Guest guest Posted June 21, 2000 Report Share Posted June 21, 2000 Hi CB Now that is a coincidence! I too was taking Sulfasalizine, was off it for four months before I too noticed a breast lump. However Tom McCormack stuck a needle in and aspirated bright orange fluid! He looked puzzled, showed it to me and I replied, " Gee that looks like the Sulfasalizine I was taking, so that's where it went! " However my limp lump came back and gave birth, so this time Tom McCormack said, " Right I have had enough of this! " Odd because I was the patient, he the surgeon? He opened me up, removed a cluster of cysts and closed me. I was discharged one hour later. While you are concerned over cancer, perhaps it is a cyst. I am now wondering if Sulfasalizine is responsible, because the colour of the fluid was Sulfasalizine! Love and God Bless Gillian The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Okay. Follow-up to my earlier post... Slept, got up, did errands. Came back, saw some more drainage on the bra (which I do not wear at home, only when I leave the house). I have just taken supplements including another 3,000 mg of vitamin C. I have cut back on the amount of calcium & magnesium citrate powder I was adding to the electrolyte drink, because I am also drinking about 4 cups of soup per day (2 cups with 3 TBSP coconut oil and 1 TBSP butter each time). Pam Maltzman > > Bee, I have had a lump in the left breast for over 10 years. It is just under the breast, near where the breast meets the chest wall. It has been about 1/4 inch in diameter, more or less, for many years. (Some years before that, a small stone came out of the right breast on the underside.) > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also smelled gross. > > I had assumed this was a healing reaction. The timing would be right. I've been on your diet since about last spring. I can't say I've never cheated, but most days I do pretty well sticking to the diet. I've also had some retracing of bronchitis-like symptoms, including chest wall pain where (I was told) I had pleurisy. > > My legs have been somewhat uncomfortable, but nowhere near as bad as they were last year after getting out of the hospital. I still use a cane sometimes, but I am quite able to walk. > > Right now the area is a little reddened, a little sore, and a little warmer than the same area on the right side, underneath that breast. I'm not getting pus out of it right now. > > My question to you is this: Is there anything else I should do for this? I just took some electrolyte drink with some magnesium citrate, some calcium citrate, extra vitamin C in it, and supplements. The total vitamin C I took was 3,000 mg (I just took the supplements I should have taken last night). > > The weather is warming up here, and I've been getting a little discomfort in body folds anyhow. I apologize for the long explanation, but I thought it was necessary to give you some background. +++Hi Pam. It certainly seems as if you are retracing that past lump issue. Good for you! You shouldn't change any supplements on the program, so you should be taking 4,000 mg vitamin C and 1 1/2 teaspoons of ocean sea salt per day anyway (in divided doses of course). The sea salt can be in the Electrolyte Drink or added to foods - either way makes no difference. It is okay to take more vitamin C than 4,000 mg per day short-term to assist your body, but overall just consistently following the diet and taking only the supplements recommended, in the amounts given, is what heals your body most - cheats here and there don't interfere greatly unless you go overboard. That is because you ARE providing your body with what it needs to do its job 99% of the time. Remember " more is not better " in most cases except for short-term assistance. It is better to let Nature take its course and not interfere. You could tape a warm tea bag over the lump for an hour, 2-3 times a day, but don't keep it on too long so air can get to it to help it detoxify and heal. Pau D'Arco is the best kind of tea bag to use, but you could also use chamomile, peppermint, green tea, etc. Keep me posted on what is happening. I read the message you posted this morning too. All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
