How does it make you feel to know that a cheap, safe, and effective means to combat cancer has been found, but
Question by mighty.macabros: How does it make you feel to know that a cheap, safe, and effective means to combat cancer has been found, but
the FDA won’t allow it to be used because of patent issues?
The side effects are very dangerous, but it is very, VERY rare to experience them, and you should be monitored by a doctor while under treatment…..although if you are in America, no doctor can treat you with it due to legal issues. Red tape is keeping people sick.
Here is a link about the drug:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichloroacetic_acid
Makes me really hate how greedy humans can be……
posted in religion because if you are religious you should care about your fellow man. Which is not happening in this incident.
Vicarious,
And yet they are already using it as a means to treat it in Canada. That is not a clinical test though, even if it works…
Best answer:
Answer by Cookie Monster
Stop reading Wikpedia. It is unreliable.
Exactly what patent issues is the FDA dealing with. That is not their role. Do you have any source on this other than Wikpedia?
Keep this in mind, it really is in everyone’s best interest to combat cancer because it hits everyone, including those in decision making roles in the FDA and their loved ones, and they realize that too. I really dont buy all of these conspiracy theories.

Q&A: My mom said that the water heater has asbestos around it in the insulation. what do you think this means?
Question by Wizard: My mom said that the water heater has asbestos around it in the insulation. what do you think this means?
The material that surrounds the water heater and is also in the walls as insulation, contains asbestos and is dangerous for our lungs my mom says, my mom gets words mixed up sometimes , do you think she means asbestos or something else ? I worry about it day and night because I’m into healthful living, but I don’t want to worry about things that my mom is wrong about because she gets words mixed up all the time. What do you think she could mean by this, I would ask her but she gets really mad whenever I talk and she tells me to shut up ? She said she was going to get it replaced or torn out but she is waiting until she has the money. We are all coughing every day it seems like, this could be coincidence but I am worried about everyone’s health.
Our house is a condo and it was built pretty recently , like just a few years ago.
Best answer:
Answer by dirocyn
If your house was built within the last 20 years, it’s not asbestos. It’s probably fiberglass–which is still no good to breath, and can cause skin irritation–but it does not cause mesothelioma (a deadly lung disease) like asbestos does.
If it was asbestos, it would be better not to tear it out without tearing down the whole building. Tearing out asbestos puts particles in the air, which can cause you to get sick. If it stays undisturbed, very little gets airborne.

And the habit of decomposing right before your very (lalalala) eyes.

Accessorizing with a rosary tucked inside her lingerie
She’s getting a job at the firm come Monday.
The Mrs. will stay with the cheating attorney

Oh, wonderful caricature of intimacy.
Yeah (Yeah)
And not to mention, the constable, and his proposition, for that “virgin”
Yes, the one the lawyer met with on “strictly business”
as he said to the Mrs. Well, only hours before,
after he had left, she was fixing her face in a compact.

This is an abnormal examination. Osseous and vascular structures have a normal appearance for chronological age. There is normal expansion. There is normal aeration. There is no pneumothorax or pneumomediastinum present. There is no pleural fluid present. There is no pulmonary consolidation or infiltrate present. There are no pulmonary mass (es) or nodule(s) present.
Cardiac size and contour is normal. Meditational structures are abnormal. There is slight widening of the left superior mediastinal border. The contour suggests Lymphadenopathy.
The superior portion of the aortic arch is silhouetted. There are no areas of distinct hilar lymphadenopathy demonstrated. Suggest CT for a second level imaging study. Examination should be performed with IV contrast.
Best answer:
Answer by Cowgirl Nurse
You must have gotten this report from your doctor. He should be the one answering your question.
It is suggesting that you get a CT scan with contrast to show the possible abnormality seen in this xray. Talk to your doctor.

Get the word out on this video. – Wednesday June 1 2011 12:00 am en.wikipedia.org Cancer /ˈkænsər/ ( listen) (medical term: malignant neoplasm) is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth, invasion that intrudes upon and destroys adjacent tissues, and sometimes metastasis, or spreading to other locations in the body via lymph or blood. These three malignant properties of cancers differentiate them from benign tumors, which do not invade or metastasize. Researchers divide the causes of cancer into two groups: those with an environmental cause and those with a hereditary genetic cause. Cancer is primarily an environmental disease, though genetics influence the risk of some cancers. Common environmental factors leading to cancer include: environmental pollutants, diet and obesity, tobacco, infections, radiation, and lack of physical activity. These environmental factors cause or enhance abnormalities in the genetic material of cells. Cell reproduction is an extremely complex process that is normally tightly regulated by several classes of genes, including oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Hereditary or acquired abnormalities in these regulatory genes can lead to the development of cancer. A small percentage of cancers, approximately five to ten percent, are entirely hereditary. The presence of cancer can be suspected on …

Recombinant vectors based on a non-pathogenic human parvovirus, the adeno-associated virus 2 (AAV2) have been developed, and are currently in use in a number of gene therapy clinical trials. More recently, a number of additional AAV serotypes have also been isolated, which have been shown to exhibit selective tissue-tropism in various small and large animal models1. Of the 10 most commonly used AAV serotypes, AAV3 is by far the least efficient in transducing cells and tissues in vitro as well as in vivo. However, in our recently published studies, we have documented that AAV3 vectors transduce human liver cancer – hepatoblastoma (HB) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) – cell lines extremely efficiently because AAV3 utilizes human hepatocyte growth factor receptor as a cellular co-receptor for binding and entry in these cells2,3.

ACUPUNCTURE AS A MEANS TO REDUCE SIDE EFFECTS OF BREAST CANCER TREATMENT
ACUPUNCTURE AS A MEANS TO REDUCE SIDE EFFECTS OF BREAST CANCER TREATMENT
Article by Charles Ben
OverviewAcupuncture is called `Alternate Medicine and is used to relieve pains, provide treatment, prevent diseases and promote good health. It is used for curative and therapeutic purposes. Based on an ancient Chinese Belief that energy, called `qi (or `chi) flows through the body , acupuncture uses needles inserted into points or paths (Meridians) to relieve blockages which are supposed to have caused the symptoms or diseases. Acupunctural points are based on the number of days, the number of rivers flowing in the Chinese Empire and several other considerations. Dating back to the 2nd century BC, acupuncture has its roots in China and continues to be firmly implanted as a chosen treatment there. Scientists battle with its proof of validity; yet, due to the lack of substantial reasons to negate its effect, Acupuncture has carved a niche for itself amongst people from all over the world.
Breast Cancer and its associated pains and issues
Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that invades breast tissues and advances from there to other parts of the body. Treatments for breast cancer include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormonal and biological therapy. All these treatments bring their share of pain to the patient. Surgery results in pain in the localized area immediately after surgery and this pain abates with time. However, in certain instances, the surgery may require an incision of the nerves and this can result in long term pain or tingling sensations in the shoulder, underarm and chest areas. Radiation which does not cause immediate pain like surgery can bring its share of woes in the long term. Patients will feel tenderness and itchiness in the treated area along with a sense of fatigue and tiredness. Chemotherapy requires anticancer drugs to be injected into the body of the patient and while the type and intensity of side effects may vary from person to person, some common side effects include depletion of energy in the body, hair fall, nausea, vomiting, oral sores and diarrhea. Hormonal therapy includes the use of hormones like Tamoxifen which prevents the body from using Estrogen . Side effects can include irregular menstruation, hot and cold flushes, and can even cause blood clots in the leg veins. In advanced cancer, Herceptin, a biological treatment is used and this can cause nausea, vomiting, pain, headaches and breathing problems.
Acupuncture and breast cancer treatment
Conventionally, antidepressants are administered during cancer treatment to help patients to cope with the trauma. However, increasingly, acupuncture is being validated as a preferred alternative to alleviate pain and symptoms of breast cancer treatment. In reported cases, patients under acupuncture treatment are said to have experienced a decrease in hot flashes, with a slow decline in intensity and frequency. While researchers are still not sure how it works, studies indicate that acupuncture is effective in treating pain, nausea and extreme fatigue in patients and this information is based on real life case studies of patients who have received acupuncture. Some doctors opine that patients have to approach it with an “an open mind to the treatment. They add that it is easy, pleasant, and inexpensive and has no risks involved in it. In some studies, as many as three-quarters of cancer patients report being helped byacupuncture.

Wearing a Lung Cancer Ribbon Means a Lot!
Wearing a Lung Cancer Ribbon Means a Lot!
Article by Jet Jones
There are many famous and well known people in different fields whose existence was shortened because of this no. 1 killer in many countries, lung cancer. One of Hollywood’s celebrities who were afflicted with this awful disease was John Wayne.
Statistics show that majority of those who have undergone such costly treatments such as chemotherapy did not survive. All through these years, funds have been raised to research new types of cancer treatment such as targeted therapies. This approach attacks only cancer cells. In Canada, a monotheraphy targeted treatment coined as Iresa has been granted conditional approval for the treatment of metastatic non small cell lung cancer.
Not many people are aware that November is officially Lung Cancer Awareness Month. This is the month where concerts and fun run activities are held to raise funds and create awareness campaigns to bring attention about lung cancer. More people die from this disease. One of the expressive ways people show their support to a cancer victim, fighter, survivor and their families is by wearing a lung cancer ribbon. Ribbons are the international symbol for awareness.
What is the color of the ribbon for lung cancer? The official color is pearl and clear is also regarded as a lung cancer color. Pearl and clear ribbons reflect the reality that this terrible disease can affect anybody even a non-smoker. They also symbolize hope that mankind has to continue fighting until the war against lung cancer is eventually won. These ribbons also represent clarity and clearness of lungs for everybody.
When you purchase these lung cancer ribbons or any lung cancer items from non profit groups like a key chain magnet, a portion is donated to cancer research and to some charitable organizations helping cancer victims, survivors and their families. Even though the cost of these gift items is only a small amount, when people, thru social networking, blogs, forums, emails and sms strive to urge their families and friends to purchase these cancer ribbons, figures multiply and the funds raised go a long way really! Once you get excited and dedicated to this cause maybe not only of lung cancer but for all types of cancers, your support will create a domino or chain reaction effect.
If you start sharing the “buy a lung cancer ribbon” campaign thru the social media and thru video campaigns in You Tube, some celebrities from Hollywood or Bollywood in the entertainment industry and some celebrities from the sports world may be impacted by your passionate drive and join you in the campaign. They may start purchasing ribbons by the thousands and start handing them out to their fans. Or they may organize mall show concerts urging people to show their support by wearing the ribbon on their upper left hand side.
In the web, there is one site which focuses on marketing different types of cancer ribbons they call Hope products. These products are creatively designed to inspire, create awareness, to encourage healthy people and provide strength to those suffering from lung cancer syndrome together with their circles of influence to wear the ribbons everyday not only during the month of November.
You can choose their cancer specially gifts like ribbon pins, ribbon appliqués, car ribbon magnets, ribbon of hope pins, and ribbon key chains. Other support items are wristbands, car magnets, bracelets, caps and much more. Take advantage of their Bulk Pricing on many items. These items are excellent to promote and market for benefits, fundraisers, or giveaways!
You can visit their website, ChooseHope and browse their online catalog. Your purchase helps to fund cancer research. Just recently, they were able to donate ,000 divided among Mayo Clinic, Gateway for Cancer Research and the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Browse the About Us section to check on the personal stories of the people behind that date back to their first exposure to cancer and the changes in their lives. They experience the cancer world differently and from that starting point, they built an organization that offers hope, laughter, faith, positive attitude, and healing while at the same time making donations to cancer research facilities nationwide. So, do something, even the mere act of wearing a lung cancer ribbon can mean much and can make a big difference until the war against this awful disease is finally over!

True Cures For Cancer Means Treating the Cause, Not Just the Symptoms
True Cures For Cancer Means Treating the Cause, Not Just the Symptoms
Article by Alan Wighton
Our treatments today for cancer solely focus on removing growths and we all know that doesn’t necessary mean a cure will follow. The reasons being the growths are only a symptom and the problem lies somewhere else. A cancer growth is a sign that something is wrong with the body and it’s this something you need to deal with. Treating the cause will eliminate cancer from the body forever.
Conventional treatments for cancer now days with their life threatening side effects are a search and destroy mission with little thought about the damage to the human body. There is no point in removing cancer growths if they are only going to come back again in a more sinister form. That’s why to successfully cure the body of cancer it is far more important to deal with the factors that caused it in the first place.
Western medicine which is our hospitals and doctors who rely on drugs and surgery is superb in dealing with acute medical conditions such as traumatic injury like accidents. But there is no question that alternatives or natural treatments work much better for chronic degenerative diseases such as cancer. Surgery and drugs is a money orientated system but no one can profit from natural treatments because nature cannot be patented. That’s why you won’t be offered it.
Natural treatments work by assisting the body to heal itself. With cancer, ultimately it’s going to be your immune system that will cure you. Cancer, no matter where it appears is a disease of the whole body and a tumour is just a symptom of that disease. You must treat the person who has the cancer, not the growths or the tumour alone and you do that through nutrition and other simple lifestyle changes. Correcting the diet is crucial for everyone who’s been diagnosed with cancer.
Belief is also a very important element in obtaining a cure for cancer. One needs to be told that he or she can get well. Oncologists destroy people these days by telling them they only have 6 months to live or worse. When a patient hears this they give up. Doctors can’t heal, it’s only your body that can truly heal but doctors need to support patients with positive beliefs. Believing that you can be cured is called “the placebo effect,” that is having it instilled in your mind, and is a fundamental element in all healing of cancer.
Treating the cause means your food must be as fresh as possible as nature alone produces the perfect food for man. Also you need to exercise regularly and the easiest way is to find an exercise you enjoy. Just walking or aerobics are fine. Chemicals as well need to be looked at as they also contribute to the many cancers we get today. There are said to be over 70,000 chemicals in use now days and many of them are in the homes we live in.
To successfully overcome cancer one must deal with the cause rather than only the obvious symptoms as with our current way of treating it. We must never forget that our main weapon against cancer is our own body; that is the immune system. The human body is a wonderful self-healing organism when it has the right environment and only you can provide that. The cure has to come from within.
There is plenty of evidence to say there are no short cuts to regaining your health and that just taking a pill or having a treatment rarely works. At best it’s only a temporary relief.
Alan Wighton is an experienced natural therapist specializing in nutrition. This article is part of the information contained in his book on the changes someone needs to make to remove cancer permanently.

Do You’ve Asbestos Cancer Or Mesothelioma? What It Means For you And Achievable Treatments
Do You’ve Asbestos Cancer Or Mesothelioma? What It Means For you And Achievable Treatments
Article by Willie Lee
Should you happen to be diagnosed with asbestos cancer, or by its clinical expression, mesothelioma, it means you might have a form of cancer that damages the mesothelium which can be a membrane that encases our lungs, chest, abdomen and heart.
The heart is protected by mesothelial tissue that surrounds it and is dubbed the pericardium. The lungs and chest cavity is covered by the pleural mesothlium membrane, and the peritoneum is what covers the abdominal cavity using mesothelial tissue. Asbestos damages every one of these membranous cells, however the most typical is pleural mesothelioma, usually in the advanced stages of this disease the cancer spreads and attacks other areas of the body.
The main reason behind people contracting asbestos cancer or mesothelioma is exposure to asbestos, but it can be brought on by other things, such as exposure to zeolite, which is a chemical also found in asbestos. The worrying thing is how prevalent asbestos is in many materials that around us every day, including cement, roof shingles, flooring, textiles, brake linings and insulation. The asbestos inserts itself via our respiratory system and settles within, making carcinogenic tumors. Individuals in the construction industry need to be especially careful about fighting asbestos, asbestos mine workers, workers at shipyards and mills are the most susceptible to asbestos cancer, thanks to continual exposure to it. It might take as long as 50 years for symptoms to display themselves, but unfortunately once mesothelioma is located the common person will have 1 – 2 years left to live, this is why early detection is important for any hope of treatment.
There are rules established by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) as to the legal amounts of asbestos that can be allowed in the workplace. Anybody who deals with the substance is forced to adhere to strict guidelines and wear protective equipment. Asbestos carried home on clothing has also been shown to affect family members of workers, therefore showers and a change out of protective clothing is demanded before workers can leave the workplace.
Successful treatments of mesothelioma differ greatly depending on many factors, the patient, when it is diagnosed, where it is located and the health of the patient. Quite a few patients will undergo surgery, and then chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Surgery will excise tumors but the normal health of the patient decides how effective this will be. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are both efficient strategies to fight the symptoms, however he side effects from these treatments can cause issues themselves. Anybody who thinks they might have been exposed to asbestos for a long period of time should go in for regular check ups and look out for symptoms that could demonstrate the surfacing of mesothelioma, because remember if you catch the disease early your chances of survival increase dramatically.
