Protocel - Has anyone used this?

I am wondering if anyone else has used Protocel for cancer treatment.  One of the books I've read on alternative treatments for cancer rated this as the most effective of the treatments it discussed, even better than the Budwig Protocol, Gerson and others. 

I tried it for a few months, and stayed in remission while on it.  However, had to stop all supplements while recovering from stem cell transplant.  But hope to resume soon. 

If anyone else has used it, I would like to hear about your results.

After reading "Outsmart your Cancer" by Tanya Harter Pierce, I ordered 3 months of Protocel.  In several months I will get a blood count to see if anything has happend.

My disease is Leukemia (CLL).  It is not  overly agressive but it has wrecked my life with difficult fatigue and brain fog.  If Protocel works I will be on the ceiling with delight.  It seems to be the easiest alternative treatment in the whole book.

Drinking a small amount of this supplement with water every six hours is not hard to do and it is inexpensive.

Has anyone out there with CLL tried this treatment?  Please let me know.  I need encouragement.

Thanks, Karen!  That's the book I read also. I hope your blood counts bring good news.  I think in the book they say to expect markers to go up a bit initially as your body clears the cancer, then to start coming down.  I called the company and checked on whether a problem taking it with any of my meds, and they told me no interactions.  So my thought was that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try, and might help.

I've had fatigue and brain fog with multiple myeloma also.  In case you aren't already using these - supplements that have helped me improve some with these symptoms include sublinqual B12, a B complex, curcumin or turmeric - 1500 mg daily, and L-theanine (which comes from green tea). Turmeric or curcumin, and L-theanine have been researched and shown to support cognitive functioning.  The B vitamins help with energy, and B12 also especially helps with thinking.

B12 levels can be tested by your doctor. I had mine tested and they were normal after taking B12 for about a month. My doctor said no contraindications to taking this, so I'll keep taking it because I can tell a difference when I do.

Wishing you well in every way.  Keep your spirits up.  It's a rough road too much of the time, but many of us walk it with you, and hope for your successful healing.

Dear Dawn,

How long have you been fighting this dragon? I was diagnosed in 2001.  The fatigue was low at first but then it built up.  I used everything in my power to fight it: diet, supplements etc.

In September of 2009 I had 4 treatments of Rituxan as a single agent.  Three months later some of the severe fatigue and brain fog lifted.  I have asked Dr. Keating of MDAnderson if it would be wise to have another series of Rituxan.  He hasn't answered so I imagine he doesn't think this is a great idea.  His experience is huge.

And now I have my hopes up for Protocel.  You are the only person I know who has Leukemia and is trying this approach.   Please keep in touch so we can match any of our symptoms and hopefully get better.

I also take B12 and BComplex.  I combine them in a syringe to the level of 2cc and inject in my hip.  It stings a bit so I deaded the skin first with ice cubes.  I do this every Wednesday. 

The Protocel 50  arrrived April 23 and I started at once with a schedule of 10am, 4pm, 10pm and 4am.  The drug store sold me 6 plastic bottles so I prepare them in advance.  The middle of the night is the hardest. No alarm.  Just take it when I awake to go to the bathroom anyway.

It kills me to give up Vitamin C and MSM and Omega 3 and other homeopathc remedies but I am doing it.  I would do just about anything to get out of this bag.

Let us hope this gives us a cure.  The stories in Tanya's book are so exciting.

Write me about anything.  You are my life line.

Karen

Karen,

I was taking the other version of Protocel  before transplant-  following the same basic dosing schedule as you are.  Just taking it at night when I woke up.  I was also concerned about giving up things like Vit C. and Curcumin, especially. But during the couple months I used Protocel before transplant, everything held steady.  I think they say you need to use it for at least 6 months to give it time to start working.  But not sure if I am remembering this correctly.

I was encouraged by the info in the book also - it seemed a good analysis of complementary approaches.  I was inspired by many of the stories - how these researchers persevered on their own - often despite significant persecution.  (Some of the stories would make great movies.)

What really impressed me about Protocel and some of the other approaches was the strong orientation and dedication to healing of these independent researchers.  They were clearly not self-serving or doing this research only for the money potential.

Fighting the dragon - hadn't thought of it that way - but a fitting description.  I probably had the Multiple Myeloma (not leukemia, but also a blood cancer) for at least 5 years - per my doctor, but wasn't diagnosed until 2-09. Had stem cell transplant in Nov. 09; still recovering.  It took a year before my insurance company would approve payment for the MRI or other diagnostic tests that finally resulted in identifying the MM - despite my having a clearly visible and painful bone tumor since 2008.

Right now I am not sure when to resume Protocel, as I've been using some herbal meds from an Oriental Medicine physician - that have proven very helpful - moreso than prescribed drugs.  However when I called and talked with the people at Protocel, they were not sure if the herbs would interfere with effectiveness of the Protocel - as they were not familiar with the Chinese herbs.   I am also taking some powdered mushrooms provided by the OM physician.  He specializes in oncology.  His name is Chris Powell, and he's at Missouri Acupuncture Services in Kansas City, MO.  I may give this a try for awhile.  Or I might take the Protocel anyway, since it apparently does not interfere with other meds or supplements - the issue being more that these could interfere with the Protocel.  Is that how you have understood it as well?

I will keep in touch.  It helps to be able to discuss these matters with others who understand your experiences.  We will keep on keeping on, and eventually I think we will learn to tame the dragon. 

Dawn

I'm wondering if you have started to use the Protocel and what results you have had?

My best friend recently diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in lungs petulitary and brain...we tried the macrobiotic diet to alkaline the body..we found it was too rapid of a weight loss and not enough nutrition with just the veggie liquid diet...we saw rapid decline until we tried the protocell.....granted we are not looking for a cure but some quality time...after day 2 of this product we saw great improvement as he can eat a regular diet watching excessive sugar....every 6 hours he drinks the liquid and sweats profussley, but he has life back in his eyes...can feel the improvement, and took a walk...WOW!....I know it is early in the treatment process but he went from deaths door to walking in 3 days...will keep everyone updated...we believe the whole concept of the protocell...it makes sense and doesnt starve the patient..

My husband w/ stage 4 kidney mets to the liver and diaphram started Protocel 2 weeks ago and Paw Paw 1 week later.  I don't remember sweats being a side effect of protocel, but Bill suffers nightly from tumor fever breaking into sweats and chills.  Watching his minerals by adding Pedialyte or Gatorade during the day and taking 1 Tylenol when the fever begins helped a lot with the terrible fatigue he's been dealing with.
