Success Rate for tratment of Non-Hodgekins Lymphoma? What is the stages and do people survive this?
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.
Reply:As described, he would have Stage IV lymphoma, which encompasses everything I know about that disease. There is an excellent online publication from the National Cancer Institute, however, that I've linked below.
Reply:Doesn't look good:





"The most significant factor in overall prognosis is the grade, or aggressiveness, of the lymphoma. Indolent (low-grade) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is generally not curable, but is typically slowly progressive and responds temporarily to therapy. Aggressive and highly aggressive (intermediate- and high-grade) NHL's are potentially curable with combination chemotherapy. Long-term survival or cure rates for these diseases vary with a number of prognostic factors."
Reply:It sounds pretty bad. If he has been diagnosed with a prognosis of 6 months to live, you could get him help from hospice if he would like help. They don't turn anyone down (even if no insurance or no way to pay). They provide nurses, home health aides, clergy, social workers, hospital beds, pain meds, etc...but this would be if he wanted to stop the chemo ,etc probably..he could ask his doctor
