Cancer cure. What to do after diagnosis? A personal vision of Kees Braam, webmaster of this site.

what would I do if I got cancer the message? A personal letter from the webmaster. Article update 3 February 2012

Cured of cancer:

After 12 years to have managed this site I'm still there and with the year even more convinced that it is possible to cure cancer, even if the diagnosis of incurable and untreatable speaks. There is still no guarantee but there is more possible than many people think if they get the message in the first instance to get cancer. In recent years we have covered experience stories of cancer patients many stories of people who posted by new experimental treatments and/or special diets and certain additional nutrients and meditation and change of lifestyle have made remarkable progress. Often with much better quality of life and clear life extension compared with predictions and statistics.

That it is not always successful despite all efforts will also be clear to everyone. But despite that many cancer patients still die of their disease, and again despite sometimes great commitment and try everything is lost, there are still the fight really promising developments and we want people who continue to provide through this Web site any information which can make good choices. Though it's just a much better quality of life and almost always live longer than predicted.

Of course there is also my own experience of ' cured ' from gediagnosteerde in 1996 to be an incurable and tongue-and throat cancer (see medical file Kees)
But also the experiences of Antoon and Shifra., (unfortunately Shifra november 2001 died, but does not take away the fact that also the approach of her parents still had been worthwhile), are the cornerstone of this site. But also so stories of others, some of which under experiential stories of cancer patients outright miracles seem, but in ' wonders ' from outside without you've done something about it herself I don't believe anymore. There are too many elements in the approach of each individual with which it goes well that match. Antoon has ever a nice lecture on held on an International Congress in Miami. See medical file Antoon.

On the basis of all these experiences and not to forget all the information that we have collected for the content of the site I would personally as I now have the messagecancer would get the following steps. But again the disclaimer is applicable and it is a personal experience and what each does not provide medical advice and there is any his/her personal choice.
And never do anything without consulting a general practitioner, Oncology specialist and/or orthomoleculair doctor. My motto is still that the approach of cancer has the greatest chance of success as regular and alternative views be combined in a joint and expert approach and guidance.

If I could I would get the message now: cancer

Try not to panic.  Weights with react and time for reflection is also a form of dealing with disease. And after the first emotions try concrete and practically with the oncologist/doctor to discuss approach and treatment plan. Though I would try not to suppress my emotions, but also try to share with the people that I have loved and who I trust. And that practical conversation a few days later if necessary to do so. The first thought when the word cancer is often very sick and/or die anyway, but all things considered often prove more opportunities than the doctors initially anyway to tell you.

I would also at the slightest doubt about the opinions and proposals of the physician/oncologist look or it is useful to do a second opinion in a different hospital than where you initially referenced. If you've been in a hospital is a second opinion in an academic hospital bv. advisable. A second opinion in another academic hospital is often less useful because the oncologists often inform each other behind your back to each other and not want to lose weight plus that they work from the directives adopted nationwide. A second opinion seems better than abroad. But also can be a second opinion with an orthomolecular doctor (see addresses of reliable and well qualified doctors under useful addresses) very sensible in my opinion. Every Dutch citizen is entitled to a second and third opinion, even when doctors often also abroad. And is usually reimbursed by your health insurer. But if it is not reimbursed costs no more than € 150, often such a consultation--.

When a treatment proposal both at initial consultation if second opinion would be important for me to know on the basis of which the physician/oncologist basing his plan of attack. If there is bv. chemo is proposed, I would like to know what scientific experiences/investigations have been and what the Statistics say about the chances of success, extension lifespan and especially about the side effects. Oncologists screens always with scientific evidence for effect of nutrition and nutrients but many are absolutely never proven by their chemo's according to the same criteria used and many worried earlier for severe downturn in chemo's quality of life, deterioration of the immune system and often have virtually no effect on the lifespan. So always serious side effects also gives irradiation also many years later.

And that questions for me not only applies to scientific support for chemo, but also for operations, irradiations and alternative methods. The possibility of alone LITT and TACE therapy of a.o.

Dr. Vogl in the University Clinic of Frankfurt at galweg and intestine, liver cancer but also in lung cancer and kidney cancer and other types of cancers are, in my view, spectacular improvements that now also in Belgium and Netherlands in all academic hospitals be applied sparingly. In Utrecht, Leiden and Amsterdam is now regularly applied also with Yttrium-90 RFA and RFA. Arterial Chemo-Embolization and TACE-Trans also becomes more and more applied also in liver tumors from other forms of cancer than just primary liver cancer a radiologist told me last week. But also more and more a hyperthermia is treatment that supplemental irradiation as a lot of good on both chemo can do.

When diagnosed with cancer, I would also read a number of books on cancer , and information about my personal cancer type on internet lookup. E.g. the book of arts-biologist Drs. e. Valstar: ' nutritional intervention in cancer '. A book that also is very good for patients to read and certainly for your physician/oncologist can be a nice question beacon about nutrition and nutrients to support a regular therapy. There is thus a choice you can make together with your oncologist based on recent scientific information. Furthermore, the book ' Living Proof ' of Michael Gearing-Tosh recommendable I find myself (also in the Dutch under the title ' living proof' available. See cancer, and books. . Michael Gearing Tosh is in the summer of 2005 d. but not to his cancer. See for other sources of information on our website under a.o. literature list of arts-biologist Drs. e. Valstar, or search under the form of cancers that you, or look under cancer , complementary and/or below for current information about topical regular research new treatment methods etc. in cancer. I would my physician/oncologist involved as much as possible by bv. print prints of what there is on the internet and found this to take with you to your accompanying physician/oncologist. You can also always ask questions via the email address redactie@kanker-actueel.nl otherwise.

I would also contact orthomoleculair as soon as possible a doctor (see useful addresses) for a consultation about what you as a cancer patient you could contribute to the fight against cancer by means of changing your diet, lifestyle and possibly what you use as extra special nutritional supplements could go. Of course this is a personal thing and opinion, but I personally believe that additional resources the chance of cure larger create and have given me in die or survive. Also see medical file Kees and Wood smuller diet.It may very well be that your doctor/specialist rejects every form of complementary or alternative treatment and ridiculous is trying to make. Unfortunately, there are also such doctors, as there are alternative doctors who swear by resources

which only the costs are clear and proven, but otherwise only chats for birthday parties seem. Fortunately, there are also many doctors and Oncologists who are receptive to them and often like to talk and sometimes even want to cooperate with a orthomolecular physician.
Adekwate and reliable information on reliable alternatives where we have a number of widely used and generally rated as well have additional and alternatives can be found under additional and other alternative treatments and resources .

Unfortunately the KWF and NFK (National Federation cancer patients and should not be confused with the SNFK -National Fund Foundation against cancer) not exactly open and supportive to the wood smuller diet and nutritional supplements. The KWF claims that there is still insufficient scientific evidence that certain foods and certain lifestyle also therapeutic can work. Meanwhile we have so far that they acknowledge that this can have a preventive therapeutic value but is still not recognized by the KWF. The KWF also does almost no research into forms of complementary treatments and means what in our view is definitely a great Miss. Fortunately there is the internet that this is entirely to the puncture. View bv. list of literature, there are now under more than 1,600 scientific, randomized studies and there are hundreds of trials in Japan and America, but also some in o.a. Netherlands into the effects of supplementation and nutrition in cancer. I would me so nothing attract a physician/oncologist who is scornful and I think I just another physician/oncologist would take. Although I realise that especially older people who grew up with the idea that the doctor knows everything and is an authority will be difficult as possible, the conclusions and recommendations of a doctor and oncologist to withdraw or at least clarification into question to ask. But I think then but so, it comes to my life and if I go dead or handicapped hit by a throwing estimation of the maximum of a compassionate doctor gets my family card, but for me it is then too late. Personally, I prefer the heft in hands and make yourself I prefer myself from what good or not good for me. Moreover, on the basis of good, reliable information.

• I would perhaps cancer diagnosis at the psycho-social guidance go searching. (e.g. the Helen Dowling or Guild of Simonton therapists, or other settings that psycho-social assistance, often also specific to cancer patients and their loved ones. See useful addresses or other alternatives
• It is not good handling of stress, but also the emotions that the message can call someone disruptive in cancer in the healing process.
  Stress is one of the most well-known causes of cancer, in addition to poor diet and lifestyle (smoking). Meditation, praying, but also sports and is also proven itself often seem to make a positive contribution to the fight with the cancer. Maybe difficult to read this, and I do not know whether it is true, but it is often said and is also described in many books that cancer patients often closed and people are not so good to express can and dare. In addition, there are often problems at the relational level play or is there something in the years preceding the diagnosis cancer verdrietigs happened. E.g. a separation or die from a partner or other relative.
  
  If I would get the message now cancer I would think to myself, I try to consider what all good plays with me. How is my relationship to each other, how fair I am actually myself, but also to my spouse/family etc.  I switch my own interests and desires not too much extend and adjust I'm not excessive. Or vice versa.
  I know, this all sounds somewhat vague to some, it has nothing to do with cancer, but also perhaps a real honest personal analysis, how painful is also left unspecified remains unchanged in the beginning, better and gives a greater chance at happiness, than yourself fooled and everything tucked away deep. But this is so purely personally, as everything I say is a personal opinion.
  
  If I would have a particular kind of cancer such as colon cancer or a brain tumor or pancreatic cancer then I would agree with us in the first instance look under cancer types and then to the specific type of cancer. Or the type typing cancer in search engine on our home page and you will get a lot of articles on your screen that already obvious in the head of the article the name of the type of cancer has already. That searches be easily and quickly. See further also under other alternatives and research and nutrition.I would like to mention specifically here some special current developments.
  It directly and locally or generally inject with a virus in combination with a form of immunotherapies bv. the Newcastle virus is a new

experimental form of treating cancer, sometimes in combination with dendritic cell therapy and not to forget that we as very promising hyperthermia dare pronounce it. See also the video movies of a number of patients who benefit greatly from ongeneesljik stated particularly mentioned treatments. 9 May 2011 added: Please read the warning for Dr. Robert Gorter and the medical centre Cologne. Dr. Robert Gorter is discredited hit in Germany and Egypt and also we distance ourselves from Dr. Robert Gorter. Click here or below questions for comprehensive explanation why we Dr. Robert Gorter no longer find reliable doctor. The listed treatments, which is also in the MCC are given, are not for us to debate. Below are some frequently asked questions addresses treatment methods such as dendritic cell therapy on wherever you etc. You can obtain.

Also in academic hospitals worldwide is increasing attention given to including dendritic cell therapy and hyperthermia immunotherapies. PDT = Photo Dynamic Therapy also is a form of treatment which are increasingly being applied and not merely by skin cancer but also many other types of cancer already or not in combination with other forms of treatment. Moreover, the operation techniques (including via robot technique) the last years become much, much better and what is seems very important to directly at the first approach of your own to ask to save cancer tumor tissue, deep frozen for possible later use parafine and not in a vaccination programme or other form of immunotherapies. The doctors will not be happy with your question but insist. You have the right. There are many other interesting developments but that are earlier and more detail elsewhere on the site already.
