    Celeste, I was in to this alkaline treatments for a while, though not with cesium. Till I found out there is no evidence.
    To prevent the body form being to acid I avoid meat and a eat vegetarian (+fish sometimes).
    The pH in the body is constantly regulated by the body itself using different mechanisms. There is some harsh side-effects using alkalines as well.

    I really hope your scan turnes out to be just fine – I find your story VERY encouraging!!!! Please let us know!!!!

    EXPERIMENTAL??? Here in the best liver-center in Sweden ALL CC-patients go through this now, if possible. Often combined with chemo, and often as neoadjuvant therapy, if resection not is an option. There is a lot of evidence of the effiency, publicated in scientific journals. (Pubmed)

    As a nurse I really think Lainy and Marion has a point here… Symtoms of a liver put under too much pressure. He should be in hospital in my opinion. Esopheagal varices is not a joke. Chemo in this situation sounds like a bad idea!! How are his ASAT/ALAT?
    Hoping everything will turn out ok!
