Is the only way to cure a cancer infected lung is to remove it? If no what are the other ways?

Answer 1

You need to be asking this question in the Religion & Spirituality section

Answer 2

If the doctors say it's operable, that means it's in the early stages. If that has been suggested to you, it means you're still in the early stages and it could save your life. There are no guarantees with Lung Cancer. If it is too large or has spread, they will not even attempt to remove it. It's a crapshoot, but there are many things you can try. Drink Organic Barley Grass and Essiac Tea. Try to get a pH balance by drinking apple cider vinegar mixed with water and eat ONLY foods which help to create a pH balance. Cancer thrives in an acidic body, but cannot survive in a pH balanced body. Check out information on inhaling hydrogen food grade hydrogen peroxide. Chemotherapy and Radiation may shrink it, but they have their risks as well. There are many options open to you, both traditional methods and alternative methods. Read all you can about it, and try to make an informed decision. Check out www.cancertutor.com. Don't give up on it, whatever you do, because doing nothing will definitely not help.

Answer 3

In short yes. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are often given together in a regimen known as CHART, but the only way to have a chance of curing lung cancer is to remove the diseased portion of lung. If you know someone who has the option of partial or full removal of a lung, then they are a fortunate lung cancer patient, as so many don't get the chance.

Answer 4

It would depend on how far the cancer has spread. If the cancer is in the early stage, they could be able to do radiation and chemotherapy. If it has spread farther in the lung, then they may have to take out part of the lung that is infected and that could include the whole lung if the cancer is very bad.

Answer 5

You can try taking Cesium Chloride with Rubidium. I believe there is also one with DMSO. Its on some natural website made in 2000. I cant put websites here, so you can email me on that. Those are pretty much the two best natural remedies that you can combine to get rid of cancer. Its not a chemo therapy type of drug. Its about $75 dollars a bottle. A bottle lasts you a month. If you have heavy cancer, it will last you about 3 weeks. After taking the natural remedy, you need to eat some bananas or potatoes to replenish yourself with the potassium that you have lost. And, you can also take some Oxygen Drops with this. Cancer cannot survive if there is too much oxygen. What these oxygen drops do is help your body get more oxygen, thus killing any cancer that comes in contact with the extra oxygen. Do eat alot of greens, but I want to warn you of eating foods high in iron. These include but are not limited to broccoli, beef, red beets, etc etc. This is the natural building blocks of cancer. Without iron, it cannot grow. So, cut all iron out of your diet. Um, you should be eating more bran. So, look for bran cereals and brown rice. Thse bind with iron within the body, thus taking out everything that cancer needs. Good luck.

Answer 6

dependent on how far the cancer has spread then it may be that removal is the only option.
if you are in the early stages some more conventional treatments are available such as radiation and chemotherapy but please understand this is not a guaranteed cure.
if you have tried all this and still face surgery to remove the lung you might try some of the more unconventional treatments as used by the Chinese all though not documented many have claimed that such things have helped. i hope this helps and hope with fingers crossed all ends well for you.

Answer 7

Unfortunately their is no cure for cancer yet. Lung transplants are the only option at the moment. Unfortunately some people who receive these transplants don't appreciate the chance they have been given and continue to smoke afterwards.

Answer 8

depending the nature and growth rate.

late diagnosis would mean removal of affected area and surrounding tissure, with drugs & radiation. High chance of later cancerous growths.

earlier diagnosis, especially if no nodes are effect the outcome can treated with minimal tissue loss.

one of our dustman age 54 survives with half a lung and can still out work me.

Answer 9

I am on second round of chemo. for secondaries in the lungs.
I am inoperable but very positive and hope to live for many years to come. My prognosis isn't very good but I'm still beating the odds.
My message to all cancer sufferers is to stay POSITIVE>
I know its hard sometimes but I just know a cure is around the corner.
Stick in there..........xxxxxx to everyone on chemo.

Answer 10

only part of my grandads lung was plagued with cancer,therefore he only had part of his lung removed.that was 15yrs ago,he's 80 now,apart from being a bit short of breath,he is very healthy.i dont think there is another way,if its going to save someones life theni'd go ahead.

Answer 11

Radiation or chemotherapy, but if the cancer has spread too far, they wouldn't be feasible.
