Hi all,
I would love any advice on diet, treatment experiences, implant experiences, online or other support groups.
I recently learned that I have breast cancer. I noticed a lump and some pain shortly after I had surgery (and 6 chest Xrays!) for my collapsed lung a couple of months ago. Prior to surgery, I had it checked by my EDS practitioner, who told me there was a small amount of cancer so I chose to have it removed intact rather than have it biopsied. The biopsy result came back and it shows the 2.5 cm tumor was invasive ductal carcinoma and the margins also had ductal carcinoma in situ.
The report says it is grade 2, stage T2. It is estrogen and progesterone receptor positive and HER2 negative. I will need more surgery since cancer was in the margins around the tumor. And they need to do a sentinal node biopsy.
We are still waiting on genetic testing for the BRCA analysis to see if I am in the higher risk group for breast/ovarian cancer.
I am 46 years old and it is pretty shocking to hear that I may need a single (or double mascetomy if I have the bad cancer gene) and perhaps my ovaries removed. I am getting a second opinion on Tuesday.
I am worried that if I need a mascectomy that I will not tolerate an implant well. I never even thought I would be considering breast implants but I don't have any extra body fat to transfer it and the alternative of having nothing seems pretty bad too.
I am drinking carrot/cucumber/kale juice once daily (plan to do more) and am taking shark liver oil and wheat grass tablets along with proteolytic enzymes. These products were all tested through energetic testing and shown to be helpful. I was told Vit C IV's would be good too but haven't done that yet.
I will probably need surgery again in early June. So I need to decide how extensive that will be.
If you have any information or experiences to share, I would be grateful.

I am just beginning this journey (sort of). I really don't have any advice...other than knowing what its like to feel like you keep crawling yourself out of one hole only to fall down another in the "health" dept.
I just wanted to offer support and concern and prayers. I hope you have a good support network and find compassionate health care professionals.
Keep us posted.

I am so sorry to hear this news. Very upsetting. I don't know much about breast cancer and the various treatment options. I just had to send a note of encouragement and let you know I will be praying for you.
I do recall a very knowledgeable health food store owner telling me the importance of supplementing with iodine (liquid potassium iodide, I think). I'd research it first though.

I am sorry to hear about your struggle. I have been very interested in your posts and found them to be very helpful.
I am not sure if you have tried this product, but I think it should be considered when treating cancer as well as lyme:
Curcumin kills cancer cells long before they can be detected; it induces cancer cell apoptosis (cell suicide). Epidemiological studies have linked the frequent use of turmeric to lower rates of breast, prostate, lung and colon cancer.
Curcumin can both prevent - and treat cancer. It suppresses LOX 2, NOS MMP 9 and COX (these are enzymes that make carcinogens much more active once they are in the body; they also allow cancerous cells to grow new blood vessels). The area of the kinase inhibitors is a hot area of oncology drug development. There are many of these protein kinases and they act as message lines into the DNA command center of the cells. Curcumin can effectively blocks a number of these lines. It has the ability to prevent skin cancer, is effective against colon cancer, it also enhances immunity and stops angiogenesis (ability to enable tumors to create an own blood supply). Xanthorrhizol (a sesquiterpenoid compound isolated from the rhizome), exerts anti-metastatic activity in vivo.
As such is has high promise to be used as a natural cancer treatment and prevention medicine.
My daughter and I use this product as I believe cancer may be related to lyme disease as well. I do believe it is treatable.

I have read that LDN is helpful with breast cancer, maybe you should read about it and ask your doc.

I'm so sorry to hear this. They did pick it up early though, so you are fortunate in this regard.
A friend of mine had the full masectomy last summer. She just got her new nipples last week!
Here's hoping to a speedy recovery.

So sorry to hear this, Tick Battler: what a blow for you.
My friend believes that stopping dairy helped her with breast cancer [that is, if you are not already dairyfree].
The following link is to Bill Henderson's newsletter, which I get regularly. You can access all sorts of info from his site and for under $200 as a one-off payment, you can have unlimited access to his mentoring, I believe, once you have read his book.
Good luck, TB. The second part of your name must give a clue to your spirit of determination, which will serve you well. I hope you will let us know how you get on,

I read somewhere that sugar feeds cancer. I also know of a lady named Kris Karr. She stopped the growth of cancer tumors by going to a raw diet.
I looked into a side business one time for matectomy patients. They make really good quality breast forms now.
I'm sorry to hear you are going through this.

My thoughts and good wishes are with you. First thing negative about breast cancer are root canals, per Dr.K. I hope you have none.

I am sorry to read about this and my support is with you, as is all of ours!
The website www.healthy.net has lots of good and very important info. This is highly trustworthy information, only well known naturopaths articles are found here.
The naturopaths whose articles I have read on this site, stress as a pattern and as a consensus, among other things (this is not medical advice, just info, read further and check with your holistic or integrative doctor):
a) Cancer cells are in every human body, it's only when immunity is weakened that it takes over. To support the immune system is part of the key to holding the cancer in check, and also to getting it back under control
b) Environmental toxins, metals, pesticides, preservatives in foods, and internal toxins all hold down the immune system. Cleansing is key (make sure all channels of elimination are open first, very very important! Do this under professional guidance with a naturopath who not only knows how to cleanse rid the body of toxins, but how to support the channels of elmination and to open up the detox pathways)
c) The naturopaths are of the opinion that chemotherapy and radiation therapy drop T cell levels which may ultimately be more dangerous than the disease itself, in certain cases (perhaps this does not apply across the board, but caution may be merited). (FYI I also have three friends who have done mainstream radiation/chemotherapy and they are doing well).
d) The good news: There are ways to support the T cell production during such therapy. I cannot advise and won't but will PM you with some sources and their contact info
Read more on the website above.
The NIH researcher-applauded book Herb, Nutrient and Drug Interactions has info about milk thistle in cancer therapy as support to reduce side effects from radiation exposure and chemotherapy et al. You can also research this on pubmed www.pubmed.gov but be sure to check with your doctor about this, I am only passing on info I have read but have zero medical background, this is for info only subject to further inquiry with your doctor and not for self treatment!
e) Dr Mercola writes that in his clinic, he has seen best results of all by having people eat according to their nutritional body type. He is not selling anything in so writing, you can google him and the body types, nutritional plans and see what your doctor thinks about it.
Eating hormone-free, pesticide-free, antibiotic-free and preservative-free foods would be key. I have read in several sources that aspartame is linked to brain cancer, avoid synthetic sweeteners in general they too have been linked to fibromyalgia and other forms of cancer.
F) Hormone balancing would be key too. The man who healed me of environmental illness (now passed on) stressed that to balance hormones is to aid the recovery of the immune system (among other things, as part of a greater strategy).Dr Shames writes about this too in his book Thyroid POwer www.thyroidpower.com Also I would think breast cancer would be hormone driven?
G) The tap water contains tons of chemicals and metals that would fuel cancer growth. This is not The Cure but as part of ongoing support, to reduce chemical impact, I would immediately invest in a really high quality water filter. I really believe in the multipure (am not selling for them) www.multipure.com see the performance data sheet, the list of chemicals and metals removed from the waters is long and impressive!
H) Plastics contain PVC's which leach into our foods and cling to fatty tissue, contributing to breast cancer, according to numerous physicians's articles I have read. It's important to remove plastic trays and shrinkwrap before microwaving foods, best yet to use the oven rather than the microwave, but know that PVCs in plastics are released particularly by heat. I would think long term storage of liquids in plastic bottles would also leach, cold or hot. I tend to avoid things in plastic bottles as much as I can. (Dear friends: I have written to Trader Joes and Whole Foods, please join me in that effort, ask them for glass bottles instead of plastic!)
Very important: Pesticides are lipophilic (cling to fatty tissue, including breast tissue and brain et al) and to eat pesticide-free, hormone-free and antibiotic-free foods would be really important!
I) Heavy metals can contribute to cancer, according to 35 years of research by Hal Huggins DDS MS and many naturopaths whose articles I have read. To reduce incoming heavy metals (this is not a complete list) use aluminum-free deodorant and baking powder (available in healthfood stores), stainless steel cookware or other non-toxic cookware (no aluminum, this leaches into the food).
M) Here is a company that makes non-toxic home building and paint materials, including a Clear Seal product that can be painted over existing paints, glues etc to seal off outgassing: http://www.afmsafecoat.com/index.php
N) Real Goods in CA specializes in green products for the home like water and air filters, non-toxic paints et al: www.realgoods.com
Never self treat, always ask your doctor about anything you do. Again none of this is medical advice, only info for further research and to ask your doctor about.
FYI if it is of any help, I know someone (a friend of a friend, but my friend has verified that this story is accurate, so this is according to my friend) who was told by the mainstream that she had two months to live and that "Science could not help her". In that condition she went to a certain MD and between homeopathy and guided fasting using vegetable water in specific blends for targeted nutrients, she not only was cured but didn't relapse for more than 20 years. This was not breast cancer but the point is, that with *highly competent* care, there really is hope. You need to see someone who knows what the heck they are doing though, no fooling around, and not just somebody who has treated a cancer case or two. Someone truly expert about the body, the products, who knows their science in depth and has tons of practicing experience. I will pm you.

Hi Tick Battler. I too am sorry to hear of your struggles.
I've heard wonderful things about curcumin.
Also, There is a therapy called Decongestive Lymphatic Therapy.
I was taught by Cory Carter. www.lymphinfo.com. He also teaches EDS screening so he uses that in conjunction with this therapy to pin down where there is lymph congestion possibly causing problems.
His wife had breast cancer (not lyme added on top though). He was able to use this therapy on her pretty regularly and he attributes the halting of dying breast tissue from the cancer to the use of this therapy. He told us his wife was in so much pain from the cancer they took her to the ER and had her breast drained of almost 28 oz of fluid (maybe a little less that sounds like a lot!) The doctor's were amazed at the fact she had very little dead breast tissue, there was already some regenerating.
I have lumps in my breasts as well and lung issues arise often for me. When the heart is congested with toxins in the lymph (which often happens with lyme, heart palps, things like that) the lungs take on the burden, when the lungs are overwhelmed with congestion, the breasts take on what they can. Pretty soon you have lumps and who knows what kind of toxins are hanging out in that area. I'm no doctor but it can't be good!
I know his wife is not you, but may be worth checking to see if there are any decongestive lymphatic technicians in your area. If you would like I could do some checking if you give me your location in an email, or on here, whatever is most comfortable for you.
It is always a little tricky if you are on chemo for cancer, as that therapy gets your lymph liquefied and movable it can also make chemo go places maybe it shouldn't go. Just thought I'd throw the knowledge out there in case you think it sounds like something you might be interested in.
Best wishes to you and I hope you get the support and treatments you need.

tick battler, so sorry to hear this. You will be in our prayers.
My wife's best friend just found out that she has breast cancer too. They're giving her some chemo pills and the doctor has her taking Jarrow BroccoMax with it. BroccoMax is a Phase II detoxifier.
You can read up about some studies that have been done by John Hopkins. Seems promising.
Glucosinolate- Dr. Stengler pointed to research from Johns Hopkins identifying glucosinolate, an extract from broccoli and broccoli sprouts, as a powerful detoxifier and antioxidant. It works by blocking the action of free radicals, which are activated oxygen molecules that damage cells and precipitate cancer.
While eating cruciferous vegetables of all kinds, including broccoli, bok choy, cabbage, kale, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts, is a smart dietary strategy, taking glucosinolate as a supplement adds further protection.
Dr. Stengler�s approach: He often prescribes BroccoMax, made by Jarrow (800-726-0886, www.Jarrow.com). A typical dose is one or two 250-mg capsules per day.
A lot more good information on this website that I believe you'll find helpful.
We are standing with you in your fight against this disease!

Also, in my opinion, you may want to give Dr. Vincent Gammill a call. Vincent is a frequent poster at the cancercured group. He also runs the "The Center for the Study of Natural Oncology". If you want his phone number then I'll be glad to send it to you. Just let me know if you need it. The number is a 1-800 number. Plus Vincent will talk with you at length for free.
I personally know, Vincent and he is an honest man and as far as I am concerned he is the MOST knowledgeable person on the planet when it comes to cancer and cancer treatments. Vincent will more than likely be able to tell you what the best treatments are for your particular type of cancer.
He can also help people gain access to cancer treatments that most people don't have access to e.g., methylglyoxal, 2-Deoxy-D-glucose, sodium phenylbutyrate, benzaldehyde and etc.

To let you know that you are in my thoughts....I know plenty of women who have been down this path, detected early and they are living long, healthy lives..some 30+ years down the road...
I've no doubt this will be your experience as well.

Sorry to hear this news.
I have a prostate cancer patient in my support group. His cancer is supposedly the most agressive form with bad margins. He only had his prostate removed. No further treatment in about 2 years. He swears by flax seed. He seems pretty good. I would not want to do nothing, but he doesnt seem to be interested in agressive treatments.
I hope they can remove it al and that your nodes are clean. Thinking of you.

Hugs tickbattler, please know that I care and I'll be praying for you.
I have a good friend who recently battled cancer. She had stage IIIB inflammatory breast cancer. It appeared suddenly, just a couple months after her 2nd child was born. She was not even 30yrs old. We were all so scared for her (this kind of stuff isn't supposed to happen to your friend or loved one...). She completed treatment in less than a year. And now she's doing really well.
I only tell you her story because her prognosis was not good and yet everything turned out well in the end. You are strong tickbattler, even your name shows that you are a fighter. I believe that you are going to get through this and be well.

I didn't mention it in my post above, but yes, I do remember my friend mentioning flax seed also. Certainly worth looking into. This is probably something all of us women should add to our daily regimens.
There was a period of time when I was taking it regularly and when I went for my yearly gyno appointment, my doctor mentioned that my breasts were less lumpy. She said 'whatever you are doing, keep doing it'.

Oh, dear, I'm sorry to hear this burden has been added to you. Find a good doctor and a good hospital and take their advice. Breast Cancer medicine has come a long way, and I know so many decades survivors.
The ones who fared the worst didn't follow their doctors advice and were afraid of surgery and or chemo and avoided agressive treatment.
Follow your doctors advice.
Hugs, CherylSue

So incredibly sorry to hear this
I have heard of people doing Vit C IV's. I would think FIR saunas could be helpful too (but I think they could be dangerous with silicone implants...something to consider) With regards to implants, I think they have to be replaced every ten years. Surgery in ten years might not be appealing.

Just logged in and saw your post. I am so sorry that you have to deal with this.
The first thought that came to mind was Hulda Clarks book "The Cure For All Cancer" I have to say that just from doing the antiparasitic herbs and salt/c, I have had infection come out of my breasts and from under them.
The stuff coming out from under my breasts was in the form of a red sticky rash. What came out of my breast were parasitic scabs.
I am not saying this is the answer for breast cancer, but maybe as an adjunct.
The women that I used to go to for colonics told me that she had a patient who had breast cancer and that after working on her for a while with colonics, massage, and hot detox with towels, she had infection coming out of her breasts.
OTOH,
If it is advanced, the double mastectomy might be the wisest. I am hoping and praying for the best for you.
P. S. Sending soup

tickbattler, I have no experience personally with breast cancer but something that came to my mind reading these posts is:
Find yourself the best Lymph Drainage trained person in your city or surrounding cities. Find someone that has worked with cancer patients.
Find someone with healing hands before you have your surgery. Afterwards you will have too much other things to do like resting and making sure you give your body time and rest to heal.
Find a friend or family member that can take you to have this body work done weekly. Keep those lymphs flowing.
Maybe there is other body work that would be of benefit after surgery. Lymph is just the body work that made the greatest difference in my body detoxing.
Detoxing is going to be key for you. Good thoughts and strength coming your way by prayers.

As everyone else, so sorry to hear the news!
Just one thought regarding treatment that might help -- parasites play a big role in lyme and cancer, so this may point you in the direction of treating those aggressively.
Wishing you the best!

1.I would listen to Gael and start parasite treatment.
2.Also start immediately LDN up to 4.5 and work with [email protected] - there are many breast cancer survivers in this group who did no surgery - post for help
3.Rub Lugols iodine on your breast twice a day, start slowly with some drops and use as much as you tolerate, my doc said 9 but I did more.Pm me if you do not find where to buy.
I am sure you can get better, but please get the LDN immediately.Every day counts. You can call a pharmacy to send it to you, they also have contacts for docs. Pm me for tel.numbers.

Selma is unable to post so asked that this be posted for her
Could someone post the following message to tick battler? The poor lady is now having to fight breast cancer on TOP of lyme disease.
Her thread in lymenet is:
Now I have breast cancer - any advice appreciated
I'm learning about oriental food therapy with one of Korea's best practioners. He said that the best thing for breast cancer (food) is raw corn powder. (the same flour that the italians use to make polenta). It's GOT to be organic, non sprayed, and NOT COOKED. And of course, non-GMO.
You can solve it in water, warm water but NOT hot water and take about 5 soupspoons 3 x a day. You can add honey or something to sweeten (the practioner said).
This is for normal people, of course. As a lyme sufferer, it's better to start slow, and NOT add sugar if possible. Or add stevia, if it tests energetically. If there's a chance for leaky gut, start slow too.
Stevia: just make stevia tea, let it cool, and use the tea to sweeten.(my recipy, not the practioner).
Corn powder is a very potent detoxifier for many organs, so expect strange reactions. Specially thyroide, liver and joints. I know people that suffer to the point of almost crying, so much pain they get from joints after taking corn powder.
I was TOTALLY unaware of medicinal properties of corn until I did this course and tried corn powder (or corn flour) myself.
If Tickbattler would like to try, tell her to try tapping all the 9 MFT points (similar to EFT points) about 12 times AFTER ingestion of the powder.
I don't know if she'll follow, but that is a cheap and easy method, so if someone could tell her, please do it for me, as I can't post in lymenet from Korea.
Thank you!
Selma

merrygirl, like all info provided above...I would cover all alternative care with my cancer doctor first.
If cancer cells are clogged up in a lymph node not moving along, I'd think it would be best to get all lymphatic system flowing.
Remember majority of lymphatic system is in the GI area. Lymph work starts at the head and moves down the body and out the disposal end.

I will pray for peace and all decisions made by you and care givers are the right decisions. This isn't holistic route, but have heard of women who have lyme and had to go through chemo for breast cancer, that the chemo put lyme in remission. Didn't talk to these people directly just knew someone who knew them. Hang in there.

There is a product called Fred Eichorn Cellect that is apparently unbelievable. Its a combination of vitamins that apparently can boost your immune system in incomprehensible ways.
It was developed for cancer patients. Someone mentioned it to me to try for Lyme but I haven't needed to. It might be worth checking out the website.
I know Fred Eichorn has been on Fox news for this amazing product for cancer.
