Hello,
My gal had stage 3c cervical cancer and after several months of radiation and chemo, it appears that we smoked that tumor. Recent PET scans show no activity in the lymph nodes and the tumor itself now sits as a dead infectious mass inside her.
This is the problem, the mass is rotting away inside of her because medical personnel say that they can't remove it. It is ludicrous that a tumor they can access and biopsy in the office can't be LEEPed out in a few swipes, but they say it can't be done
Meanwhile, my gal is suffering as this tumor slowly loses its grip and pushes against a ureter, nerves and anything in its slow way out of her.
A nephrostomy tube was inserted, some nerves are being pinched as her fingers are now numb on one hand and her legs are very painful and the constipation and gas pains she experiences are beyond description.
To accelerate the healing of both the collateral radiation damage and the tumor site by depriving it of its anaerobic environment with oxygenated blood and tissue, she is scheduled for 40 sessions in the hyperbaric chamber.
Brief research looks promising, however, I would appreciate input from anyone familiar with this treatment and its effects on the recovering cancer patients.
Thanks in advance and I hope all are happy and content.
Joe
