Re: [cancercured] Re: Attn Lori -- Need to talk to patients that were treated successfully w/ alter

Hi Lori -- I have what is no doubt a question that is springing from ignorance of medical terms.  You said: "The final report said my 2 tumors, 2.7 cm and 1.6 cm were 1 @1 x 1 x 2 cm."
Can you say that again in just simple words?  Does it mean there were 2, but there ended up being only 1, and it was 1 x 1 x 2 cm?  And the sizes of the 2 (2.7 and 1.6 cm) -- were those the 3 dimensions, cubed, or just 1 side, or what?  Sorry to be dense, but the doctors are sort of doing this same thing with me -- one time they say it is one size, and the next time they give me 3 dimensions, so I have no idea how to compare --- and you seem to have figured it out.  Thanks.  Jan

Jill,
I too was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. My family has cancer history but not Breast cancer history. In Feb. I started life style changes, eatting 90% raw foods and exercising at least 3 times a week. I drank essiac tea 3 oz 3 times a day. I also drank the baking soda, no sweetener and taste is hard to swallow but do it anyways. 3 days before my surgery I had an ultrasound. My 2 tumors had doubled in size. In only 3 months. I did not know that the tumors would enlarge before they explode and your body would eleminate them. I was scared. I had my mastectomy May 31st. I enjoyed my time off from work but I would not have had the surgery if I had known all the facts. The final report said my 2 tumors, 2.7 cm and 1.6 cm were 1 @1 x 1 x 2 cm. Listen to the knowledgable people on this site. I have learned more about life here. Thank your boyfriend for caring. My fried did the same thing for me. You know someone cares when they want you to live. Stay focused on
the end result...a healthy life in one piece.
