doesn't matter which country or which type of approach), that would be very helpful.

"looking FOR* treatments"

2007-01-19 14:12:55 · update #1

She is an extremely active woman. I'm not sure what she wants, because that's not easy to find out from her, but she has definitely been a strong lady all her life, always taking walks, cooking, and taking the bus wherever she needs to go. She's not very frail at all, so that's why I would like to find a good treatment for her.

Well chemotherapy isn't anything like it used to be. My mom was diagnosed with lung cancer last May. She went through the chemo and radiation and as of November she was cancer free. They just found a spot in her brain where she hadn't had radiation yet that is cancer.
She's not worried at all about taking the radiation or more chemo. The worst problem she had was her hair falling out and she was severely constipated due to the pain pills. She had a sore throat, food tasted like metal and she was weaker then a dishrag at times but it wasn't anything like we saw my dad go through.
You said you want to hear about new techniques but the new chemo's they have now are targeted to specific types of cancer so you don't have to have a ton of that poison injected into you.
The most painful part of radiation was when they gave her tattoo's so they'd know where to aim the beam. It looks like tiny little party dots.
I'm so sorry for your aunt and cancer isn't fun no matter what kind it is but it's much more curable then ever before.
My dad suffered so much (colon/rectal cancer that spread to his stomach). He had so many surgeries he told his doctor to just put a zipper in. He lost his hair, he was so weak he couldn't walk, he aged 30 years in 2 years battling this disease. He couldn't eat because of the nausea.. it was pitiful.
My mother didn't even suffer 1/100th what my dad did and believe me we're grateful. Twenty years makes a big difference.
Try not to worry so much if they do the surgery, chemo and or radiation. Just be there for her and help her in whatever way you can. Keep her interested in life so she'll keep on fighting but don't let it wear you down too.
Bless you both and I wish you the best of luck.

She is 86. This is very important to keep in mind.
What does she want? What is her current quality of life? Is she able to walk on her own? Is she active? Is her mind alert and focused? Does she have any pain or other symptoms?
Treatment for cancer is often worse than the disease.
86 can be very frail and she may not be able to handle the terrible treatments.
Again, the most important question is: What does she want? Does she have an advanced directive?

If appropriate, please consider hospice. It is all about choice and what she wants.

You are in my thoughts

Yes, fortunately I do know of some treatments for cancer. I've personally had someone close to me diagnosed with cancer about 6 months ago. 1st of all it is best to take the person off all those doctor recommended treatments, like radiation therapy and chemotherapy. These so called treatments help you and hurt you at the same time. With chemotherapy it helps treat cancer, but your hair falls out and the person has more medical problems. So let me tell you what you do, go to the nearest HEALTH FOOD STORE. Ask if they sell NONI JUICE AND Florescence. These products are natural and don't have any bad side affects because their natural and come from the Earth. Also ask the health food store worker if they know of any other products in their store that can help for the treatment of cancer. Noni juice has worked for my family member that has cancer. It helped stop the spreading of the cancer cells. Also a good diet is called for also. She needs to drink ots of water. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Limit salt and sugar intake.( The
health food store may have a big book in the store describing all the different medicines they have for certain things. Look under CANCER and you should see medicines for cancer.) Also any medicines she's taking you may need to get her off them. The reason is because some of the time doctors give their patients experimental medicine. What I mean by this is that doctors give patients medicine they get from the drug company to see if works. So some of the time doctors use their patents as experiments basically. So try these. They work, because their natural. I hoped I helped you. So glad I could reach out to you.

I would not suggest radio- or chemotherapy to someone that old, because it might kill her faster than the disease itself. Surgery is also risky, depending on general condition.

For solid tumors, there are experimental treatments using antiangiogenic agents, which are much less arsh than traditionnal chemo. But the protocols that are available are for now for gliomas (brain tumors) and thyroid tumors. And she might be rejected on basis of age.

What I would suggest is a diet plan including all the cancer-fighting foods, while remaining enjoyable for her (no crazy all raw-food diet). The hopes that it will cure her are very slim, but this has no side effects, and at least will keep her healthy.

For someone her age, the best option is to treat mainly the symptoms. This is difficult to accept, to be told by the doctor that the only treatment available will kill you. I know what you are going through. My grandma was diagnosed with leukemia at 80, and my aunt was angry at the doctors for not attempting chemo.

Treatment and possible cure, she can try emu oil gel caps, emu oil kills cancer cells and is safe for the human host without side effects. You could suggest this to her and she inturn could discuss this alternative with her doctor. I personally know people that have fully recovered and presently have no cancer from taking emu oil gel caps.

This book gets great reviews from Amazon.
"Beating Cancer with Nutrition" by Patrick Quillin

He tells people what they need to keep their immune system
strong. Usually cancer treatments weaken the immune system.

cancer is a disease of cells occurs when cells lose its abilties to reproduce in a orderly manner. What you need to do is to strongly and dramatically interrupt and reverse the cancer-causing conditions in your body so that it becomes healthier, and stops breeding cancer. Here r a few things that will be helpful to u or whoever u know has cancer.....1) Low Levels Of Cellular Oxygen Breed Cancer...
Increasing Oxygen Levels Kills Cancerous Cells
2) Acidic pH Levels Lead To Cancer...
Normalizing pH Levels Can Stop Cancer In Its Tracks
3) Low Levels Of Enzymes R Always Found In Cancer...
Increasing Enzyme Levels Can Wipe Out Cancer
4) Cancer Cells Have Low Subtle Energy Vibrations...
Raising The Vibratory Level In The Body Disrupts Cancer Growth
5) Reduce Levels Of Toxicity
.....there r a few more but these r prolly da best common ones....actually by using one or combo of two of these or more in addtion to therapies will greatly increases the odd of beating cancer......
.........

look up how u can ozonated n energized water which is very important since ur body is made up with 70% water......Y???

A Bolvis scale measures the life energy of all living thiings.... From 0 to 6,500 Bovis, the charge is in the NEGATIVE range, or life-detracting; while above the 6,500 Bovis point, the energy gradually becomes more POSITIVE, or life-enhancing. human is measure as 6,500 bovis which is netural..Humans desired minimal energy level is between 8,000-10,000 bovis which is slightly positive...the earth itself in 7,000 to 18,000 bovis
even bottle water r only up to 5,000 bovis which is negative...cancer cells r anywhere from 2,000 - 3,800 bovis negative.....also in relation...all atoms or molecules have a electrical spins.....everything that is below 6,500 bovis has a right spiin(clockwise) n anything that is above 6500 has a left spin (counterclockwise)......cancer cells spins right....healthy good cells spins left........earths rotates left...moon rotates around earth in a left orbit...earths rotates around sun in a left orbit.....get the picture....its positive n good.......ENERGIZED N OZONATED THE WATER N C WHAT POSITIVED THINGS IT CAN DO TO UR BODY.....the more oxygen n positive energy ur body can absored the harder the cancer cells to grow and/or reproduce..
pretty much this kind of explain some of the things i mention above earlier....this is pretty much regarding number one and four and a little number five


n by the way stop or cut down eating lots of sugar and refined carbs cause cancer cell loves sugar...they have about 8 times more receptor cells for capturing sugar than healthy cells. u dont wanna be friends with cancer u wanna be enemies with them......
