Alternative Medicine Clinics - travel to Mexico   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #418 of 437 |
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
