[AlternativeAnswers] carcenoma

 

hi!

I am a longstanding member of the group,
on occasion I contribute, but now when in need, one needs outside help.


so here goes...

my mom was diagnosed today with carcinoma in the spine (biopsy), this one- the doctor claims started with breast cancer, and mastasized.
so we understand that it spread pretty badly, we do not yet know exactly how far or what stage cancer this is considered.
the doc wants to do a spet scan, and hormone therapy, and for the pain in the spine - local radiation.

at least for now...

please give me information about the above therepies - should we do them? what are the alternatives...


she wants to go alternative-that is my opinion too (or more precisely I don't want her -or anyone else -to be harmed by chemo etc) , but my brothers are pressuring for conventional.

I am the one standing in the way of letting the doctors do whatever they want and turning my mother into a statistic, so it is up to me to save her - if I can...

the doctors identified me as the one who knows too much, unfortunatly, I feel that I know too little.

she needs my support, and wants it, but if I don't come up with a clear direction + a doctor who will treat her, she will be swayed to allow conventional treatment because of the pain.
so as you see we both need direction.
I need to bring the family proven therapies, and be ready with studies and references so that it is effective...
that is why I am asking help from our group.

here is some additional info (in no particular order):
we live in israel- is there anyone around to treat her here?
age 78

stongwilled- used to being the leader, but now she is in a bad low - that is no surprise

has Parkinson
high blood pressure
no known diabetes
had a cataract operation
no mercury fillings (but all her teeth are implants, I don't know of what metal, could be chrome- I have no way of knowing)
she is in pain, the worst is back pain, but not only there.
she never had a mammogram.
she has no allergies, and as a rule bears pain well.
she is not capable of making food for herself, and I do not live near to help with the type of nutritional help she needs...
organic foods are (unfortunately) not currently an option.

I am taking her (hopefully) to acupuncture -for the pain -tomorrow.


from some the above I infer that there probably is some heavy metal toxicity at the root of the problem.

we need some treatment that is not complicated (or expensive), and will deal with the pain quite quickly. once we gain some confidence of the family we can do more..


thank you!

WHAW - World Homeopathy Awareness Week

 




---In AlternativeAnswers@yahoogroups.com, <yogiguruji@...> wrote :

Good Morning!

World Homeopathy Awareness Week

April 10th - April 16th The father of homeopathy, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, who discovered the law of cure known as "Similia Similibus Curentur", is honored each year at the start of his birthday in order to bring awareness to this amazing form of medicine. Homeopaths, patients and supporters around the world celebrate this invaluable healing science that has transformed millions of lives. Homeopathy is the second most widely used system of medicine in the world. 


Homeopathy Works!

Homeopathy seeks to stimulate the body's defense mechanisms and processes so as to prevent or treat illness. It stimulates a person's immune system and body's natural defenses. Homeopathy not only offers relief from temporary disorders but, can provide long term healing. 

Homeopathics are created by taking the remedy: a plant, mineral, chemical, or animal substance, diluting it in water and shaking it vigorously. The more it is sequentially diluted and shaken, the more potent the medicine. This is why minuscule doses are used.

"Like cures Like". Here are some perfect examples:

* A full strength dose of Ipeca will cause vomiting. 
In a very diluted dose, it becomes a remedy to control nausea and vomiting. 

* Coffee before bed will generally cause a sleepless night. 
In an infinitesimal dose, it is used to treat insomnia. 

*A large dose of sodium sulfate will characteristically provoke diarrhea. 
An infinitesimal or homeopathic dose can cure that same type of diarrhea.

In general, the first session with a homeopath is for him/her to get to know your genetic heritage, lifelong health history, body type, psychological type, and present symptoms. The homeopath will ask many questions which seem out of the norm from a conventional doctor, but you must remember, his job is to consider your "whole" person.

He will ask questions like:
1. What time of day is your energy highest and lowest?
2. What type of weather or temperature do you love, hate?
3. How are you affected by being in the mountains, seashore?
4. What foods do you crave, are averse to, irritated by?
5. What position do you sleep in?
6. What dreams do you remember?
7. How does motion or lying down affect you?
There are hundreds of remedies with homeopathy as well as other modalities that employ the same theory called the Doctrine of Signatures. Start by looking at Avoiding the Antidotes. These are the contraindications when taking homeopathic remedies. Check Determining Dosage to understand how to take homeopathic remedies. Match Signs and Symptoms in order to choose the Best Homeopathic Remedy. Homeopathy is a profound and great integrative therapy that can be used in conjunction with many other forms of health care.

Homeopathic remedies can complement conventional drugs. There are no contraindications and no known side effects. 


Avoiding the Antidotes

Homeopathic remedies are powerful remedies but they work in such small doses that they can easily be compromised! According to Classic Homeopathy, the following antidotes should be avoided:

Avoid heat, light, moisture. 
Keep homeopathic remedies tightly sealed in a cool, dark place. The steam in your bathroom may not be a safe place for them. Consider an area outside of the medicine chest.

Refrain from mint.
Mint or peppermint toothpaste, mint in your ice tea or mint chocolate chip ice cream should all be avoided during the time you are using homeopathic remedies.

Avoid Aromatics.
Menthol, camphor, tiger balm and perfume can neutralize homeopathic remedies. 

Don't touch.
Pour the remedy pills from the bottle into the cap. Then pour them under your tongue. The oil from your hands can affect them.

Not with meals.
Take one half hour before eating or one to two hours after.

Don't chew or swallow.
Dissolve homeopathic pellets under the tongue. They absorb quickly into the bloodstream this way. Homeopathic drops can be taken the same way or in a glass of water.

Avoid stimulants.
Avoid smoking, coffee and caffeine especially within 30 minutes of taking homeopathic remedies.
