they suck 340ml blood in 34 vials

so 120 ml for dc therapy, which i get back in 6 days.

and 200 ml for gamma delta cell therapy in 9 days.

had a sauna with ren, he looks great.

doing full body hyperthermia 4 hours today.

this is the worlds best medicine in my opinion, well the best i can find.

pm me if you got any questions.

hugs,

pete

ps my systemic inflamation just fell from 7 to 0.3 in week, these therapies are working, i cannot wait to see tumour markers this week, to see if the 50% fall continues

Good to know that I look great.  Actually feel quite good as well. Its very odd considering how little healthy liver I have left. Must be all the liver detox therapies. Working hard to stay this way. Its a full time job.

goodluck mike

your on the prayer list, mate.

are you doing preop cimetidine, heaps of coriolous, shitake.

for what its worth ask the surgeon to cut an save tumour samples for doctor chang in new york, get some shiiit hot vaccines made out of the surgery.

alas I may do hipec if my recurrence 2 does not respond to the german kitchen sink approach.

do some coffee enemas in the hospital, teach the nurses a few tricks, its should get a few smiles.

consider the retention enemas with probiotics a good one. the surgery decimates your gut bacteria. alot of preop planning for hipec. the lastest hipec trial is being done out of a german hospital, some about the style of hipec delivery post surgery.

I would seriously look at strategies to boost liver detox post surgery, google our standard lef supplements, I think you already have done this.

a heavy mushroom program is an equally good liver detox, than even good old milk thistle.

hang in their trooper, see you on the other side, hopefully in the 23rd century.

hugs always,

pete

ps thanks for replying, its fun being the csn outcast

 

 

Keeping a big enough sample is a very good idea. You need about 1cm3 for a single dendritic cell priming. It may give you another option down the road.

One thing to watch out for. Typically samples are put into parafin. This is ok for doing generic testing etc., but its useless for immunotherapy. For this you need the cells to be kept alive, eg: frozen.

Local hyperthermia vs to full body hyperthermia

Pete,

Are there any benefit of doing local hyperthermia? My husband has multiple mets in liver, lungs and a few in bones. I think he wouldn't be able to tolerate whole - body hyperthermia.

He is on Folfiri, Avastin & Zometa treatment now and I've heard that hyperthermia inhances the chemo unti-tumor kill.

Cheers,

Emma

 

 

Local hyperthermia is used when you have say mets in one location like the liver or lungs etc. Whole body is preferrable if there are mets in multiple locations.

dear emma i sincerely hope so

i have done 30 locals and 8 full bodies, its worth a consult with a doctor exoetienced with ht. using ht with chemo, immunothetapies delivers the best benefit i believe doing both beneficial. the higher temp from local radiowaves at 46 degrees for an hour with ozone or ndv is good. the other week i did fullbody with oxaliplatin. time will tell for me.

goodluck. i found sauna therapy a good intro to full body ht, i cope ok many dont, itsnot a one off miracle, i plan on some form of ht every week, but i am obsessive in the extreme and a touuch  focused or desperate, these thetapies have to work or i am up the creek without a paddle.

i have faith in these therapies, so few use them, in fact australias first heckel

sits largely unused in hobart, i was the first patient, an achievement i am proud of, it could treat 10 patients a week, potentialy offering reduced tumour burden, increased immune function, i am so frustrated by waste oppotunity, of wasted life

hugs,

pete

Hi Pete, 

as always in awe of all what you do and your energy. I so wish for you that it al works out ok. It is interesting for me to read the approach from the German specialist and if it all works, more power to you.

I am glad you stil post for the people among us who like to read and hear you progress.

great you got to meet with Ren we need all the support we can get, does not matter in what state we are of this decease.

when we are NED we worry and when we are reoccurring we worry, support is a big help.

take care friend, keep us posted,

hugs Marjan

Thank you Ren & Pete for a quick response!

My husband and I've been following your tough journey for a month or so and amazed by your courage and energy. Hope those therapies will work for you eventually, our thoughts with you guys!

As to ht, It's a good idea to start with sauna therapy first to see how my husband tolerates it.

Much love,

Emma

I personally think that hot baths when fully submerged in hot water is a much better preparation for hyperthermia. I find typical saunas harder to tolerate than the hypertherma treatment itself.
