Esophageal Cancer Treatment

A new technique is showing promise in saving the lives of people with cancer of the esophagus. It’s minimally invasive and the recovery time is quicker than ever. H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute in Tampa, Florida is leading the way in the laparoscopic esophagectomy. This is one of the fastest rising cancers in the United States. 14000 Americans are diagnosed every year. Moffitt’s Dr. Scott Kelley is one of the few surgeons in the country who performs the cutting edge procedure to treat esophageal cancer. Join us as we follow one man’s journey from diagnosis to treatment to recovery.

@PaTrIcIaJ By more harm than good I assume you mean the polio, smallpox, and measles vaccines,which have saved countless lives,treatments & cures, for cancer,effective cures for many contagious diseases,like typhoid and plague, insulin treatment for diabetes which has? enabled most to live normal lives, medications for epilepsy, medications to help symptoms of mental illnesses.Maybe you mean antibiotics like penicillin,which worldwide, have saved millions of people with bacterial infections.

@PaTrIcIaJAn22JuNe74 Jones in turn quotes articles, one dating back to 1926 and two from 1927. But even these very dated articles (with 651, 100, 64 and 100 cases) contradict his opinion.At any rate you are quoting a statistician not an oncologist.And he’s quoting studies from FIFTY YEARS? ago!Chemotherapy was in the very early stages.Alternative med. people like to drag out this quote. It’s meaningless.

@PaTrIcIaJAn22JuNe74Quotes by Hardin are linked to a presentation in 1956 this was more than 50 years ago when chemotherapy was in its early stagesThe article of 1956 contains statistical data related to treated and untreated patients with breast cancer.Jones in this article says: ‘It is most likely that, in terms of life? expectancy, the chance of survival is no better with than without treatment, and there is the possibility that treatment may make the survival time of cancer less”cont.

@PaTrIcIaJAn22JuNe74:? It’s probably all the toxins we are consuming from food and air. Humans are doing this to themselves.

My mom died of lung cancer and she deserved it, she should? have not smoked.

MANY people with Esophageal Cancer deserve it. They either drank too much, smoked too? much or failed to treat their acid reflux disease.

CANCER? CURE = RICK SIMPSON’S HEMP OIL

Everything You Know Is Wrong
p 299.
Among the other good news: Artemisinin only attacks iron-heavy cancerous cells, leaving alone normal cells; having been used for thousands of years, its safety is well-known; and the cost of the treatment is insanely cheap-$2 per dose. The bad news is that this low cost cuts both ways. Because there’s no profit in a natural, non-patentable cure, hospitals and? pharmaceutical companies will have no incentive to push it, so you may have to take the initiative.”
