We know that the treatments that the NHS have on offer to treat cancer have some dreadful side effects but the report from the Macmillan Charity today shows just what the extent of that is.
The BBC health page today.....
A report from the Macmillan Charity has shown that our NHS methods of treating cancer are causing hundreds of thousands of people to develop, chronic fatigue, pain,sexual and urinary difficulties etc when healthy cells are destroyed and damaged due to conventional cancer treatments.
Macmillan are proposing 'support' for this - after all, it is only support they have left to offer and I'm sure they would like your money to help them to do that!
But what if we didn't have to have these 'double edged sword' treatments. What if the figures that Macmillan have come up with don't have to be the case.
350.000 people left with sexual difficulties
240.000 left with mental health problems
150.000 urinary problems
90.000 constant diarrhoea and bleeding problems
New cancers to develop and the threat of the existing cancer recurring.
Vast increase in heart disease and osteoporosis etc etc.
It is proven that those that have had cancer will have more physical health problems than those that haven't.
Well to many of us, it isn't surprising.....we are not interested in treating the cancer we are interested in treating the person with cancer. That is the way that you can start to ensure the body is really addressing the changes that need to happen to get back to health and 'life' No point keeping putting healthy fish in sewage water and expect them to survive.
If cancer cells have developed the environment needs changing!
A group of therapist friends of mine have come together to do a sponsored walk for a fantastic charity call Yes to Life. www.yestolife.org.uk check them out!
We are 4 women of a certain age and this is a definite challenge for us. It will be a 25.5 mile walk from Kings Norton near Birmingham along the Stratford Upon Avon canal to Stratford.
Yes to Life support proven and effective methods of treating the person with cancer that help them regain their health. Methods that support the healthy cells and thus support recovery. Methods that engage the person into someone actively seeking to help their own body rather than being 'done to' This approach certainly leaves a person with no where to go after the hospital has decided they have done their bit.
Yes to Life say while you are alive, there is work to be done and a change can happen. They will support that change.
So please dig deep, this is a charity that supports the work that therapists and those in alternative medicine do and is at the fore front of integrative oncology in the UK
This charity doesn't fund research via drug companies, it is totally independent and there to support what ever the individual requires.
Pass the details on to whoever you think might want to support us also, we'll take anyone's money for them!
