It sounds like you feel there is a delay in starting your treatment.  Just be careful not to ignore traditional therapy as HD is cureable.  RT in early stage and RT and/or chemo in later stage will lead to long term cure in >80% of patients.

yes you are right I feel delayed, hospital first refused to do the biposy becouse insurance didn't want to pay for it then they make me wait 2 weeks to see any oncologist....but I guess it has to be like that.......that is why I try natural medicine...........

Hi,

You may also want to look into low dose naltrexone.  Search LDN cancer.

My husband is using a Gerson type approach, and you can have as much fruit and fresh veggies you want.  If you buy their book, cheapest on Amazon, there are recipes in the back.

I work with a natural path and my husband also has hodgkins and from what i know sugar feeds cancer so no suger or white flour fresh fruits and veggies are great.Juiceing is good too essiac tea works for some my husband didnt stay on the diet so he still has it after 7yrs but if you can stick with it I think that  you will be good.Hope that helped a little.

I know how you feel, this all seems to take to long.  I was diagnosed two weeks ago with rectal cancer and still have to see an oncologist yet and the radiologist specialist.  It's to bad they can't skip some steps and make this go faster for us.  As a nurse I'll sure remember this in the future for my patients.  I hope you get seen soon!

 I wonder if the same teas are good for my type of cancer?  Everyone keeps telling me to drink some tea to help get through chemo too but I want to check with the onc. doctor first.  Any suggestions from anyone is appreciated.

I was diagnosed with non Hodgkin's in May 2004 and have never had any traditional treatment. I have a Regimen that was recommended for me by a naturopath and complementary doctor which covers diet, supplements, life style changes etc. which I'll gladly send along if you will send me a private message or you could probably locate it on this board if you check under Alternative medicine since I have posted it here a few times. I continue to feel strong and healthy with no symptoms of disease. Shemay

Rice stuff and goat stuff are ok try and stay away from dairy your body dosnt digest dairy after the age of two so if your body is working to try to digest the diary and your immune system needs all the time it can to work.

Try this site for foods to eat. rice and goat are not recommended. Also try buffered vitamin C powder. Take 1 tsp every hour and if you experience diarreha with first 6 hours of use, reduce dosage to 1 tsp every 2 hours. If diarreha continues take 1 tsp every 3 hours. It all depends on hour your body reacts to the vitamin C. Also make sure you follow a strict alkaline diet based on the chart in this link http://www.i-amperfectlyhealthy.com/acid-alkalinefoodlist.ht add calcium, magnesium, selenium, and vitamin A & B to you supplements. You can probably find a combination of these online. Also check what the buffered vitamin C contains. Sometimes it does contain some of these supplements. Keep this strict diet for a couple of months and you will kill the cancer. Good luck and God bless.
