Guest guest Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Hey everyone, I hope I don't upset too many of you who may feel that my question doesn't apply to this topic of eating Raw. I'll be brief as possible. I'm interested in you all's input regarding my issue since a great many of you are very much into natural health like myself. Here it goes: I have 2 cysts and an unidentified lump in my left breast. I'm considering getting a lumpectomy for the questionable lump. I'm not too worried about the cysts. Have any of you had an experience with getting a lumpectomy? Or know someone who has? Did they heal OK? I'd rather get the lumpectomy instead of biopsy because if the lump is cancerous I want it removed. I've read a lot about how needle biopsies may not be safe because they deform they lump and could cause cancer to spread if the lump is cancerous. Also, if any of you have dealt with cysts, I'm curious to know what you did about it and what the results were. Thanks and take care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 I am currently in treatment for breast cancer, and know of an online support group where you could ask this question and most likely get some really good answers. Please contact me privately if you are interested.

I myself would do the cancer-curing herbs (red clover, chapparral) and a juice fast, etc, before operating/removing things. As well as rebouding and skin- brushing, etc. In 30 days you should be even able to see/feel a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 Hello potential917, I use to get cysts (mastitis) quite often around my menstrual periods, most of which would go down on their own. I remember some being quite tender and painful. One time I had one that lingered on, so I aspirated it with a needle and syringe which was the common procedure back then. It turned out to be a blue dome cyst, which would have eventually absorb on it's own. In fact that was the way the doctor I worked for determined whether it was a cyst or a solid tissue. I know of several women who have had lumpectomies with out any problems. With breast cancer on the rise, I think doctors are overly cautious about any type of lump in the breast today. As soon as I went thru menopause, I have not had any more cysts. Sharon, Faith the gift of God. Faith is also a choice. I am currently in treatment for breast cancer, and know of an online support group where you could ask this question and most likely get some really good answers. Please contact me privately if you are interested.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Hey everyone, First off, let me tell you all that your messages have been so inspiring. I appreciate the honesty and the straightforward advice immensely. I have a big decision to make and I think I just need to decide how hard am I willing to work to heal myself. If I decide that I don’t have what it takes to really become disciplined in eating better and living better then I might as well just get the surgery. However, the thought of that just drives me crazy. Elchanan mentioned that I have toxic waste dumps. I’ve learned that cysts are formed from too much estrogen in the body and that we ingest so many chemicals that mimic estrogen. I’m currently trying to fix that problem. I’m changing my hair products, skin products, and whatever else that I can so that I won’t ingest so much estrogen. I do agree that I’d only be treating the symptom which of course I don’t want to do, I want to fix the problem. It’s just that the word CANCER really throws you for a loop you know? However, I know I’d be very pissed if I got the surgery and then the lump came back which I’ve heard happens and I bet quite often. I don’t want to write a book now but there’s so much more I’d like to say but I’ll just save it for later. However, I’ve been considering the surgery because my doctor who I found through the ACAM website believes that it wouldn’t do any good for me to go through some kind of treatment now since we don’t actually know if I have cancer or not. My thermogram showed that I have heating patterns in that area so I’m thinking this lump is cancerous. If any of you see a more holistic type healer please let me know how you came across them. I know we’re not all in the same city (I’m in Columbus, Ohio) but any suggestions on how else I can search for a doctor that believes in self-healing will be greatly appreciated. I’m not too sure of this doctor I have now considering that she doesn’t believe that colon cleanses are necessary and that waste doesn’t get backed up in the colon. I underwent a colon hydrotherapy session and I’m sure that that black stuff that came out of me had been there for a long time you know? Well whatever, I’ve said enough, don’t want to bog you all down. Thanks again everyone Sincerely, Amber Smith Be a better Globetrotter. Get better travel answers from someone who knows.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 I want to fix the problem. It's just that the word CANCER really throws you for a loop you know? Hey, please get the video " Cancer Does Not Scare Me Anymore " by Dr. Lorraine Day. She is at www.drday.com. She IS a religious person, and not that there is anything wrong with that, but most who are not just overlook it. Besides, this video is great, it does not reference her select religious views much. She is also a head doctor, and knows her stuff. She had breast cancer.... reversed it naturally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Hello Amber, I have a friend going through exactly what you are going through and she had me accompany her to Port Charlotte, Florida to see a Naturopathic Doctor which believes highly in the healing power of living food and herbs. BEFORE you have anting removed I recommend you speak to him. Have you ever wondered why cancer shows up in our lymph nodes? Since our lymph nodes are part of the bodies sewer system maybe they are on there way out until they reach a blockage. Won't the logical thing to do is clear the blockage and let them continue on there way out? I believe a raw diet and herbs will help accomplish this. The Doctors name is Robert Morse, N.D.,D. Sc. www.godsherbs.com. Good luck and do your research before you do anything permanent.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 You mention Rife machines. This IS my area. Rife is an interesting frequency medicine area, but VERY difficult. Similar results are obtained with " zappers " designed by Hulda Clark and Bob Beck. I know, I make these things for researchers. HOWEVER these, like traditional drugs are effective at acute condition treatment. It is still (and always will be) the chronic state of the body that allowed these problems to manifest in the first place. A highly disciplined, at least 50% raw (don't start) all vegan diet, with adequate rest and exercise is the only known long term effective " treatment " that I am aware of. treatment for immediate life threatening acute conditions is great and we are lucky to have good choices. However if you don't change the underlying cause, you will shortly find yourself in trouble again. Simply pouring less gas on a fire doesn't make it go out. People tend to become obsessed with what magic thing can they ADD. People have serious health challenges and listen to bad, often plain wrong advice about what product, drug, surgery or supplement will help them. The short answer is there aren't any. The only " cure " is a properly functioning immune system. Many things cause the immune system to not function properly. Frequency medicine and drugs can straighten out things that have gone too far, BUT if you keep doing what you were doing that caused the problems in the first place, they will quickly return. The serious challenge is to find what caused the problems and change what you eat. That is one of the hardest things to do. They say it is easier to change someone's religion than their diet. Many of us would never have adopted this sort of diet if our lives weren't threatened in a crisis. We are the lucky ones and mostly still here and healthy. Good health is more a matter of what you SUBTRACT from your diet, rather than what you ADD. The #1 thing to subtract is all dairy products. This is hard as dairy protiens are ingredients in almost all processed foods. Even tuna in a can generally has diary in it (sodium casinate / casien). It's used as a glue to make the tuna appear more solid. Dairy protiens are horrible, forget " lactose " that isn't the big problem, it's the protiens. See notmilk.com for through details and references. Dairy products, including raw / organic are almost perfect cancer fuel. The #2 thing to subtract is all animal products. Chicken is the same as beef, pork or fish. Only marketing makes you believe that there are distinctions between them. The #3 thing is all processed foods and oils. You have to control 100% of what you eat. That means preparing your food and taking it with you, without exception. You can easily take a " green smoothie " with you, many people do this. Just listen and try. Get that Vita Mix out and do this, which I have modified for a bit less sugar: Put in Vita Mix container: 1) Granny Smith or other tart apple 1) Frozen banana (peel before freezing) 2) glasses ice water (fill with ice before adding water) 2) leaves collard greens 2) leaves kale Pulverize into liquid, add water if required to get a consistency you like. The result is a green drink that should taste pretty much like a banana milkshake, surprisingly palatable. Extremely high nutrition, reasonable amount of calories (very high nutrition per calorie) and tons of fiber for peristalsis and to scrub your tubes the natural way. Drink 2 or 3 Nalgene bottles of these a day, have a giant salad and some raw or steamed vegetables. Do not touch dairy, animal products or processed foods. Do it for 30 days and evaluate where you are. I followed that advice 2 years ago and all my health problems (CAD, Type 2 diabetes & pancreatic cancer) are all GONE with no surgery or drugs. Not a trace of any of them left. Note that I was diagnosed and followed up on at major university teaching hospitals by dept heads, PET scanners, heads of protocol development for chemo, head of cardiology, etc. This isn't some anectdote from bumf____ general hospital. It was Cleveland Clinic and M D Anderson. I did not take their advice (surgery, chemo & drugs) but I made sure they monitored my conditions to be certain I wasn't deluding myself. Start with one book; Eat to Live by Joel Fuhrman MD and watch the RAVE Diet video (sells nothing), which I will send you free if you contact me privately. Watching that changed and saved my life. Some people can't afford organic. You don't have too. Here is the definitive guide to what to buy organic and what doesn't matter if it's organic; http://www.foodnews.org/ Finally, you need some support. Go to meetup.com type in raw food and join a local raw pot luck group. The stories are all the same, only the names of the diseases are different (there will be plenty of breast cancer stories). Many of these folks think a 100% raw diet is best and they cite the enzyme theory which is nonsense. At MINIMUM a 1/2 raw, 1/2 cooked, 100% vegan diet is what you are after and that's hard enough to comply with, but these groups are great and highly motivating and educational. Just question it all, demand evidence (current evidence, not 60 y/o evidence) and stay away from miracle multi level marketing food & nutrition products from the juice+ folks and others that are always trolling the pot lucks and fad stuff like Goji, Hemp, Coconut Oil, etc. - EVERYTHING you need is in the produce section of the grocery store, NOT in the aisles, dairy or meat cases. Many people say a raw diet gives you everything you need, maybe in olden non-depleted soil times. I suggest taking a sub-lingual B-12 of around 1,200uG once a week. Get methylcobalamin NOT Cyanocobalamin. Also I suggest about 100 (not more) mcg/day of D-2, NOT D-3. D is VERY important and does a LOT of what people think C does. Check out veganhealth.org for more sound, science based, advice. Iodine is something we have to watch too. I know it's heresay, but you are way better off using common iodized salt than " special himalayan salt " salt in processed foods is generally not iodized, especially in " health food " . About 1/4 tsp a day will do ya (76 mcg iodine). The Himalyan people suffered greatly from iodine deficiency and had high goiter rates and thyroid problems. THEY now eat iodized salt and all those problems have gone away. So the Himalayan people import and eat iodized salt. We import their salt and belive it is extra good for us and pay through the nose for it. Go figure. Fasting is great too (the body's reset button) if you can find the time and supportive environment. Dr Fuhrman has an excellent book on that too.

Of course diet is important, absolutely. But I would get a GB4000 frequency generator machine in a HEARTBEAT if I had a cancer, etc., as well as change my diet.
