There are many different types of Leukemia's, and hence potentially many different treatments for it. This is termed treatment modalities because it involves a planned strategy of potentially curative (surgical + systemic therapy + radiation therapies - but this last one is only curative in some cancers); adjuvant treatment with increases the probability of cure; maintenance treatment which delay's or prevents relapse after completion of main treatment; and palliative treatment which is used to relieve symptoms. Basically the best and most common form of cure is surgery. Surgery, is part of the curative modality that has a goal to completely ablate all cancerous tissues. The problems with leukemia cures is it requires a painful process that has a low success rate. These include: The mainstay of treatment for younger patients in chronic phase is allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (big fancy phrase for describing a bone marrow transplant where the donor is a very close if not perfect match to the patient).
Furthermore they tend to treat with systemic therapies like chemo, hormonal, and biological. The drug names that are more commonly used with leukemia's include: methotrexate, thioguanine, vincristine, vinblastine, and imantinib. Again, these drugs are applied to the specific type of leukemia that presents itself.

I have Aml. Treatment for this type invovles a series of chemo treatments radiation and ultimatly a stem cell transplant.
Contrary to the belief of some previous answers it cannot be cured be eating raw foods. And actualy raw foods can be fatal to leukemia patients. The treatment they are going through is targeting the bone marrow and blood cells. These people have no immune sys. It is impossible to get all the dirt and chemicals off raw food. May not harm a healthy person at all, but can cause serious infection in a leukemia patient.
Stem cell transplant from a donor is the best chance for a cure. Chemo and radiation will only control it and only for a short period of time.

Depends on the mutations and pathways of the disease. There are two major one that they use the same type agents for years. Then they have new "wonder" drugs and if they get your insurance to approve it they will test them on you.
There is the problem. My sister had it and when they used the normal stuff she was ok, then the new stuff made her sick. So I looked it up on Yahoo and found out that the stuff caused pneumonia is 38% of patients treated. I warned her and others withher and they stated they would never use it again.
Ultimately she was told she was 99% free of it and they wanted to do a marrow transplant. During this time we originally told her she needs to go to M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. When she mientioned it to them that would not let her leave and then told her she could go for a day.
Long story short they gave it to her again and in four days she passed from pneumonia. Moral is sick to the normal stuff. One of her bossy friends said she was dealt a bad hand, what an idoit as my sister would say. She was fine up until they started the experimental stuff again and that was all she wrote. You make sure you get two opinions even during the treatment if needed, because doctors are no different than airline pilots that get drunk. These doc and nurses that screw up should be held accountable and if they cover it lup should be put in jail for a mandatory 5 years. They would due it to you . You are not a test animal.
I have a friend that has cancer and they gave him 3 months and he was to get11 chemos, but said the heck with it after the 3rd one. He now takes this stuff called New-U, made from muscadine grapes, go to www.old southwinery.com. turns out that the world has studied this stuff called resveratrol. It kills most kinds of cancer, including brest. They lhave links ato it.
They also ahve the stuff at most vitamin stores and health food stores and it's made from the root of the knotweed plant. That is what the testing was done with by the Chinese and Japanese. M. D. Anderson in Houston also has a bunch of studies on lline and there is a 60 pages report that explians it all and the only way to tell you how to get it is try yahoo nad googl and put in "aggarwal resveratrol" and "md anderson aggarwal resveratrol" .
This report explains what plants it comes from, the cancers it cures and most importantly the pathways and mutations it handles which is what the doctor will need to know. The stuff just goes in and tells the cell to go away and also tells the killer cells to get em. It's that simple. The action of the new stuff they were giving my sister was like spraying bug sjpray on an ant jpile, just stop the outside ants and did not get to the queen. Which she had taken it. but check it out.
God created good stuff and here is an example. It you can not find the report let me know and I'lll try to e-mail you. You know how most have the site on the bottom of the page, this has like 2006 and the $$$$ sign. Hope this makes sense. Take care.
Almost forgot, the friend that had three months to live, well that was 2 and a half years ago and he is still the same jerk he has always been God bless him. Just kidding, but he is ok, so this stuff must work. You can also call the winery and get them to send you the testimonials, ask for Scott he knows about the most. Also if your family thinks you are too young to know what you are talking about or something like that just show it to a doctor, it the doctor is normal he'll know whats going on. Also everybody should take the stuff as it prevents the stuff, it is also like Vioxx and celebrex, a Cox 1 and 2 inhibitor, without the sideeffects and get this it puts a ton of 02 in your system and is like Viagra, no joke. A fix all Take care again.

A very open question - it depends on the type of leukemia, the age of the patient, and, in many cases, on specific indicators (technical terms including the immunohistochemistry, cytochemistry, and morphology). Additional factors include the stage that the cancer is in (early vs. late), as well as the functional status of the patient (are they able to take care of themselves, vs. being bedridden, etc.). The best place to look for answers is to go to any search engine and type in "American Cancer Society", and then go through their links.
Good luck!!

leukemia is a enzyme and mineral deficiency. go to your health food shop and get a good enzyme supplement and a colloidal mineral supplement and a good broad spectrum mineral tablet to. . and start eating raw food. cooked food is bad. its good if theres nothing else to eat and your going to starve but if not its counter productive to health.
ok so iv just heard that, and iv never seen if it works with my own eyes. but it wont hurt to try that's for sure. so if i had it id try it. theres nothing to loss if you do you can do it along with any other treatment you have. it none toxic.
if i had it id get myself as nutritionally saturated as possible. with essential fatty acids form flax oil from the fridge of the health food shop. form all kinds of vitamins and antioxidants. id do heeps of research on nutrition related to cancer. id arm myself with the knowledge of nutrition related to cancer.
it might not be a cure but it will help the person.

Hi Gorgeous 10 CA (= california?)
Here is a person who has assisted many people with all diseases for the many decades with success.
Dr. Richard Schulze about Cancer, Parkinson's, Seizures, Epilepsy, A-Lateral Sclerosis, Myasthenia Gravis ... and Other Supposedly Incurable Illness, Neurological Disorders, Brain Diseases, ...
Answer recorded by _BOB, typed by Lillian
You know one of the programs I have that I often refer to people is a program I call Incurables program.
Yes
And the reason is, it is a blitz!
I back up to a little story:
When I first did a brain examination of a cadaver, and I pulled that brain out and held it in my hands, I knew immediately we were not suppose to be there.
I knew immediately, we do not know enough, we do not have what it takes to be inside the human body.
To be prodding and padding, cutting and burning and altering metabolism with chemical poisons.
Were crazy, the best thing we can do, is try to create a lifestyle that is so insanely positive and nurturing, that your body will heal itself from anything. And that is really what the Incurable program is.
I will be the first to admit we do not know enough about any of these diseases to try to heal that with chemicals and radiation beams, ... cutting and snipping.
And that's insane, we don't even know how the human body works.
Read any anatomy, especially physiology books, and the first thing you'll see is everything eventually leads to:
“We don't KNOW”
THE reality is that we don't know.
A Doctors, Scientists and Professors are afraid of to say that, but I'm not: "we don't know".
Epilepsy and seizures can be caused by a waste amount of things, the hundreds that I know of and a by thousand that I don't.
So, the best way to do it… is ...
If you try to chase the epilepsy or any disease, You always gonna loose.
Or it could take you years to discover.
I don't have years, and my patients did not have years.
Most of my patients where already told they gonna be dead two or three months before I ever saw them.
So I need to get there quick And the best way to do that is a blitz.
A blitz-program like the incurables were you are affecting your body, mind and spirit, just about every way possible.
In fact some people often say to me: "I have done your total incurables program" .....
and I think "liar" – I have put so much into that program and I don't think anybody could ever do it!
My patients all fail, and I fail on it ... but the point is: Every waking hour you are doing something positive for your body, mind and spirit and so epilepsy and any disease where doctors says it's incurable, ….that's why I call this Incurables program, which I borrowed from Dr Christopher, and his incurables program. I pretty much ... you know….bought, borrowed, steeled, stole, or my-patients-thought-me everything-I-got … blended it up and mixed it together ... and all I think I'm famous for is "turning up the volume".
I know I'm skipping epilepsy for a second, but this is important.
This is really ... What set me apart from everybody else ... is .. I literally tried to kill people with water, fresh juices, foods, high enemas and positive affirmations and hydrotherapy.
My patients where already dead... I had nothing to loose. They where ready to put the a pedal to the medal, and do it with a gust though, so… I'm like “let's do it” and what I discovered was:
“what a bunch of ******* we all are", you know, we have no breaks at all, we have no hesitations when it comes to partying and killing ourselves.
And you probably heard me say that right?
What I already said:
When someone opens that 7th beer, they never thought about calling the beer-manufacturing and seeing if it was packed in six-packs because that is adult doses. You just party. But when we are getting well, everybody‘s got their foot on the brake, they are riding the brake….
I used to have to beat my patients, throw them off their chairs, throw them into cold showers, and I would often take a walk down the ocean and throw them in the ocean ... to get them to wake up and really ... hey man, if you put half the energy into getting well as you have into killing yourself, you are saved in a week.
And, so, hmm…anyway, the incurables program is really a blitz, a full spectrum program that I developed to try to hit many different important fundamental areas, and my patients who did the incurables program, had amazing results, you know, cancers fell off, or disappeared, supposedly incurable Parkinson's disease, Alateral sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, ... we could go down to endless list of supposedly incurable neurological disorders.
I mean ... you name it ... what I always call healing miracles ... is what I learned that if you turned up the volume, the intensively enough….
Cause here is what I always say:
Look,
Well natural healers and herbalists are fuzzy fooling around, with selling candles, mild foods… So many people that I know try to get recognized by the government so they can be licensed.
I don't give a damn about that – I always, and I only have one focus to help people heal themselves.
I don't get into the politics of the other herbalists and natural healers that hates me, but when you run a clinic, and you watch them suffer and die, you work your *** off to help people to get well, so,
I watch the doctors on the other hand…come on, if you go to a doctor with cancer they are going to cut your *** off, they are going to fry you with radiation, they are going to flood your body and blood with the most toxic chemicals known to mankind, ok?
And a natural healer is going to give you a teaspoon of herbs…. A - A
I realize that If I was going to get people well from these diseases that even doctors couldn't help, we had to crank up the volume until they puke….ok, and I did…
Incurables program
