Congratulations on the resolution of your tumor. What was your staging at initial diagnosis? What was the radiation therapy protocol and chemotherapy regimen that were used in you treatments? Were you also treated with an immuno-oncology agent like Keytruda or Opdivo? Also as hydrogen gas therapy has produced excellent responses in some patientswhile its use is still experimental. Where did you recieve this therapy? I think a lot of us in the group would like to know more about your experiences with hydrogen therapy.
Thanks

Dave

Here is the Chemo I received (4 treatments) ( CARBOplatin AUC 2 weekly / PACLitaxel WEEKLY ( with Radiation ) ( GI ). I also received 25 radiation treatments directly to the esophagus & stomach junction. The treatments began in late April, and continued through May. I received ALL of the Hydrogen (Hydroxy) treatments daily at my home. The machine that is pictured in one of my earlier posts, was supplied to me by Eagle Research.com, a Canadian firm. I also have 2 other Hydrogen generating machines that I built myself. Less elaborate, but Highly functional. I make it a habit to sit down at my desktop computer every morning for an hour and a half, and catch up on all my email and other things. During this time, I am inhaling the gas through a cannula. Early evening, when I sit to watch TV, I use one of my other machines and inhale Hydroxy again for a minimum of 2 hours. Both machines that I use are adjusted to produce 1/2 liter of gas per minute. For my particular body's absorption rate, this amount produces and maintains maximum Hydrogen/blood saturation within 4 minutes of commencement of inhalation. Both machines are also fully capable of producing HRW. Hydrogen Rich Water, but HRW seems to have a MUCH SLOWER absorption rate than inhalation. If you have any specific questions, I will gladly answer them.
The actual gas being inhaled is 2 parts Hydrogen (67%) and 1 part oxygen (33%)
