Thank you so much for posting this. It really makes me feel I made the right decision in refusing chemo as have several articles and things I had read since my decisions,

I wonder if these people who lived longer did nothing or alternative health and dietary changes as well.

it gives me hope that even though I mess up and don't yet do all I want to do, I am still helping to prolong the date if any my cancer returns ..they said it will and that messes with your mind being told you will definitely die before your time but I believe in my heart of heart this was the right thing to do even though the pressure from doctors and family was tremendous which is apparently quite common for people who turn down standard of care.

I also noted in the article you posted how those getting mastectomy lived as long as those with mastectomy. I was told noone would do a lumpectomy this time as I could not have radiation as had it 20 years ago but I found someone to do what I wanted and subsequent and previous tests proved there was no cancer in the lymph nodes which I refused to remove and in the rest of the breast and clean margins so if I listened to them, it would have all been for nothing and I might now have lymphedema and impaired immune system and no breast..thankfully I don't have these things as I was according to them the "only one they ever had in 35 years who did not do everything they said." freak that I seemed to be to them.

They continually made errors and told me falsehoods when a complication of surgery developed and finally after at least 2 dozen lies they admitted, we really don't knwo how to handle this or what is going on as we never had anyone not get radiation or chemo after surgery so you are new territory for us. I seemed to know more than them and researched myself to try to impress upon them they rules were not done by many doctors in their own field to try to get what I wanted and needed, it did not give me a lot of confidence to hear them insisting this or that would or would not happen only to find out they did not know what they were doing. I have suffered permanent physical harm thanks to their errors of judgment.

The doctors were very anger at my choices especially one who agreed to do ht I wanted and felt safest with, made me wait 5 weeks and then dropped me a few days before surgery.

The one who did the lumpctomy 5 weeks later made sure to tell all those who came with me to the hosp[ital that removing just the lump was not what she wanted at all even though one of the people I barely knew and maybe I did not want all this discussed in front of her apparently got very upset over what doctor said and my decision (my sons girlfriend I had just meet) and the doctor seemed angry and defensive despite my relatives being there even though I kept my mouth shut as I did not want her mad when cutting into my body:) I thought we had some privacy rights in this country for the doctor to blab all my concerns in front of everyone present.

To know that I could have done both of these surgical removals had I not been well read and strong in my convictions makes me feel sick and wonder how many might have been in my shoes and did these things for nothing and suffered the consequences and suffered needlessly.

I feel though even though so many I have met or heard of do what doctors say, that there will come a day when people won't just do this but try alternative first and it will be thanks to people like you who let them know the facts and people who show us the way and share their knowledge.

On other health sites, there is strong hostility to those believing in natural healing but here I feel I am with kindred spirits and among wise people.

I am sure the day will come when people don't listen to the fear and the uninformed even if they are doctors so much.

Sometimes I beat myself up that I am not doing all I wish I could do and that I mess up but this article reminds me on some things very important, I followed through and I did something that really will help me and I am not poisoned right now or anguishing over the loss of my breast which I did not want..the doctor yelled at me even though I did standard of care 19 years ago researching in the medical libraries for 6 months and deciding on lumpectomy with radiation when it returned which was equal to mastectomy..the surgeon said to me..if you have not made the wrong choice back them you would not be here now abut you had to keep your breast (in a demeaning tone).

This seems to me someone very uneducated as cancer can return even if the breast is gone and these treatments were equal to removing my breast in his peers eyes. It very well might have been the radiation that caused this more aggressive cancer and I was even told that when they did it. Who knows what getting more radiation than normal did to my health. i feel I had a parathyroid tumor which causes nearly every thing I have and they told me this could affect the glands in my neck so maybe that is a reason I suffered all these years.

The sad thing is they can get away with doing brain damage etc to people as some of this doe snot show up for a while..my ant had dementia and they radiated her brain. I did not know this till recently and here is my cousin thinking chemo and radiation is the greatest thing since sliced bread due to her surviving years after but noone seemed to connect the dementia to the bran radiation and I have since discovered this is a common side effect of that.

People do not connect their ills to the treatments that are so dangerous and this allows them to feel they are doing good instead of harm like they are for the most part doing.

When one in my position of having aggressive cancer who is sometimes scared did I make the wrong decision reads something like what you posted, it makes them feel no I made an excellent decision and I could e so much worst if not for going outside the box. It validates this rare choice of forgoing chemo and/or radiation or even surgery (although I chose to do minimal surgery as my tumor was large.

It makes me wonder if even though my blood Sugar is really high and maybe insulin or drugs might lower it, would this hurt me more in the long run as I don't feel these unnatural cures that last a lifetimes are the best choice nor do I think they are good for us. even though I still have it, is it really better to have it lower if it is through these things that are more like a bandaid.

Great article..I hope it is read far and wide. I feel it is one that needs to be recognized. Your post not only warns someone the consequences or dangers, it also helps to validate what is often a had decision to not do it when everyone thinks such a person is crazy or has a death wish.
