In July 2009 I was diagnosed with breast cancer over the phone. I remember arguing with the pathologist that some horrible mistake must have happened because I could not have breast cancer. Unfortunately it was true and my journey was just beginning.
A lumpectomy followed and I was given the diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma and triple negative breast cancer grade 3 with micromets in one lymph node. Of course the recommended course was chemotherapy and radiation. I refused to have the chemotherapy and was not sure about the radiation treatment. I felt I must research everything thoroughly to make sure my decisions that I made were the right decisions.
My heart knew what I was about to embark upon and that was naturopathic medicine. I felt that traditional medicine was not the right path for me at that time. I called naturopaths and asked what my diet should be and the answer was plant food. I also talked with several naturopaths and found one in my state that gave vitamin c infusions which I started immediately every week.
Within 3 weeks of my lumpectomy another lump serviced. Another biopsy showed it to have cancer cells at the margin. My surgeon was upset that I hadn’t done chemo or radiation and wanted me to have a mastectomy. After flying to Phoenix and having more naturopathic treatment I decided to have a third surgery to see if there was any more cancer.
The results showed no cancer.
I contacted a naturopathic oncologist in Scottsdale, Arizona and had an integrative protocol while going through radiation. My protocol was powerful and I suffered no side effects and felt strong. Since that time I have been under the naturopathic oncologist’s care and my blood work up is excellent. My natural killer cells are at a good level and all blood work shows normal ranges.
I exercise 5x a week, lift weights, do kettle bell training, eat plant food, reduce my stress by gamma brain wave cd’s and love life. I also suffered zero side effects. I am alive and well and did not lose my left breast. Natural medicine saved my life and today I am a vital, healthy breast cancer survivor.
