Here is a site with articles and links about cancer that may help you.

http://www.shineonhealth.com/hoxsey.php

You might have to copy and paste it into the address bar.

Also, I read that Johanna Budwig successfully treated cancer with flax seed oil and cottage cheese. The Omega 3 in the flax seed oil and the Omega 6 in the cottage cheese helped increase the oxygen and cancer occurs in an oxygen poor environment so increasing the oxygen is a good thing.

There are other things you can do. Jason Winters tea is a good tea to take and they have a website. Do a search.

I hope this helps you.

Cheryl

Ignore snakeoil sales pitches - to find out about HER and its relevance to you, have a look at this site :

Hello,

Best wishes. Apparently you are not aware that Budwig is a doctor as well. You can do a search. I pulled this up, but there are other things you can study.

Dr Johanna Budwig diet
Cancer, Arthritis, Multiple sclerosis, Psoriasis, Eczema, Acne, ...

Flaxseed oil and cottage cheese

Six time nobel award nominated doctor says this essential nutrient combination actually prevents and cures cancer!

by Robert Willner, M.D.,Ph.D.
(author of "The Cancer Solution").

I[i] get no commissions and have no attachment to Dr. Budwig....I am simply passing on health information I have learned in my own searches. I have studied a lot for my own information and health. [/i]

Best wishes,
Cheryl

When a person asks a specific question - in this case about HER - it does not help to suggest they look at something totally unrelated. What they want is an answer or an indication of where to find information.

If they had asked about alternative treatments, dietary handling or any of the other possible topics under which Budwig's therapy can be lumped, then fine, answer accordingly. That's all.

Rose, it means that your cancer is not fueled by hormones. I am triple negative. After chemo, there is no more treatment for us; however, that being said, negative hormones respond better to chemo, as they are aggressive cells and chemo's purpose is to go after fast growing, aggressive cells.

As for cottage cheese and flax oil. I have to smile. I can't believe that some people really believe this stuff. If it were that simple, there would be no more cancer in this world. Many blessings.

Ironically when I asked my onco about Flax seed and Soy, I was told, absolutely NOT. A couple ladies who are er/pr- were told NO to Soy as well.

You're so right, if only it was as easy as Cottage Cheese and Flax Oil.

Her2 - is a good thing to be. Even though they are using Herceptin as 1st line of treatment these days, it's still better to be negative, so that's one less thing you have to take.

I also had FEC if you have any questions, but sounds like you're doing great Smile
