unless we are missing part of the story my view is that a certain state of mind can be reached that allows the body to heal itself.
It's not nearly as simple as that, mainly because cancer is a highly varying disease. At its simplest level, cancer is just a bunch of cells that are growing when they're not supposed to be. That means there isn't much for the immune system to target, since it works (mainly) by recognizing foreign material. Even if it could, you're not addressing the usual underlying problem causing cancer, which could range from mutations in the cancerous tissue itself to genetic abnormalities in the extracellular matrix, leading to increades growth hormone production. A better approach than just hoping your body will heal itself would be to utilize immunotherapy of cancers -- something that's already in progress -- or cancer vaccines (my current area of study).
Nevertheless, no matter how natural you want to get about cancer treatment, you're not going to get your immune system to react properly against leukemia and lymphoma. Teriba's current problem is that he doesn't have a useful immune system, so achieving a higher state of mind won't help much.
don't confuse the issue. carrots, juice, and positive thinking. and i think that natural cures book too.
that's all cancer boils down to. now, why did i waste so much time looking at those goddamned janus kinases.
I hate to say this but those first 3 treatments are easy. The fourth one is where it starts to get hard on yah. But the good news is it only lasts for a day or 2 after getting it... kinda like a hangover. You are getting 6 cycles right? They may cut you short on cycles if you are responding well.

But then again everyone is different.
First three were definitely easy, but I've had 9 so far. The chemo I'm on is pretty rough and I'm sick for about 4-5 days after each. I'll be freakin glad when it's over. I have not lived life for the last 6 months. :icon27:
