Null24, thank you for making me feel welcome at Nexus when I got here. You're a great mentor and I really enjoy your posts. Hope the very best.

Hello

While I might not know you well from the forums, I wish you the best and hope for a calm outcome of the situation.

Without spearing more, through my reading I have rarely seen proper tumor or cancer treatments. But the few that are, I will list it to you here.


vitamin C IV. There is huge amounts of vitamin C as far as I know in the lungs, and vitamin C IV route has been shown to be very, very safe, and actually effective at decreasing tumor size.

Also, fasting, is a no brainer. I remember a rat study, where they did chemo and fasting + chemo and no fasting. The fasting group had much better tumor destruction outcomes, and were generally healthier.

Certain tumors build on sugar so you might want to look into that.

Sorry I couldn't offer more.

Thank you all, the support is very appreciated. Im starting to do appointments and am heading out to have some imaging done today, and hopefully will have the biopsy soon as well. I don't know if it indicates anything other than a decent insurance plan that I've been able to get in so quickly during covid-19. I'll update as i get info.

Love you all. Be good to you.

Good luck I am rooting for you.

Hey..it might be worth checking out the raw food scene, Gerson therapy, green juicing + coffee enemas in combination with intensive herbal medicines, ayahuasca etc

Well, yes it is indeed cancer. Went over the ct images yesterday with the specialist. He doesn't think it needs to be biopsied and wants to get me into surgery asap. It sounds like as long as it hasn't spread that my chances are very good if surgery is successful. That sounds like much better odds to me, i can deal with that.

I feel for you null24; that is heavy news. Sometimes a CT scan appearance can be deemed to be cancerous without a need for a formal biopsy but the next steps are key ie further imaging to look for nodes suggesting spread, or deposits elsewhere. This usually requires a CT san of the un-imaged areas (brain, thorax, abdomen, pelvis) and a PET scan. Should no such evidence be found then surgery is the best way forward if the patient is well enough.

I wish you all the best.

Well.
Not the news any of us wanted to hear...
Please keep us posted, there is lots of love and support for you here.

What can I say besides offering genuine love.
A very dearest of mine is in a cancer process as we speak. Not to compare cases but just want to say I feel for all of us.

Thinking of it, can we aid with a fund raising of sorts?

Man, again, i can't tell y'all how much the support means to me.

I'm scheduled for the PET test Tuesday, and that's the last thing to do before surgery. I should probably be more scared about it, but i have confidence that it will be successful and that I'll beat this thing.

I'm hoping that the surgery will be done next week, it is surprising how fast they are moving on this.


I couldn't really ask for something like that, however, I'm unable to work and am having to deal with being threatened with eviction on top of everything, so something like that would be very helpful. If anyone wants to send a PM regarding that, they are welcome to do so. Thank you for the suggestion.

If this is an egregious error against the rules of the forum, please accept my apology and remove...

Given the idea by a little birdie, i set up a GoFundMe in the hopes that it can raise some funds to alleviate the pressure associated with the worry over paying for rent while I'm recuperating from the surgery.

If anyone takes the ringer to check it out, and especially to donate, i really can't put into words how much gratitude i have. All of your support, even just words, means a lot to me. Thank you, everyone.

I hope this doesn't violate anything. For your cause it sounds perfectly fine to me.

You can get through this, Null. My heart goes out to you

@null24

hi,I been in similar situation myself 2 years ago,kidney cancer and a 'node'on my lungs

stop smoking immediatelly,I have stopped smoking tabacoo 5 years prior to my diagnoses but still was smoking cannabis through a water bong.When I got the CT scan and a 3mmm 'node'on my lungs I bought volcano vaporiser the same day.best investment I have made in recent years.


the node was gone after 6 months -not sure what to think of it,going to keep an open mind but thought i will mention this to you...


The doctors were not sure if this node is a scar from overcoming infection or the cancer started spreading from my kidney to my lungs-that's where it goes next apparently.

I have been treating my symptoms with cannabis oil 2 years prior my diagnoses.The oil did help,mainly indica genetics and CBD too.Was using oil and vaping cannabis flower every day for last 2 years.
Microdosing cubes twice a week did help to keep the spirit up.

It will be an emocionall rollecoster so get ready for that,and try to get mentally prepared-rest and concentrate on yourself now-get better 1st,everything else can wait.

I did not have any treatment-chemo or radio only surgery , as it doesn't work for that type of cancer I had,lost nearly 50% of my kidney but appart from that I feel best I felt in years

Wishing you all the best

Hey, thanks again for all the kind words and support. My pulmonologist stated that they want to have this done and to be on the way to recovery by the end of the month. I have a consult with the surgeon this Tuesday, in two days, and I anticipate going into surgery shortly afterwards. I am hoping for it to be Thurs or Fri.

Physically, I feel okay. Emotionally and mentally, however, I'm struggling. I have developed a brain-fog that is making it hard to keep myself on track. Even writing this, I have gotten distracted twice already on some tangential thought. Others have told me that it is the cancer, but I don't know if it is that or the knowledge of it that is doing it. Emotionally, at times I have this strange combination of deep sadness and elation, and I seem to land squarely in the middle at ambivalence. I think I've short-circuited from an overload. I am a very analytical person and one of the greatest challenges to me throught the pandemic has been accepting the fact that I m just not going to know certain things about certain things that affect me and my life. This whole thing is that, but exponentially more intense. I don't know when, what, or how regarding the surgery or even the disease. All I do know is that I just want this thing out of me.

There has been a ton of support given to me through this that has proven to be a hugely uplifting thing. The GoFundMe I set up has come close to it's goal, and I appreciate the support of those that have given. To those here who have who wish to remain anonymous, PM me if you would like, I want to give you some kind of a piece of artwork- a print or something when all this is said and done and want to know how to get it to you.

And again, it makes me feel strange asking for something like this, but I would like to point those who may have the means to the GFM link in this thread. The support I have seen already is uplifting and goes a long way to providing space for healing, it is worth far more than any monetary value. I wish that we could all live on the love within our hearts, but as of now it is not a commodity. Any support is appreciated beyond my ability to express in words.

Anyway, thanks everybody, peace and be good to you!

Helped you to reach the goal

Rooting for you null! You can do it!

Y'all are awesome, thanks to all! I had a consult with my surgeon on Tuesday. He gave me the information i was lacking, and I'm glad i didn't do a bunch of internet searches on what it MIGHT be, adding to my already astronomical stress levels.

The PET scan i did the previous week is used to determine the severity of an inflammatory condition. A radioactive sugar is injected into the bloodstream and tracked in a similar way that a CT scan is done. Apparently sugar congregates around areas of inflammation, and the degree to which is does use an indication of severity. Or something like that. The scan revealed that the mass is not aggressively growing, isn't small cell and doesn't look like it spread. In fact, he's pretty certain but not 100% that it's even cancer.

So that is a relief. We are still taking it out, and surgery is scheduled for next Wednesday. I'll let y'all know I'm a alive and in one piece of slightly less mass when it's done, and post some gnarly wound pics.

Thank you for taking the time to post an update.
That is great news.
