Guest guest Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Hi, Toni and Ar, You do not need a oncologist to prescribe LDN. You can ask your family doctor who understands LDN to do so.

I'm interested in finding out what you learn about local oncologists prescribing LDN. Best of luck to you. ar > > , I have spent the last couple of hours reading the transcript and additional info on ALA and LDN and your story about your husband and his use of silverton. Were you able to use the ALA and/or LDN on your husband? > > I have colon cancer with mets to liver & lungs and am highly interested in finding out where IV ALA might be obtained. Would a naturopath be the proper place to begin looking? Im in Orlando. My onco might be willing to prescribe the LDN, but I'm not sure. > > Thank you. > > Toni D.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Hi, Ar, your doctor is crazy. Do not go down another 30 points in Cholesterol. I heard that too low cholesterol (under 160) may increase the risk of cancer. Jim In a message dated 5/30/2010 8:32:02 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, arlynsg@... writes: Hi , Doctors are funny. My cholesterol was always very high. Three years after going vegetarian, it finally dropped to below 200. Currently it's around 160 (total) and my doctor wants it down another 30 points. Is he crazy? It's perfect right where it is. If I was a meat-eating couch potato that feasted at Mcs every night, then that would be one thing. But that's not me. Sorry about the goiter. I had one when my sub-acute thyroiditis happened. I guess there's not much you can do about it. Meanwhile, can you take a little bit of synthetic T4 to raise your T4 level?

Of course, she's the twit that practically turns herself inside out when she sees how low my LDL cholesterol is ... says she wishes SHE had those numbers (59). Little moron has no clue about the inverse relationship between low cholesterol and cancer. Dohhhhhh! I've had one ever since I had Graves ... > > xxoo > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Jim, Yeah, I just laughed at him. I asked him how I was supposed to achieve this ridiculous goal. He told me to eat fish. I reminded him that I am quite allergic to fish and a vegetarian. He told me to get 30 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week. I reminded him that I am not able to exercise that much due to a connective tissue disease. He is actually a good doctor, and I'm glad I have him. But, I think a healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle should come before numbers on a chart. My father and sister have very high cholesterol, too. We all went to the same doctor for many years and he put them on cholesterol lowering medications. I asked him why he didn't offer them to me and it was because of my healthy lifestyle. Nowadays, my father brags about his low cholesterol while he continues to eat junk food. I'm not sure if he has actually been helped much. Of course, I'm the one that ended up with cancer. So, there you go. ar > > Hi, Ar, your doctor is crazy. Do not go down another 30 points in > Cholesterol.
