WHile going thorugh CancerCompass site, I found lot of information about various treatments. Doctors have told that she willl not be able to bear chemo therpy doese. Doctors have advised TARCEVA, but it is very expensive and cannot afford. Hence we are looking for alternative treatment.Of these treatments, flax oil treatment seems to be really harmless. Can anybody give some more information about this treatment? Is there anybody from India / any where who can share their experience about this treatment?Thanks.   India001 Sat, 12 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT  On 4/12/2008 India001 wrote:My friend's mother who is 74 year old and detected lung cancer.WHile going thorugh CancerCompass site, I found lot of informationabout various treatments.

The company who makes the drug helps with suppliesand your doctor should help you to apply.. There havebeen incredibleresults with Tarceva, including shrinking tumors completely, so do tryto pursue getting financial help for this drug.Best wishes,Jane  Jane M Sat, 12 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT  On 4/12/2008 India001 wrote:My friend's mother who is 74 year old and detected lung cancer.

Also, use Essiac Tea, Liquid Minerals, Curcumin with heavy cream, IP6 w/Inositol, a good MultiVitamin, Selenimen, Magnesium, Potassium, Reservatrol, Vitamin D3.  The Flaxseed Oil, Essiac Tea and the Curcumin are the 3 that we feel are the most important. She is now in remission, her system built back up, looking and feeling good with lot's of energy.Her and I feel that these things are what is keeping her alive.Use your search engine and research, research, research.Also read BIll Henderson, The Beckwith Family and others.   David D.
