Husband was just diagnosed with mass on right upper lobe...cancer with possible

[Guest guest]

We are devastated, confused, dazed and anxious. Been to two hospital for

diagnosis. Latest one, Memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC. Biopsy in St. Barnabus

Hospital found large mass on rt. upper lobe. Sloan Kettering did more scans,

MRI. Found tiny lesion on left parietal lobe of brain, small lesion on rt.

adrenal, small lesion on left lower lobe of lung. He was feeling great, but I

insisted he go for long overdue physical in November. I am an energy

healer/acupuncturist and knew deeply something was wrong. Lots of coughing,

history of lung problems and previous smoking.

Sloan-Kettering wants him to have needle radiation on his brain next Thursday.

They require an additional MRI and want him to be in the hospital for day

surgery for twelve hours. They also want him to take Dexamethasone (strong

steroid) afterwards. Terrible side effects. Just from taking Leviquin for

possible pneumonia, he has had swollen ankles and knee pain for three weeks! I

want to look at the Rife machine and find someone who is adept in N.J. or NY

with using it for cancer. The chemo doctor is checking to see if my husband

could be a candidate for Tarceva...some sort of genetic checking, as it has less

side effects and can possibly cross the blood/brain barrier. NJ hospital only

sent a few of the glass slides and now Sloan says we have to wait weeks for this

to check out.

Husband open to alternatives, but very scared and depressed (beyond belief). I

do acupuncture, compresses, enzymes, adrenal supplementations. Also Health

Kinesiology and Chinese herbs for his constant, dry cough. I want him to wait on

radiation to the brain...

We need support...dazed and frantic!
