Death sentence is such a harsh word to use. Cancer is scary. But not a “death sentence”. It took three months to diagnose my very rare and unusual cancer. During those three months I went from being a very healthy young woman to nothing. I could do nothing for myself and I was sad to say at “Death’s Door”. I was told one more week of no diagnosis and I would not be here. With a lot of prayers and finally a woman who knew what she was looking for, my tumor was found. When I was told it was the “C” word. All I could do was ask, “How do we fix it?” I went through so many personal struggles. And I will say this much. If the cancer does not get you then the treatments will. They are not easy, they are no picnic. But after a week into Continue Reading

In the 1980s a cancer specialist from San Antonio, Texas, reported that cancer can be cured by the use of yoga. But most physicians refused to acknowledge the cure, said Col. Hansa Raval, M.D., a pathologist with the United States Army. Dr. Raval said her work in cytotechnology _ a diagnostic branch of medicine designed to pinpoint early stages of cancer _ was fruitless until she began researching the use of non-conventional methods of treatment.

There are a variety of treatments available in our modern society for the sufferers of cancer. The most common involves a combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy to eliminate the cancerous growth. This article will be focusing on the effects of chemotherapy on the buccal cavity (mouth), and the various procedures taken to reduce the impact of this particular treatment.

Chemotherapy involves the use of chemical substances, which are injected or taken orally to destroy malignant tissues and cells. These chemical substances are used to target and destroy rapidly dividing cells. However, the cells lining the mouth are also targeted, due to their fast dividing nature. As a result, the buccal cavity is highly susceptible to direct and indirect toxic effects of cancer Continue Reading

When nonseroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin, are combined with Piroxicam and cisplatin (CDDP) they produce an anti-tumoral treatment of cancerous cells, specifically malignant mesothelioma cancer cells. These results, published in May 2008 in the Journal of Translational Medicine, are getting plenty of attention by both scientists as well as victims of mesothelioma cancer. Prior to this study, the prognosis for malignant mesothelioma cancer was grim, even at best, but now, researchers are breaking open a can of worms that may provide treatment for the deadly cancer caused by the inhalation of asbestos dust.

While this study offers a slice of hope for victims, the further research is required. Scientists with this study also found that the potential for Continue Reading
