Trauma Induced Tumors and Somatostatin

[Guest guest]

Greetings,

About 2-1/2 years ago I was working in my garden and a heavy rake

handle hit me in the chest just above my left breast. I small lump

formed and I figured it was just a hematoma. Several months later,

after a mammogram, I was told to go get a biopsy. (Sure wish I had

known then what I know now; I might not have gotten one.) After the

biopsy, the lump started growing and has kept on growing since then.

I have tried many different cancer alternative therapies since then

but except for a short while with cesium chloride, which quit

working, the mass has continued to grow.

I don't know if the trauma started this whole chain of events, but I

decided to google " trauma induced tumor " and was reading about

somastatin In one study titled " Somatostatin Analogs for Diagnosis

and Staging of Tumors " by t Dinh M.D. and Milos Janicek M.D.,

Ph.D. date March 8, 1994, was written " A miscellaneous group of

tumors exhibiting somatostatin receptors comprises breast and lung

carcinoma. Fifteen percent of breast cancer have showed somatostatin

receptors on their surface. "

I am wondering if my tumor falls into this group. Does anyone have

any experience with this type of tumor, diagnosing it or treatment

for it? If so, I would greatly appreciate guidance to some

additional sources of information or people I could talk with.

Thanks very much,

Cheryl
