What are grades 2 and 3 of cervical cancer?

Answer 1

Was going to give you the same information 'Tarnished...' did, so here's something else--

Five hundred years ago, people said the world was flat. Today, people say that if the FDA and AMA haven't blessed something, it can't be real good. Well, here's something I know to be real AND good. It's a little different take on cancer treatment--

In 1990, I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma, stage 3-B, but I've survived. My doctors were great people, but they were limited to surgery, chemo and radiation by profitable AMA treatment policy. During the year in treatment, I started learning about alternative medicine. I'm a retired engineer, and this is what I've pieced together--our IMMUNE SYSTEMS become weakened by poor nutrition, lack of exercise and reduced oxygen. Once that happens, our body becomes vulnerable to common STRESSORS. Stressors can be environmental, like viruses, heavy metals, pesticides, food additives, electromagnetic waves or pollution. They can be internal things like emotional or job stress, or poisonous people in our lives. Aging is also a contributing factor. So this means:

WEAK IMMUNE SYSTEM + STRESSORS = DISEASE (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, etc.)

Our bodies have 60 trillion--yes, trillion--cells, and there are always some mutating into cancer cells, but a healthy immune system kills them before they have a chance to get a foothold in the body.

It takes a LONG time, usually, or a high level of stressors, to weaken the immune system to the point where it won't do its job, but once cancer has formed, it will generally spread rapidly.

THIS IS IMPORTANT! There are ways to BEAT cancer that are currently being used in Europe and around the world, and there are some great books on the subject. I know because I've read about 50 of them from cover to cover. Here's a list of the best ones. Some are out of print and getting hard to find--

"The Cure for All Cancers", ISBN 0963632825
"The Cure for All Advanced Cancers", ISBN 1890035165
"A Cancer Therapy", ISBN 0882681052
"Oxygen Therapies", ISBN 0962052701
"Hydrogen Peroxide--Medical Miracle", ISBN 1885236077
"The Natural Cure for Cancer--Germanium", ISBN 0533071410
"Killing Cancer", ISBN 0705000966
"Natural Cures 'They' Don't Want You to Know About", ISBN 0975599518

I know of people whose cancer has 'spontaneously remitted' (WENT AWAY for no known reason) AFTER they went on programs of herbs and nutrition to restart their immune systems.

You and your family must look out for yourselves to stand a chance of being healthy. This is not a joke, and I'm not selling anything--just trying to help.
I am using the things I learned in those books right now to fight off a second infestation of cancer. I've been at it for over a year now, and think I'm going to make it. Use what works for you, and pass on your success. Best of luck.

Answer 2

I had a grade four cervical cancer. It went to my liver. I am survived and doing great. Please think positive if you are the one with it. Take care and good luck

Answer 3

I am pasting info from the American Cancer Society on Staging of Cervical Cancer..

If you are wanting information on Cervical Dysplasia or Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia CIN 2 and 3 then good information can be found here
www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/understandingcervicalchanges

Stage IA: If you have stage IA1 cervical cancer, your treatment will most likely be a simple hysterectomy. However, if the amount of cancer is more than 3 mm (stage IA2) or the cancer has invaded the blood vessels or lymph vessels, you will need a radical hysterectomy along with removing lymph nodes in the pelvis.

If your tumor invasion is very superficial and you want to have additional children, treatment by cold knife conization is another option. This approach requires careful medical follow-up so that additional treatment can be given if the cancer comes back (recurs). You might want to consult with a gynecologic oncologist (a doctor who specializes in women's reproductive system cancers) to see if you qualify for this treatment. The 5-year survival rate for treatment at this stage is more than 95%.

If you have a hysterectomy, tissue removed by this procedure will be examined in the laboratory to see if the cancer has spread further than expected. If for some reason a patient cannot undergo surgery, radiation therapy, external beam and brachytherapy, or brachytherapy alone, may be given.

For women with stage IA2 who want to have children, trachelectomy is an option.

Stage IB: Either of 2 treatments may be used if you have stage IB cervical cancer. The first option is a radical hysterectomy with removal of lymph nodes in the pelvis and removing a few lymph nodes from higher up (para-aortic) to see if the cancer has spread there. If cancer cells are found in the edges of the organs removed or if cancer cells are found in lymph nodes during this operation, you may be given radiation therapy, possibly with chemotherapy, after surgery. .

The second treatment option is high-dose internal and external radiation therapy. Cure rates (about 85% to 90%) are about the same for high-dose radiation therapy or radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection. So how a woman feels about the side effects of the 2 treatments and the presence of any other medical conditions that might make surgery dangerous should be the basis for deciding between the 2 options.

Recent clinical trial results show that the combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy with cisplatin is more effective than radiation alone for women with stage IB2 cervical cancer. This prompted the National Cancer Institute to recommend that chemotherapy be considered in all patients receiving radiation therapy for cervical cancer larger than 4 cm (about 1 3/5 inches).

For women with stage IB who want to have children, trachelectomy is an option.

Stage IIA: Just as in stage IB, either of 2 treatments may be used. The first is internal and external radiation therapy. This most often recommended. Chemotherapy with cisplatin will be given along with the radiation. A second option that is only used if the tumor has not grown far into the vagina is radical hysterectomy and partial radical vaginectomy with removal of lymph nodes in the pelvis and removing a few lymph nodes from higher up (para-aortic) to see if the cancer has spread there.

Cure rates (about 75% to 80%) are about the same for radiation therapy or radical hysterectomy and partial vaginectomy with lymph node dissection. Your treatment choice will depend on the size and other characteristics of the tumor, your feelings about the side effects of the 2 treatments, and the presence of any other medical conditions that might make surgery or radiation therapy dangerous.

If you have a hysterectomy, tissue removed by this procedure will be examined in the laboratory to see if the cancer has spread further than expected. If the cancer has spread to the parametrium (tissue next to the uterus) or to lymph nodes or if it has not been completely removed by surgery, radiation therapy is usually recommended. As mentioned above, recent clinical trial results show that the combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy with cisplatin, possibly combined with other drugs, is more effective than radiation alone.

Stage IIB: Combined internal and external radiation therapy is the usual treatment. Recent clinical trial results indicate that the combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy with cisplatin, possibly combined with other drugs, is more effective than radiation alone.
