patientlywaiting right you are.

Well, I am actually feeling better thanks to simple stuff that I am trying to help me with pain and breathing. Something as simple as a hot water bottle and sodium bicarbonate seem to be working.

OR, as we read about dying, patient at the end of those last two weeks prior to death apparently feels better. We will find out, provided that those who censor this board will allow me to get away with description of my journey.

I never expected in my wildest dreams that I will be in position KNOWING that I am dying and also to have an opportunity to share my experience with fellow investors. Please bear with me, since I can't tell on my own if my brain is slowly turning into scrambled eggs.

Here we go.

I have not seen any comments about the video which CP made available to you. Possibly, since we all are in a hurry going nowhere, those who opened it, got bored within the first few minutes. I made that mistake when I found this in the summer after I was diagnosed, so no surprise here. Part of our so called Due Diligence is to gather as much info about cancer and treatments. This video will open your eyes wide open, if you dedicate 90 minutes of your time to the BETTER understanding of what patientlywaiting just posted about.



Lets get to that hot water bottle now.
I have found following article while browsing internet, copied and saved it, but I forgot to save link to it.

Too bad, but here it is:

Treatment with infrared therapy (with BioMats) provides thermotherapy that can be effective for all cancers for it raises low body temperature dramatically increasing the immune system’s ability to clear the body of cancer. According to Professor Abo Touru of Nagata University our immune functions are improved by 40% when we increase our body temperature by 1 degree. Infrared heat (light induced heat) relieves pain by expanding blood vessels and increasing blood circulation. Better circulation carries off metabolic waste products and delivers oxygen-rich blood to oxygen depleted cells, reduces pain and speeds up the healing process.

Thursday evening I submerged my whole body in the big bath tub with hot water loaded with one pound of soda bicarbonate for full 90 minutes. I am convinced that I managed to overheat my body by at least 1 degree. YES, I am aware of possible danger to be in hot water for so long, but remember that I have nothing to lose, since I am dying anyway. After I dried myself, then as I was sitting at the table I sweated profusely for a while. Were toxins getting out? Don't know.

Friday morning when I opened my eyes, I immediately noticed that that gurgling noise coming out of my throat each time I woke up WAS GONE and I was breathing better. Step in right direction? Maybe. Most of the Friday the pain in my rib cage and other bones was nasty and as of now I think that I know why. Thursday evening I overindulge myself by eating way, way too much of steak tartare. Overnight that meat in my tummy turned acidic and that acidity in turn influenced the pH level and increased an inflammation. Isn't this something that we read on this board before? Doesn't inflammation leads to the cancers? So a teaspoon of soda bicarbonate in 25 ml of water 5 times during Friday definitely helped.

Since my mobility is now also limited I do spend way much time, unfortunately in horizontal position, on the chesterfield watching TV and that is where that hot water bottle comes handy soothing rib cage pain and since i keep it in the same places for a long period of time, maybe I am "cooking" my tumours by that extra +1 degree magic. Not sure about it, but it certainly lowered the pain level by now.My dear angel is refreshing hot water bottle as often as necessary since during the times when I do sleep, the water bottle is now always by my side.

BTW, I do take one pain killer pill every 8 hours religiously. One pomegranate every day, big, big cup of Greek yogurt and wild berries during my nightly vigils when I can't sleep, bowel of grated raw carrot mixed with grated apple, etc. Other than that I do eat normal food, but in smaller portions, since my appetite is in shambles.. Trying to drink plenty of water, while staying away from red wine.

I hope that some of you can learn something from my journey to heaven.
