I am forever grateful to this place!

link to my first experiences essay

So in my first experiences report (link above) I said the entities (or something) told me I had serious medical problems that needed immediate attention. I immediately had a series of tests done including a biopsy of a lump in my lymph system.

The results are back and I have follicular Lymphoma, a type of cancer. I am grateful. I am surprised.
This is a gift-because the psychedelic consciousness told me to have it checked, they showed me my death and how this was not a death in the conventional sense but a change, a transition. and not to fall into the trap of being emotional about it being the end.

I go into the hospital Mon and Tue for further tests on stage and extent. Bone marrow tests etc. I have a question. I have heard that aya is medicine and that people have healed themselves using it. Is this something I should do?

Does it work with cancer? Should I do it before I get the treatments of radiation and/or whatever else western medicine offer or along with? I also plan to use eastern med too, herbs acupuncture.

What do you guys think?

Thanks
Humblebee

I think a large part of one's health is inextricably interconnected with the psyche. A healthy psyche strengthens the immune system. Ayahuasca is notorious for its abilities to strengthen the psyche and spirit. Can it cure cancer? I don't know. Can it help, quite possibly.

humblebee, i am so sorry to hear this, but i will say i like your attitude. Was it a shock, when you first found out 'officially'? or had you almost expected something like it..

i just read again your other post yesterday, and you know its funny, i didn’t remember it was you who said that ..they said “when you need to relax say "wait". This has really helped me, i can’t even begin to explain how well it does infact work!

~I go into the hospital Mon and Tue for further tests on stage and extent. Bone marrow tests etc. I have a question. I have heard that aya is medicine and that people have healed themselves using it. Is this something I should do?~

personally i think that any psychedelic journeying you decide to do will ultimately benefit you in the long run, and of course! aya would be a great choice

I agree Global, there was a doc about it that i have since deleted.. and have completely forgotten the name of, but i guess there’s another one along the same lines, wouldn’t ya know it! called “the science of healing” i haven’t watched it yet but its all good stuff to look into,

be brave humblebee, you humblebee you

I practically synchronistically stumbled upon this like 10 min ago while watching a vid about schizophrenic children and psychedelics. I think this directly addresses the issue.

Ayahuasca Cancer

I'm sorry to hear about your condition.

I think I would use Aya to help you make your choice on how you should go about healing.

schizophrenic children and psychedelics, which doc is this?

I'm very sorry to hear this humblebee. I think you should feel free to make what you think is a best use of ayahuasca--whenever you feel the use will benefit you (but I wouldn't use it at periods where you're feeling very unwell from chemo treatment).

BTW, my dog has lymphoma (not follicular, however). He has done AMAZINGLY well on chemo--better than almost all other dogs with the same condition. Two things I have added to the chemo regimen he gets at the University Vet Hospital are:

1) DCA (dichloroacetate)--look here and here. Look it up. It shows promise--even for lymphoma, which is NOT what should be it's idea target.
2) Alpha-Lipoic-Acid. It has shown some anti-cancer effect, but it's also just extremely beneficial for healthy cells. Between these two things, I find it reasonable to believe that I have significantly extended my dog's life in addition to his chemotherapy.

Whatever you do, I would make my diet as clean as possible. I would not touch anything that is not organic, that is processed, refined etc. If you eat meat I would make sure you get only freerange organic meat..you really are what you eat and there are so many toxic chemicals and carcinogens in alot of food that is available out there. Water is important as well, wild spring water if available is the best thing you can drink.

I would seriousily look into alkaline diets..there is alot of research that suggests a link between acidic bodies and cancer.

Apparently pau d arco and dragons blood are 2 herbs from the amazon that are helpful in cancer cases.

Ayahuasca I think is best approached for this sort of thing when you are working with it with a clean diet, or even working with a specific dieta as would be perscribed individually in the amazon.

If you are eating as clean as possible, resting and not stressing out than I think that can only help to boost whatever other treatments you choose.

I wish you the best of luck on your journey.

here is a video about a guy who cured his cancer with diet.

I have no proof for you, but I have heard time and time again of people who have reversed cancer by switching to full on raw and mostly fruitarian diets. Diet can do so many things, my doctor was told she was going to die 10 years ago..she never had cancer but something else I cant remember. She showes me pics of her hair falling out at like 30 years old..now she is sooo healthy and alive. She never even went vegan or raw, just went 100% organic and stopped eating grains, cut out all alcohol,dairy, coffee etc and worked with an ayurvedic doctor taking medicinal herbs and doing yoga.

I believe that the body can rebound from almost anything. I was very sick at one point and though I never had cancer my doctor thought I might and was sending me for tests. I know how freaked out that can make a person. I ended up having other diseases that I basically cured by unconventional methods, and the allopathic doctors still did not buy it and would not hear it..yet here I am and I am healthier than I have ever been now. 3 years ago I barely even left my house and had left college and could barely handle having a job anymore.

here is another video that you might find interesting.

Yeah that was the one.

You guys are awesome! I watched "the science of miracles" and read the Aya and cancer MAPS article. I'm about to check out the other videos. I am going to use Aya to help, it think I can't go wrong. Besides the articles and videos about the benefits of diet changes I also have recently followed the "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" book diet.

Before the lump came, (about 2 yrs before) I had stomach problems, I tried everything because I was so sick all the time, my gut was constantly in pain. I kept going to the Dr, they kept doing tests and everything kept coming back normal. They they gave up and said I had GERD. I didn't believe it, but I was starting to feel like maybe I was a hypochondriac.

Then after I gave up, I found that a good diet helped a lot- A LOT! I was in much less pain, and when I was in pain I could deal with it.

Then a few months ago my friend introduced me to the spice, and reinvigorated my use of mushrooms for teaching/learning. Everything I already suspected but couldn't articulate was confirmed in the full magical way spice does.

I plan to use mother aya. I will cure myself-I am able and already consider myself cured. You guys are my support system in a VERY important way. May we all be together in helping the planet the universe and everything!

Hello Humblebee , i'm sorry to hear about the diagnosis, but happy to be able to reccomend that one great medicine i found when travelling in Peru was "una de gato", which is available online in bark form, and an excellent immune system booster that's medically proven. I used it as a tonic, and felt very strong from it. I also used it to help me get better when i got jaundice after some infection from the jungle. It's powerful stuff.

-I wish you well, whatever you decide.

Sorry to hear about your condition, but your outlook and enthusiasm is great! I have the same enthusiasm about your recovery, after reading this thread.

Listen to fractal, he knows. An alkaline diet is essential. I truly believe that most all disease in the body is caused by being too acidic.

I've been reading a bit on this herb lately, which might help. It is called "Cancer Bush" after all.
