I think it's worth looking into. All the drug companies are against it, because it's a treatment (that they call a vaccine) derived from your own blood. Apparently it has produced miracles. If not total remission in otherwise hopeless cases, it definately improved quality, and longevity of life. Do yourself a favor and google it. I am currently looking further into it myself as a caregiver of a colo-rectal cancer patient. The more people know, the less pull the drug companies have over these treatments. Not to say they don't work, but there HAS to be other ways! 5legof Wed, 28 Feb 2007 00:00:00 GMT Hello Slegof Thank you for your message. I have been researching alternative therapies for some time now and this is one I was not familiar with. I think the true facts are actually becoming known finally about the dismal success rate of chemotherapy and radiation (very little improvement over the last fifty or more years) and the horrendous side effects often caused by these treatments and this is encouraging more and more people to turn to the less invasive and more successful alternative therapies. Here is a website worth checking out..... http://www.immunemedicine.com/dendritic-cell-therapy.asp Blessings Shemay On 2/28/2007 5legof wrote:Has anyone heard of, or done dendritic cell therapy?
