Please e-mail me more info. My name is Christine and I am 31 years old. I have stage 4 cervical cancer.I have a 17 month old son. After my son was born,I had a really bad pap and my obgyn never informed me or sent me for more tests.For months after my son was born I complained to my doctor of abnormal bleeding,headaches,nausea,vomiting,weight loss and severe pain in my pelvic and lower back.Finally,10 more months had gone by and this time he did a polupectomy.All 5 specimins came back malignant and the cancer ,thanks to him ...had advanced to stage 4.It spread to my liver,lymph nodes and my spine.
I have been on three chemos including cisplatin,etopiside and one other.I have a rare type of cell called small cell carcinoma which spreads rapidly and is inoperable. So far I have had 7 rounds which to my oncologist is amazed that the tumors have shrunk more than 80%. When I was first diagnosed I was given 2 months to live if the chemo did not start working right away! I am greatful to be alive but I have a long way to go.(radiation,several months of lower dose chemo,etc...) I have been hospitalized with a fever of 105.3, I had six transfusions and the side effects from the chemo have caused neuropathy,severe constipation,migraines,constant vomiting,vision impairment and more.... I was hping to find alternatives to chemo.Could you please send some info? I would also like to chat.

The reason why so many younger women are getting this disease and others is
the toxic nature of the environment in which we live. We must alter the way
we live, eat organic living foods, drink purified water, meditate, do yoga,
get calm and connected to the peace within us and just live a lifestyle
filled with love and hope. If anyone would like to know more, I will be
happy to e-mail counsel any of you for free. Be wary of what medical
doctors tell you. They don't know everything. Their own fears are placed
on us. Be careful. Look for alternatives. Your body can heal itself if
you give it the right set of circumstances. DON'T JUST LET THEM CUT YOU
UNTIL YOU HAVE TRIED OTHER LESS INVASIVE MEANS OF HEALING.....ACUPUNCTURE,
HERBS, JUICE FASTS, COLON THERAPY AND MUCH, MUCH MORE.

Subject: [Cervical-Cancer] Hello.. new member..
Hello.. I found this website because I today I found out I have cervical
cancer. I'm a 20 yr old housewife from texas, just recently married in Dec.
of 04, with 3 beautiful step-children(whom we have custody of). I was once
pregnant but my son was stillborn on Christmas day of 02.I was quite shocked
to get diagnosed at my age, but I've noticed over the past couple of years
the statistics are showing that young women like me are getting cancer as
well. I was upset when I found out, but know that over the next few weeks,
treatment/procedures and surgery will help. I'm looking forward to making
new friends through this group who have been through what I'm about to be
going through. Thank you for welcoming me to your group.
Luv,
~Angel
