Hi all
Would like feedback on whether or not this sounds like a good idea and
if so, any comments on the clinics mentioned:
We live in New Zealand. My husband has just been diagnosed with
Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma - we don't know which type yet because we are
still waiting for the biopsy results but we do know it is stage III or
IV. Instead of having the chemo and radiation therapy which is all
that is offered here, we are thinking of traveling to Mexico for
Alternative Medicine treatment.
Presently looking at one of the following clinics:
CHIPSA,
Dr Donsbach's temporary clinic (Hospital Santa Monica closed at
present),
International Bio Care Hospital and Medical Center
Stellar Maris Clinic
We have no idea of the treatment costs yet so we don't know if we can
afford it. I certainly hope so, because we are very worried about
receiving solely chemo and radiation treatment.
Our GP is trying to talk us out of it, saying that if it really worked
then the doctor's themselves can make money out of it and would be
doing the same thing in America. It feels like we are going around in
circles at the moment and are not sure what to think. Reading
alternative treatment testimonials on the internet is very encouraging
but our GP has cast some doubt on it.
Any
input would be VERY much appreciated. Thanks.
Regards
Sharrea
