@cxracer "... the medical community provided me with zero possible cancer combating protocols, medications, vitamins, or supplements, etc."

Maybe there's a reason for that.

Years ago, I had a hyperactive thyroid, so my endocrinologist killed it with radioactive iodine. A month later, a couple long -time friends told me that I was slightly slurring my words. I normally speak quickly when excited & thought they were imagining it. Then my parents noticed it.

My next endocrinologist visit confirmed that my thyroid level had dropped to zero & prescribed a thyroid supplement.

My point is, patients are the worst observers of their own medical conditions. It's not only the patients, but professional caregivers like nurses, doctors, etc. are not the best observers either. In normal "blind" studies, a patient doesn't know whether he/she is getting a trial treatment or a placebo. However, if his/her professional caregivers DO know, there is still a bias in evaluating the patient's condition.

This is why "double-blind" studies are the gold standard. Maybe the medical community understands that.

I'm reminded of the case of Steve McQueen:

From Google: "McQueen underwent a controversial program developed by William Donald Kelley, a former orthodontist who had his license revoked in 1976."

https://www.mesothelioma.com/blog/steve-mcqueen-and-mesothelioma-an-actor-and-veterans-last-battle/ -- Quotes:

"Many scientists regarded Dr. Kelly’s methods as quackery. Dr. Kelly’s spin on Gerson Therapy was based on the belief that all cancers stem from a lack of a pancreatic enzyme. This method of treatment centered around unorthodox methods, including: ...

"The treatment also included a daily dose of laetrile, a cancer drug created from the pits of apricots. The drug was never approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). The National Cancer Institute (NCI) described its use as ineffective and dangerous. In later studies, it was shown this type of therapy actually worsened the patient’s quality of life. As McQueen sought out this controversial treatment in Mexico, ...

"McQueen’s supposed recovery was short-lived. Although his American doctors previously warned McQueen that his heart wasn’t strong enough for surgery, his new doctors operated anyway. The surgery itself went smoothly. The doctors removed some tumors from his neck. But, McQueen died from cardiac arrest the next day. He was 50 years old."

To quote a very old saying, "The patient died, but the operation was a success."

@readandlearn "Maybe there's a reason for that."

Maybe, but if I have an option to be proactive on my end, I usually pursue it. Even if it's experimental. (I analyze the crud out of risk vs reward and ROI of protocols before implementation.)

As a lifelong competitive athlete and senior analyst, I'm extremely intuned with my body and mind. If something slips by my observational skills, I've got live-in loved ones who are quick to point it out.

Oh, I haven't mentioned this yet, but the pressurized air intubation during prostatectomy surgery popped my left lung like a balloon, (and probably came close to popping the right one as well.) The surgical staff assured me that my extreme heavy chest and high-pitched voice were normal and would dissipate shortly, so I didn't even stay overnight. Symptoms worsened by the next morning and I had a ton of air bubbles under the skin of my chest and neck. My urologist nurse recommended I go to the ER. My surgeon called me separately and reiterated that it was normal, but that I 'could' go to the ER if I wanted to. Collapsed lung! Lung tube inserted and a three-day stint in the hospital. I know, I know, these things happen, but this reinforces my opinion of the medical community. They don't know everything, and I'm silly if I don't act as my own best advocate and perform my own research. I trust but verify.

I cannot understand what that endocrinologist did. It is a fact that people that have their thyroid zapped have to take Levothyroxine daily, it replicates natural thyroid functioning, controlling metabolism, growth, and energy levels.

My wife had some thyroid problems and they considered killing it and told her she would have been on a daily pill for the rest of her life. Why didn’t your doctor know that fact?

Incredible!!!

Laetrile isn’t approved for anything and can cause cyanide poisoning. So many people go down to Mexico and take it, Only to find it is useless when they are about to die or their cancer gets significantly worse. I’ve been hearing about the bogus use of Laetrile for 30 or 40 years.

It is just HORRIBLE what that endo. did to you ! He should loose his license !!!
I can not believe it - to treat a patient and not follow up with tests and prescription for thyroid hormone replacement ! You could have died 😰😱 !!!! OMG
Just mind-boggling : (((
