29 day fast official ultrasound results: Yes, it grew.
Ok...got the results of my ultrasound and here they are, preceded by a retrospective of results:
March 28, 2003 (a year before I started my MC): Large cystic mass which appears to be separate from the ovaries (ovaries intact, normal size uterus and endometrial wall). Dimensions: 15cm X 7cm X 10.7cm. Origin can not be found. Was placed in the special interest file at the radiology lab.
April 13, 2004 (day 9 of my Master Cleanse): Large cystic mass which still appears to be separate from the ovaries (ovaries intact, normal size uterus and endometrial wall). Dimensions: 15.5cm X 8.1cm X 14.7cm. The radiologist recommended a further CT scan to try and determine the origin of the cyst (they question whether it is ovarian because my ovaries are intact, but can't figure out where it started).
May 6, 2004 (day 3 off of the 29 day Master Cleanse): Large cystic mass which still appears to be separate from the ovaries (ovaries intact, but the endometrial wall is slightly larger than average). Dimensions: 19.4cm X 9.9cm X 16.7cm. The radiologist really wants to see the results of a CT scan or MRI for a more definitive diagnosis and better localization. He questions whether I might have Hyperplasia (thickened endometrial (uterine) wall). Note, I was a day before my period that time, and the endometrial wall usually thickens at that point.
Essentially, in volume, it has grown from 1.8 liters (imperial equivalent 1 litre is close to one quart), to 3.2 liters. One gallon is 3.8 liters. Imagine!
This doesn't shock me at all. In fact the growth of the cyst could be an indication that a great deal of detox has indeed happened. It's just like breaking out in pimples (many pimples are actually facial or bodily cysts) or boils. The cyst acts as a temporary reservoir for toxins, and it eventually dissipates.
Considering that I had all of those other health benefits (elimination of asthma, normalized blood pressure, clear, soft skin, fibromyalgia and fatigue gone, and the loss of over 100 liver/gallstones) I know that the 29 days did a ton of good...way more than I thought would happen. Now that my liver is clearer, I think it can finally do it's job in assisting the cleansing more effectively.
Because I released stones up until the last day, and because my cyst is still a crazy size (really, the size of a basketball!), I have decided to start another fast. This one will be the Breuss Juice program and it lasts 42 days (details are on curezone:
//www.curezone.org/diseases/cancer/breuss.asp ).
Since I started this journey with a long Master Cleanse, I'll keep posting here to give you all the results. I figure that another 42 days' wait couldn't hurt. If it doesn't shrink by the end of this fast, then I'll have to figure something else out. Maybe consider surgery, but that is an absolute last resort.
Wish me luck, guys! I'm starting tomorrow.
