July 2011 I elected to have surgery, so more tests

Surgery was scheduled for August 4.

So I had this radioactive seed test thingy done.  They put these radioactive seeds in the breast tissue, close to the arm pit.  My lump was on the left side below the nipple.  Then I had to sit for about an hour to let the radiation start moving into the lymph system.  Then I sat under a scope and they took x-rays.  They were looking for the "sentinel nodes" in that part of the lymph system.  During surgery to remove the lump, my gal surgeon was also going to remove two sentinel nodes and have them biopsied to see if the cancer had moved into the lymph system.  Really interesting test, not too painful.  And... don't need to ever do that again.

A funny thing happened on the way back from lunch - July 2011

So, I'm taking the MMS to kill the cancer bugs, building up to 3 drops 8 times a day.  I was somewhere in the process and hit a wall of pathogens that my system could not deal with.

The MMS works like an ocean wave.  You take a few drops and it goes just so far into your system killing pathogens.  Then you take another dose and it is like the wave coming in again, as the tide is rising, and it goes a little further into the system killing more pathogens.  When you are sick, at some point, it will hit the cliffs and overload your system trying to kill the pathogens, and you end up with diarrhea and severe nausea. So, you back off on the dose until you are stable, then start increasing it again.

Well, one day, coming back from lunch, you guessed it!  I crapped my pants.  AND on top of it, my jeans were WHITE!!!!  Lovely.  Fortunately, I had a jacket which I wrapped around my ass, headed into the building, went straight for the bathroom and made a real mess.  I emailed my co-worker on my ithingy to have one of the gals bring me my purse and car keys and went home and took a shower.  Yes, I went back to work.  Cuz, other than the fiasco, I felt fine.

Back to June 2011 - Hummmm. What to do?

So, I went and talked to a really sweet gal who is a really excellent breast surgeon.  She explained everything to me, what all my options were and recommended some other doctors I needed to go talk to and get set up for chemo, radiation and drugs. You know, standard fair.  Surgery and treatment depends on if it moved into the lymph nodes.

I went and talked to a radiologist.  He was from India and a real jerk; insisted that if I did not have radiation I was going to die.  He's from India for Christ's sake.  He should know about aruvedic medicine. Left that office and never looked back.

I went and talked to an oncologist.  He insisted that if I did not take the tamoxifan drugs that I would die within a few years as the cancer would come back.  I said no thanks, left and never looked back.

I went and talked to a plastic surgeon about reconstruction, just in case.  He was very nice, old school and did a wonderful job of explaining options.  I did learn that, some Congress Women and Women Senators got laws passed so that for the rest of my life I can have plastic surgery on both sides to make them match and insurance had to cover it.  Good to know.

Talked to a really nice medical professional who turned me on to some natural medicine cures, Chaga mushrooms and MMS.  I purchased both and started using them immediately and I started
researching.

I just re-read all my posts

There's a lot of stuff I posted.  he he.

Yep, I'm still doing Irish Dancing, not as vigorously tho.  Have not done belly dancing in over a year.  Hope to get back to it one day tho.  I'm still slaving at the same job.

'Member the vaxes I talked about?  The refrigerator sized ones?  Well they finally went out the door a few weeks ago to the dump in Denver.  We are not off VMS tho, just moved it to a VM machine.  As the son put it, we crammed 3 refrigerators into a microwave.  Pretty accurate actually.  We still have a microvax named SMAUG, named after the dragon in the Hobbit.  Smaug crashed last week.  My daughter's comment was "nasty hobbitses".

She and I gained all the weight back and are on another 'lose it' trek.  Cycles and cycles, and repeats and repeats.  Keeps us busy...

So, rewind to June 2011

Found a lump while showering several months earlier, had been watching it and decided to find out what it was.  I knew in my gut it was cancer.

For the past 20 years I had been suffering from sebaceous type cysts.  Had the cysts aspirated 3 times over the years.  I think this all stems from falling asleep on the floor on my stomach, and my left breast was soooo asleep that it was actually flat and hurt like hell when I woke up. Took it several hours for it to loosen back up and quit hurting.  This was about 1986 ish time frame.  Anyway, went in for a mamogram, ultra sound and biopsy and yes it was cancer.

Long time no blog...

Here it is two years later...

I have taken a turn in a new direction.  Spiritual Coaching.  Hummmmm.... that sounds interesting.  I start on this trek very soon.

Done

Here it is a year later and I finally have my Level III Bach Flower final test turned in. Talk about draging butt!!! Hopefully I'll get a positive answer in about 8 weeks.
