Yeah,

The mms stuff scares me off especially during chemo. Chlorine molecule is a concern.

You picked two awsome therapies already. Better than most.

DMSO during chemo is so important if there aren't any sulphur allergies.

Here are some research articles that your Father can read and become an informed patient, the proof is in the pudding. DMSO makes chemo less harsh, more effective and most oncologist will be using it in a year!

Here is an excerpt from case histroy of a woman who underwent years of chemo, had numerous reoccurrences, Most of her chemo was peritoneal washes and in the end she became so sick from these therapies that a new approach was needed, her blood cells counts were terrible, she vomitted, couldn't even drink water. So, here is what here doctors decided to do:

During the Month of February we did the planning for the incorporation of DMSO. This ended up becoming a major challenge. Dr. Marchetti was willing to do it, but very little clinical information existed on the use of DMSO with chemotherapy in humans. There were some very interesting and encouraging articles on rats, though. The stuff is very safe and, in fact, is used to store human blood cells for bone marrow transplants. We did a lot of research & came in contact with Dr. Stanley Jacob who has done pioneering work with DMSO. He gave us a lot of encouragement and talked to our doctor about dosage. We also talked to a research pharmacist in California who had encountered a few cases where DMSO had been mixed with chemo drugs.

On February 20, 1997 Pamela had her first intraperitoneal treatment with DMSO dissolved in VP-16. Simultaneously, Ifosfomide was administered IV. The observable response was quite remarkable. Pamela's toxicity during the course of treatment was markedly diminished. Even more significant, her recovery after chemo was noticeable improved. Particularly her white count, which only dropped to 2200 in the days following treatment when they had previously fallen to 1000 or lower. She only needed 3 days of neupogen before it shot back up to 15,000. And this was after 11 earlier courses of intense, immune-depressing treatments. We have no way to evaluate the primary goal of the DMSO use, since there is no control or DSRCT blood tests to run. But the dramatic reduction in standard side effects of chemotherapy was reason enough to recommend it. We would certainly do it again. We only wish we had been able to incorporate the DMSO in the earlier treatments. The only negative side effect was the strong smell of garlic. Dr. Marchetti didn't visit in the room very long during these treatments.

Pamela's final intraperitoneal+DMSO treatment was given in May , 1997. Blood tests and CT scan done in June were all clear. Another CT scan was done in September, which also read normal and a PET scan done on November 28, 1997 came back good and negative.

Now it's just a waiting game and periodic testing. We keep our fingers crossed and the Essiac tea flowing. Dr. Marchetti is very optimistic about Pamela's outlook. We know we can't rest for several years, at least, but no matter what happens, Pamela has been very fortunate in her amazing response and wonderful medical support. She must also be given personal credit for an amazing strength of will and character. It also didn't hurt that that her blood and immune system must have been built by the same people who put together the "Terminator." No one can believe she went through all this without blood transfusions.


Good Luck.
