The remission of mesothelioma is possible?

Mesothelioma, even after decades of medical research, is one of the most aggressive and least treatable of all cancers.

However, very small percentage of patients in remission, others are part of mesothelioma, and I can report cases of two, an anecdotal (but I saw the film), and the medical literature.

Dr. Demetrio Sodi Pallares, who lived from 1913-2003, was electrocardiologist to his time as leader in the world. AProfessor at UCLA, Michigan, and Baylor medical schools, was the author of twelve books and over 300 articles in medical journals.

In 1960, Dr. Sodi, as he preferred to be called, was on the faculty of Baylor Medical College with the pioneer of bypass surgery, Dr. Michael DeBakey. Competitive with DeBakey, Sodi, an alternative method "to avoid bypass surgery and requires a minimum perfect drug.

During a bypass surgery is something that everyone knows everythingthe world, Dr. Sodi of the glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) infusion method was considered valid only by the American Heart Association has recognized 53 years after he has developed, even if it is used in 11 countries today. Dr. Sodi, of course, was encouraged to return to his native Mexico City at the age of 65 years. Dr. DeBakey is still on the faculty and by 100-7 in September 2008.

Back in Mexico, Dr. Sodi (to the dismay of his wife) has built a medical practice of its pool and gardensand opened its doors to desperate patients who had no money. One of his patients had mesothelioma.

Dr. Sodi was more or less learned by chance that the successful treatment of heart disease sometimes causes a remission of cancer. 1980, a construction worker with mesothelioma, treatment has been given exemption from the public hospital is in, after the order laboratory and x-rays, Dr. Sodi has set up a program in three phases:

Avoid all foods are salt andpreserved with salt.

Eating 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day.

And be sure to take a nap of 3 hours 5 days a week,

The snooze button that you experience one type of magnetic mattress regularly today for the treatment of back pain.

This is not the type of therapy that would be a medical school you get to keep active, you can reach after 65 years. It 'was just that simple. Dr. Sodi tax? Zero.

I was a guest of the house of Dr. Sodi about 15 years later. He showedmy movies of the decline and then disappear pleural effusions, and I was "on these and many other patients. What was striking about this man except that he was in a polluted environment of the function of Mexico City, that his skin was very pink . You can, but nothing to do with forgiveness, but it was remarkable.

So, what should I expect someone will read this post to take away from my story?

Well, is not the only story to recoverythere. Others are scientifically documented.

While I had great confidence in the integrity of Dr. Sodi and again, has built a case study in a free clinic for an abandoned pool in a yard in front of doctor does not really rise to the level of scientific evidence.

But it is consistent with some knowledge on the prevention of mesothelioma will write in a later post. If 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day is good, incidentally, does not mean that 20 would be be better. And 'obviously an upper limit to the usefulness of nutrition in prevention and, where appropriate, assist mesothelioma, as we shall see in a later post.

If all these tests have found the answer, I would not post. But the fact is, a carefully documented adoption of mesothelioma has been documented in medical literature.

Dr. Roger KA Allen of Wesley Medical Center in Brisbane, Australia during a woman of 61 years, with documented> Mesothelioma who went into remission within a few months, and for many years he remained in remission. (You can find the full text of "publication Apparent spontaneous complete regression of a multifocal malignant mesothelioma of the pleura, here.)

Dr. Allen noted that he treated over 600 patients with mesothelioma and that there are more steps in the biopsy to ensure that the woman (1) had mesothelioma, and (2) went into remission without treatment, all.

Without treatment, wrote Dr. Allen is not alternative medicine, no change in diet, and no prayer - but it seems unlikely that it could really change for these variables. The Australian woman has been in remission for five years, when the document was published in 2007.

And there are also people who are in remission who have mesothelioma was not, but they lived a very long time. The Royal Brompton Hospital in London reported a> Patients / year Mesothelioma cut in remission for six, then had to have a single tumor, and then another six years, lived twelve total, and was still alive at the time was published in the newspaper. (You can extract from the report can be read here.)

Mesothelioma is a serious disease, but not entirely without hope. Do not count yourself.
