How’s it going Zack?

I ran across this article on DMSO today – from the same author that <span class=”atwho-inserted” contenteditable=”false” data-atwho-at-query=”@J”>@J.R.L</span> referenced – the Midwest Doctor.   This particular article references, among its many benefits, the ability of DMSO to heal eye injury and improve eyesight.
This sounded familiar, so I went back to the RPF and looked at responses to the <span class=”atwho-inserted” contenteditable=”false” data-atwho-at-query=”@ha”>@haidut</span> chemicals using DMSO as a solvent.   Several of the users claimed “expanded Vision” or “Improved vision” after using Defibron, Metergoline and others.
In his article, the Midwest Doctor references the following:
“Many DMSO users have noticed that their vision improved while they used it for something else (e.g., see this, this and this testimonial from a reader here), which in turn inspired physicians to begin applying it to the eyes of patients with vision problems.”
Is it possible the effects on the eyes and expanded vision were do to the DMSO alone?
It sounds like DMSO has minimal, and short term side effects (reversible irritation, burning sensation, vasodilation) that are far outweighed by the benefits.  One of them is potential relief from Tinnitus, which I’ve had for a while.  Other treatments include, circulatory and neurological disorders (e.g., varicose veins, hemorrhoids, Down Syndrome, Parkinson’s and arthritis.  In addition, DMSO by itself is able to increase parasympathetic activity, has strong anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties.
Here’s a partial list of successes:

So I had a new PET scan on Monday and results came back today.  The tumor has grown slightly since my last scan 4 months ago.  Pretty much what everyone was expecting – but frustrating for me since I was hoping the aspirin/B1/B7/B3 combo would have helped more.  I have an MRI next week and then they’ll want to do surgery.
Right now, I’m just hoping to reduce its size by the surgery – a tall order – but I have Ivermectin, some Doxycycline and a ton of aspirin left.  I can go hardcore no fat, continue with the above protocol and menanuka honey, but I’m wondering if something like ivermectin may be safe to try since there are known cancer treatment using it.

A quick update.
My reoccurrence was detected in May of this year.  After a few more tests and meeting with my “new” surgeon, we decided on a surgery date after our Scotland trip – early September.
I was talking to a high school buddy and he works with a renown oncologist who was willing to give me an opinion on whether surgery was necessary or if something like Brachytherapy * would be better.
He said that surgery would be the best option, but he suggested going back to the surgeon that did my last surgery, because he did a very good job.

So that particular surgeon was at the University of Michigan hospital, but left the practice about a year after my surgery.   Fortunately, he’s at a hospital about an hour south east of Ann Arbor in Ohio.  He’s also in my insurance plan!  I just had a virtual call with him and he was surprised that the UofM Surgeon had not scheduled any new imaging – it’s been about three months.
So, I have a couple new MRI’s and a PET scan to schedule.

The good new is that these tests will confirm whether or not the @haidut Niacinamide/Biotin/Thiamine/Aspirin therapy has worked.  I feel like it has (the lump I felt in my neck/trapezius has gone away).  I was worried that it could have worked but they would have still cut into my neck and removed whatever they found.
So I’ll know if a few days whether I need surgery or not!

*Brachytherapy is a form of radiation therapy where a sealed radiation source is placed inside or next to the area requiring treatment.  My friend reps this product and said that his biggest sales hurdle is the fact that Brachytherapy is less profitable than traditional radiation therapy and surgery 🙁

Oh man, the ideas are flowing…
-What about making hot dogs or sausage links using the tendon instead of fat?
-Or making an ice cream?  Sugar, flavoring and tendon?
-What about head cheese?  I’ve had it before and didn’t like it because the gelatin was too soft.   This would be quite firm and create a very different texture.

I think on it’s own, the cooked tendon may be too “chewey” and take time to get used to.

I’ve been considering that ever since you mentioned it in my cancer thread.   I had two concerns though – the first was my wife, and if she could tolerate the noise and inconvenience (or me sleeping in another bed/room) and the second is safety.  From what I understand, they remove oxygen to simulate altitude – what safety mechanisms are built in… to avoid not waking up 😉

Please keep us updated on your progress.

That’s good to know!  Do you take the  honey as if it were a medicine? A certain number of mg per Kg, or  liberally as wanted?

[Kevin007]

I’ve been taking aspirin, niacinamide, biotin and thiamine everyday since June second. My temps and pulse are up, I’m sleeping well and generally feel good!
I know the thiamine helps to increase CO2 and is something easy to buy and administer, however I just received a pack of acetazolamide (AcetaDiazol) from a Mexican pharmacy.
I’m assuming taking more carbonic anhydrase inhibitors cannot hurt, right?

I plan on taking 1/2 a pill (125m) along with the other supplements.  Anyone have thoughts, concerns or recommendations on this… more, less, timing etc.

thank you!

All these awesome protective plants!  I can start a garden with rosemary and Holy Basil… not sure a fig tree will grow in my climate😉

I do take cascara now, probably 3 capsules every other day.  It works!  I just prefer not taking every day.  Maybe I should though.
