    Wow. Very strong correlation between these common printing chemicals and CC.

    I’m so thrilled for you, Lisa!! The stereotactic rad seems to be the ticket for you (along with catching these early). God Blessed you again!

    Percy,
    This is really interesting. Cant wait to see hiw this kind of approach may apply to CC. My 88 year old Mom is in remission from bladder cancer after immunotherapy using the tuberculosis bacterium. They woukd flood her bladder w liquid containing inactive TB. have her hold it for a couple hours before urinating. this triggered immune response to attack bladder linkng (source of induced infection) which would attack and kill the cancer cells too. So cool!

    Kris,
    I agree with everyone…enjoy a few indulgences and don’t beat yourself up about it. You’re a special lady and I’m so glad you have friends there (and here) to lean on.

    Mary,
    I have no experience with SBRT but want to say hello and we understsnd your feelings. Lisa Craine has had stereotactic rad several times on different tumors has had good success with it. Hope you will contact her via this site to get some insight. Best to you and your health ! Willow

    €%#*€£¥!!! I’m adding my sentiment to yours…
    It is ironic that you’re too healthy for a treatment like ablation though it sounds like Dr Fong wants to keep it that way. I certainly see how phase 1 or 2 clinical trials don’t sound appealing now that you explained them. Please know you are in my thoughts as you meet with rad dr and make a decision for a plan of action.

    Hi Lisa,
    Sorry I’m not much help but want to wish you luck in getting to the bottom of the hives. My daughter developed a strawberry allergy about age 13. My sister developed shellfish allergy in her teens. I know Pam’s daughter Lauren had a bad run to a chemo agent but I didn’t think you were taking any lately.
    This is just a stN in ghe dark but Have you changed laundry detergent or used bleach without rinsing well? Even regular laundry det can be irritating. New low water machines don’t always rinse well so I use the extra rinse cycle. Also, many in my profession develop latex allergy but teaser things csuse more of a contact dermatitis , not hives. Take Care!
