<p>Once you have read my <em>&#8220;Cancer-Free(Second or Third Edition)&#8221;</em>book, I am available for additional coaching. I have learned two lessons after five and one half years of coaching like this:</p>
<p>First, only telephone coaching works. There is too much gained from interaction with the cancer patient or his/her loved one. E-mails just don&#8217;t work. Here&#8217;s an example from a lady in Curacao in the Netherlands Antilles:</p>
<p>&#8220;<em>Dear Bill,</em></p>
<p><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Many thanks for spending the time the other day – I felt it was extremely valuable. Having read your book so long ago, it was also a good refresher to get me back on track. . I have chased the suppliers of the vitamins and will also purchase the Cellect. Thereby, I will be taking all the vitamins you recommend, plus the FO/CC, Cellect and apricot kernels. I will make an appointment next week for t<span id="more-126"></span>he panoramic x-ray of my teeth and send it off. I will order &#8220;The Emotion Code.&#8221; I am seriously thinking of declining chemotherapy if it is offered to me.</em></p>
<p><em><br />
</em>
<p><em>What I felt was most valuable to me with your coaching call was that it gave me hope to carry on with the alternative treatment. I was starting to doubt it after the last progression of my disease. I can see some of the things I have been doing wrong and plan to correct them.</em></p>
<p><em><br />
</em>
<p><em>You provide a fantastic service Bill and give us all hope! I believe in your therapy and hope to be one of the long term survivors. I will keep in touch.</em></p>
<p><em><br />
</em>
<p><em>Very best regards and I wish you a terrific 2009.</em></p>
<p><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>Mandy<br />(Yvonne Sherwin – Ruyssenaers)&#8221;</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Second, the first call usually lasts about 90 minutes. Almost always, additional calls when questions come up are needed by the &#8220;coachee.&#8221; Often these are &#8220;time-sensitive.&#8221;</p>
<p>In short, a lot of my time is required to do an adequate job of explaining to you, the cancer patient, or your loved one exactly &#8220;what I would do if I were you.&#8221;</p>
<p>Understand that as a mere &#8220;reporter,&#8221; I can&#8217;t give individual recommendations to the people I talk to in this way. I am not a medical professional. I can simply answer questions about the regimen recommended in my book and discuss the probable causes of the cancer based on the patterns I&#8217;ve seen in talking like this to about 3,000 cancer patients.</p>
<p>If that appeals to you, please click below to pay the $180 fee for this service. This fee can be paid by either credit card, PayPal or check. Your statement will show a charge by &#8220;ClickBank.&#8221; I receive immediate notification of your purchase from ClickBank.</p>
<p>This fee covers unlimited calls to me and my return calls to you at any time during your cancer experience. Once you have paid the fee, you will be told how to contact me. There will be an &#8220;800&#8243; number for those of you in the U.S. For those outside the U.S., there will be another number for you to call. I am in the Pacific Time Zone of the U.S. (GMT minus 8 hours.)</p>
<p>If you contact me by e-mail and give me a phone number and time to call you, be sure to use the password you will be given in the &#8220;Subject&#8221; line of your e-mail and tell me what time zone you are in.</p>
<p>I want to help you recover complete health. Please feel free to use this service whenever you have questions about any of the information in my book.</p>
<p> </p>

<p><strong>Here once more to deliver information you might on treatment removal for kidney cancer.</strong></p>
<p><strong>This reaserch was done for you out of love and to give the best information out there.</strong></p>
<p><strong>If you have found this info interensting you might be interested in reading more about the cancer remover program</strong></p>
<p><strong>Staging</strong></p>
<p>To plan the best treatment, the doctor needs to know the stage (extent) of the disease. The stage is based on the size of the tumor, whether the cancer has spread and, if so, to what parts of the body.</p>
<p>Staging may involve imaging tests such as an ultrasound or a CT scan. The doctor also may use an MRI. For this test, a powerful magnet linked to a computer makes detailed pictures of organs and blood vessels.</p>
<p>Doctors describe kidney cancer by the following stages:</p>
<p><span id="more-123"></span>
<ul>
<li>
<p><strong>Stage I</strong> is an early stage of kidney cancer. The tumor measures up to 2 3/4 inches (7 centimeters). It is no bigger than a tennis ball. The cancer cells are found only in the kidney.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Stage II</strong> is also an early stage of kidney cancer, but the tumor measures more than 2 3/4 inches. The cancer cells are found only in the kidney.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Stage III</strong> is one of the following: The tumor does not extend beyond the kidney, but cancer cells have spread through the lymphatic system to one nearby lymph node; or The tumor has invaded the adrenal gland or the layers of fat and fibrous tissue that surround the kidney, but cancer cells have not spread beyond the fibrous tissue. Cancer cells may be found in one nearby lymph node; or The cancer cells have spread from the kidney to a nearby large blood vessel. Cancer cells may be found in one nearby lymph node.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Stage IV</strong> is one of the following: The tumor extends beyond the fibrous tissue that surrounds the kidney; or Cancer cells are found in more than one nearby lymph node; or The cancer has spread to other places in the body such as the lungs.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Recurrent cancer</strong> is cancer that has come back (recurred) after treatment. It may come back in the kidney or in another part of the body.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Treatment</strong></p>
<p>Many people with kidney cancer want to take an active part in making decisions about their medical care. They want to learn all they can about their disease and their treatment choices. However, shock and <u>stress</u> after the diagnosis can make it hard to think of everything they want to ask the doctor. It often helps to make a list of questions before an appointment. To help remember what the doctor says, people may take notes or ask whether they may use a tape recorder. Some also want to have a family member or friend with them when they talk to the doctor-to take part in the discussion, to take notes, or just to listen.</p>
<p>The doctor may refer the patient to a specialist, or the patient may ask for a referral. Specialists who can give the best treatment removal for kidney cancer include doctors who specialize in diseases of the urinary system (urologists) and doctors who specialize in cancer (medical oncologists and radiation oncologists).</p>
<p>Thanks again for taking time and reading, and remember there is always hope.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>All the best.</p>

<p>I have been doing research on cancer on many ways and for many years.</p>
<p>I have found out that for cancer breast reoval doctors usually prefer surgery.</p>
<p>On the the free site breastcancer.org the various ways of cancer breast removal are reported as following</p>
<p>Lumpectomy, also known as breast-conserving surgery, is the removal of only the tumor and a small amount of surrounding tissue.<br />Mastectomy is the removal of all of the breast tissue. Mastectomy is more refined and less intrusive than it used to be because in most cases, the muscles under the breast are no longer removed.<br />Lymph node removal, or axillary lymph node dissection, can take place during lumpectomy and mastectomy if the biopsy shows that breast cancer has spread outside the milk duct. Some people qualify for the less-invasive sentinel lymph node dissection.<br />Breast reconstruct<span id="more-125"></span>ion is the rebuilding of the breast after mastectomy and sometimes lumpectomy. Reconstruction can take place at the same time as cancer-removing surgery, or months to years later. Some women decide not to have reconstruction and opt for a prosthesis instead.</p>
<p>Prophylactic mastectomy is preventive removal of the breast to lower the risk of breast cancer in high-risk people.<br />Prophylactic ovary removal is a preventive surgery that lowers the amount of estrogen in the body, making it harder for estrogen to stimulate the development of breast cancer.<br />Cryotherapy, also called cryosurgery, uses extreme cold to freeze and kill cancer cells. Right now, cryotherapy is an experimental treatment for breast cancer.</p>
<p>There is always hope, remember.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin:0 auto;float:left;padding-right:5px"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4076/4777116599_e02e61e1fe_m.jpg" width="200" height="150" alt="You Can Be Cancer Free Despite the Diagnosis"></div>
<p>The medical world fills our heads with all the ways to treat cancer, the devastating effects cancer has on a person, and who is more susceptible to it. If your grandmother and mother have it, you will likely have it too. They sure make life sound so promising, don&#8217;t they? They never seem to have access to interesting facts like what caused the cancer. Maybe they are too busy expecting future cases and trying to treat the ones they have. If we knew the causes of it, could we avoid them or get to the root of this awful disease? Could there be such a thing as a cancer remover?</p>
<p>Is there an alternative to conventional methods like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation? All of these treat your body more like a pinata than a living being. Patients often wonder if dying would be easier than living. Is there a gentle, non toxic cancer remover? One that treats your body as<span id="more-124"></span> a refuge instead of a dump. Sadly, a doctor is one of the least likely people to tell you about natural, proven healing methods even though many people have been completely healed of cancer using these methods. You have a choice if you are a cancer victim or if you have a friend or family member who is. Do you want to undergo surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation so that you can be in remission? Or do you want to beat cancer once and for all?</p>
<p>Yes, it&#8217;s true, you can beat cancer with a cancer remover. This requires no nasty treatments that leave you feeling like the walking dead. Even if the medical professionals told you that you are terminal, you do not have to accept that diagnosis. There is hope! There is a book that makes beating cancer simple. All you have to is buy the book and you are in control of where you go from there. It&#8217;s your body. Do you want to accept a death sentence or you do you want to proclaim life? No one should have to die this way and you don&#8217;t have to. It&#8217;s your choice, it&#8217;s your body, and you can reverse this disease.</p>

<p><strong>Breaf History of Hyperthermia</strong><br />The healing effect of heat treatment was already mentioned in the advanced cultures of the old Egypt (2400 B.C.), but only the medical professionals of the Greek Antique used this therapeutic approach consistently, acknowledged it and called it over-warming (in Greek: Hyperthermia). &#8220;Give me the power to produce fever and I heal every illness&#8221;, said Parmenides, Greek physician, 540-480 B.C.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" rel="external nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.mesothelioma-asbestoscancer.org/mesothelioma-treatment.html" target="_blank" title="Hyperthermia in cancer treatment"><strong>Hyperthermia in cancer treatment</strong><br /></a>Hyperthermia (also called thermal therapy or thermotherapy) is an acute condition which occurs wh<span id="more-92"></span>en the body produces or absorbs more heat than it can dissipate. It is usually caused by prolonged exposure to high temperatures. The heat-regulating mechanisms of the body eventually become overwhelmed and unable to effectively deal with the heat, causing the body temperature to climb uncontrollably.</p>
<p>Hyperthermia can also be created artificially by drugs or medical devices. In these instances it may be used to treat cancer and other conditions. Cancer cells are more heat-sensitive than healthy cells and their structure reacts differently to overheating. In 1910 the possibility of overheating in order to increase the radiation effect on malicious tumors was described for the first time. This already well-known and applied method was rediscovered as so called &#8220;whole body hyperthermia&#8221; in the beginning of the 1960s. Since the 70s a number of studies were run to further investigate this therapy form.</p>
<p>Research has shown that high temperatures (up to 44°C) can damage and kill cancer cells, usually with minimal injury to normal tissues. By killing cancer cells and damaging proteins and structures within cells, hyperthermia may shrink tumors.</p>
<p>Hyperthermia is almost always used with other forms of cancer therapy, such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Hyperthermia may make some cancer cells more sensitive to radiation or harm other cancer cells that radiation cannot damage. When hyperthermia and radiation therapy are combined, they are often given within an hour of each other. Hyperthermia can also enhance the effects of certain anticancer drugs, which is mutually strengthened thereby and a healing more likely &#8211; the so-called synergistic effect of hyperthermia. It was found out that cytostatic drugs (chemotherapy substances) clearly act more aggressively at temperatures over 40° C than within the range of the normal body temperature.</p>

<p>Headaches are common but usually do not represent a serious illness. Even when headaches do not have a serious cause, they may be quite painful and disrupt your daily activities. </p>
<p>There are many different causes of headache. The pain in different types of headache varies in intensity, location, and duration. Another important feature that helps distinguish among different types of headache is the quality of the p<span id="more-84"></span>ain: whether it is sharp, dull, constant, intermittent, or pounding. Additional symptoms may accompany a headache such as dizziness, numbness or weakness, changes in vision, difficulty with balance, eye, ear, or facial pain, cold symptoms, and even fever </p>
<p>All these factors help determine whether or not a headache needs emergency treatment. Ultimately, the cause of the headache determines the best treatment. Headache can affect anyone, of any race, socioeconomic status, age, and gender. Stress and anxiety are reported to trigger some peoples headaches. Others find no apparent reason for theirs. </p>
<p>The most common types of headache are known as tension-type, while the next most common are called migraine. What most people consider to be a mild headache is most often tension-type headache or a mix of tension-type and migraine. </p>
<p>Headache is caused by irritation or injury to pain-sensing structures of the head. The structures that can sense pain include the scalp, the muscles of the neck and head, major arteries and veins in the head, the sinuses, and the tissues that surround the brain. </p>
<p>Headache may occur when these structures suffer compression, spasm, tension, inflammation, or irritation. The brain has no nerve endings so the brain itself cannot &#8220;hurt.&#8221;</p>
<p>Research into the mechanisms of various headache types continues, and new theories arise frequently. Specifically, the causes of mild tension-type headache are not completely understood, and debate continues regarding the cause.</p>
<p>A common theory involves nerve endings in the head that are irritated by tight muscles in the neck, face, and scalp, along with irritation to the arteries and veins nearby. The events that trigger mild headache vary widely among people who get headaches. Each person seems to have his or her own pattern. </p>
<p>Common headache triggers stress, before, during, or after menstruation, muscle tension in the back and neck, exhaustion, hunger, and medications (Many drugs designed to relieve pain can actually cause headache when the drug is stopped after a period of prolonged use.)</p>
<p>Other causes of headache include household hazards such as carbon monoxide poisoning: If the headaches are recurrent or worse each morning or if more than 1 person in the household experiences the same type of headache, there may be an excessive level of carbon monoxide in the air. </p>
<p>Carbon monoxide poisoning comes from faulty heaters or stoves that do not have proper exhaust to the outside of the house. If you suspect carbon monoxide poisoning, leave the building immediately and do not return until the levels of carbon monoxide are checked. </p>
<p>Headache associated with eye pain and vomiting: These headaches often indicate an eye disease called glaucoma and warrant immediate medical attention, or vision can be permanently harmed. Headache that occurs with neck stiffness or pain, light sensitivity, fever, and confusion: These types of headaches could mean meningitis. This is a true medical emergency and needs immediate attention. </p>
<p>Mild headache symptoms are unlikely to need immediate medical attention. These mild symptoms include mild head pain that is aching, squeezing, or band like, on both sides of the head, generally above the level of the eyebrows. </p>
<p>These headaches can occur often and may appear at predictable times. People who have these types of mild headache often know the triggers and symptoms of their headaches in great detail, because the pattern repeats itself for each episode.</p>
<p>Common headache types include tension-type headache is thought to be the most common headache type. It occurs more often in women than in men. Attacks can be occasional or more frequent. Symptoms include tight, or pressing, mild to moderate head pain, which may be on both sides. </p>
<p>Migraine is the second most common headache type. These are classified according to whether or not they include an aura (a visual disturbance, weakness, or numbness that occurs 1-2 hours before the onset of the headache). Migraines with this aura are called classic, while those without are called common. Migraine is more common in women than men. It is often one-sided, throbbing, of moderate to severe intensity. The headache may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light. </p>
<p>Cluster headache is a less common headache that occurs in men more often than women. With a cluster headache, there is intense pain that is generally on one side and located around the eye or temple. </p>
<p>A bloodshot eye, tearing, runny nose, and eyelid drooping or swelling on the same side of the face may also occur. The headaches tend to occur in &#8220;clusters,&#8221; sometimes daily or every few days over a period of weeks to months. After such a &#8220;cluster&#8221; of headaches, there may be symptom-free periods of years before another cluster of headaches occurs. </p>
<p>Consult a doctor about your headache and find out what can be done for pain relief in these situations: you have a chronic medical illness such as high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attack or stroke, diabetes, or liver problems, you are not obtaining relief with over-the-counter pain medications.</p>
<p>Consult a doctor about your headache if you are taking any other prescription or nonprescription medications, there is any change in the normal pattern of your headache, you have a new type of headache that you never had before, you have pain in your face or eyes, and if you have a very severe headache. </p>
<p>Although headaches are very common, they may be a sign of serious disease that warrants immediate medical attention. Go to an emergency department if any of the following symptoms occur. </p>
<p>Severe pain, pain that develops very rapidly, a change in concentration or ability to think, a change in level of alertness, altered speech, weakness, numbness, or difficulty walking, changes in vision, headache with a stiff neck or neck pain, or if light hurts your eyes, worst headache of your life, headache with dizziness, room spinning, or falling to one side, headache from an injury or blow to the head, and headache with fever (over 100.4F or 38C when taken by mouth). </p>
<p>Treating a mild headache will usually involve over-the-counter pain medications. There are many different medications marketed for control of headache pain. The pharmaceutical companies spend millions of dollars each year to advertise their products. However, many &#8220;special&#8221; headache remedies are no better than simple acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or aspirin. In addition, stress reduction and rest may be helpful.</p>
<p>Doctors usually recommend over-the-counter pain medications for mild headache. If these medications do not adequately treat your headache, consult a doctor for further recommendations.</p>
<p>Although relatively safe, over-the-counter pain medicines all have potential side effects. Inappropriate use may have serious consequences. Always read the label and follow the recommended dosage. </p>
<p>Even nonprescription pain medicines can be dangerous if taken improperly or if taken for headache that is caused by certain diseases (such as bleeding or stroke). Potential problems include overdose, overuse, cross-reactions with other medications (especially with blood thinners), and toxic effects on various organs (especially the liver).</p>
<p>Acetaminophen (brand names include Tylenol, Aspirin Free Anacin, and Feverall, for example) is a safe and very effective pain reliever and should be considered the first-line treatment of headache. </p>
<p>Although acetaminophen has few cross-reactions with other medications, avoid taking with alcohol and sleeping medicines (barbiturates and benzodiazepines such as Valium). If acetaminophen alone is inadequate, some people report that the addition of caffeine to the acetaminophen provides more relief from pain (examples include Excedrin and Aspirin-Free) and is a reasonable choice for those people who can tolerate caffeine well. </p>
<p>Unless advised by a doctor, people with liver diseases such as cirrhosis or hepatitis, and heavy drinkers, should avoid acetaminophen. Drinking a cup of caffeinated coffee with a pain reliever can provide the same caffeine effect. By increasing the production of stomach acid, caffeine helps the body absorb headache medicines more quickly. </p>
<p>Aspirin is another common pain reliever. Its most common side effects are stomach upset and increased risk of bleeding. Aspirin is a type of &#8220;nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.&#8221; People with stomach ulcers or on blood thinners such as warfarin (Coumadin) should not take aspirin. </p>
<p>Alcohol use increases the risk of bleeding. Heavy drinkers should not take aspirin because of the risk of bleeding from stomach irritation or ulcer formation. People older than 60 years and those with kidney problems should not take aspirin unless advised by their doctor. </p>
<p>Aspirin is commonly prescribed by doctors after a stroke without bleeding and can prevent another stroke. Taking aspirin for undiagnosed severe headache may be dangerous. The severe headache could come from a bleeding stroke and taking aspirin may make the bleeding worse. </p>
<p>Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs known as NSAIDs include such medications as ibuprofen (Advil and Motrin, for example) and naproxen sodium (Aleve and Naprosyn are commonly known brand names). These medications are often used for headache. The side effects are similar to those of aspirin. </p>
<p>It is important not to take aspirin and other NSAIDs together because the side effects are additive meaning they build on each other and become worse than one taken alone. The same warnings about age, kidney disease, stroke, and alcohol problems apply to other NSAIDs as well as to aspirin. </p>
<p>Homeopathic, herbal, and other remedies that are not tested for safety or regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can be potentially dangerous and are not recommended. Without FDA regulation there is no control over the quality, dose, or ingredients. Scientific studies that document safety and effectiveness are not required prior to the sale of these unregulated products.</p>
