appreciate all the information you ve given me.  how is it that you are able to experiment with doctors and experts.  where i come from, you go to the doctor, and he tells you what he wants you to do…there s no option for experimentation.  i ve been to 3 different oncologist meetings, and they have all said that the only option, open to me, is chemo and radiation.  i would rather be treated by hyperthermia with low dose radiation , but from what i understand, that s only common-place in germany and out in california at the http://www.bichercancerinstitute.com/ and my medical insurance doesn t recognize it as being necessary.    about the potassium ascorbate and ribose, i found a file regarding a study that was done on it, and i was wondering if the information that is contained in it is consistent with what you know of it.  and, when you say that i need to use extracts of these mushrooms , do you mean as in supplement form?    for diet, i have(for breakfast) 1 ,all-natural, whole egg along with 3 more egg whites…either hard-boiled or poached on millet bread toasted with organic flax seed on the toast(about 2 table-spoons on each piece of toast) and some organic oatmeal made from organic rolled oats with fruit cut up in it(organic raspberries, strawberries, grapes) and 99% fat free, thin-sliced, all natural(natures promise) turkey cutlets…4-5 oz. and some organic tea with stevia leaf sweetner for dinner, steamed broccoli, carrots and sometimes squash with natures promise turkey of some kind and sometimes banana bread made with stevia and brown-rice flower.   all sugar has been eliminated, and the only meat i eat is some form of nature s promise turkey. you mentioned good fats from fish…does that mean that fish isn t considered a meat that needs to be eliminated? when you say, eat only biologic (better if biodynamic) food.   is that another way of saying, organic food ? if i were to grow my own aloe plant, it would have to be indoors as it will be cold here for the next 5 months. i ve attached a list of all of the supplements i m currently taking i m already eating the quinoa and the millet bread, and use baking soda in our spring water to keep it alkaline, and try not to eat foods that are acid-forming. that s all i can think of right now…thank you again for communicating with me.  take care, michael   from: salvatore iaconesi

on sharing my info dear michael,first of all, i m close to you and wish you will get better soon.i have been researching a lot lately, and experimenting together with a group of doctors and experts. some of the things i found out have had really good effects. but please be aware that different types of cancer can react in radically different ways to the same strategies.but here s what i found: i hope it helps you. first of all, potassium ascorbate and ribose. there should be someone which is able to define a dosage which is suitable for your condition (i have found the pantellini foundation in italy, which provides this service for you for about 100euros). in many, many cases ascorbate an ribose definitely slow down (or stop, or, sometimes, even reverse) your cancer growth. it is cheap and it works (at least in slowing down the growth), and allows you to have more time to find other strategies, and to combine it with them. potassium ascorbate can be associated with some medical mushrooms from japan and brasil.for example i am using the maitake and agaricus blazei murrill. you have to use extracts of these mushrooms (otherwise you would have to eat dozens of pounds of them), and please, if you do, be aware of the origin of the mushrooms: this spanish company, for example, http://www.micosalud.com/ uses extreme care in picking, maintaining, handling, shipping the mushrooms, guaranteeing only complete biologic, biodynamic products to be used, and a complete product lifecycle control. these mushrooms are a bit more expensive, but not as much as chemo or radiotherapy. you have to take them for at least 2-3months, and they cost about 100euros each month.then, one advice: try to limit as much as possible the ct scans and pet scans you do. they emit way too much radiation and can actually help your cancer to grow. try to suggest your doctors that they do magnetic resonances, instead. then, about diet: what exactly are you doing? i have found out that you need to completely eliminate meat (of any kind) and sugars. sugars, specifically, can be found in many unexpected places (in pizza, in tomato soups, in industrially produced foods… almost everywhere). sugars can also be really complex, for example under the form of charbohydrates (pasta, pizza, hamburger buns…): you have to completely eliminate them, as well. this is not that easy, as you completely have t avoid anything which contains sugars in simple and complex form, and help your body to switch metabolism and use other things for its energy, instead: good fats coming from vegetables (lentils, beans, soya, seeds…) or, at most, from fish . *take extreme care in choosing what you eat*! eat only biologic (better if biodynamic) food.this will probably cut out the products you find in all supermarkets and large distributions.  eat as many bitter-tasting, wide-leaf vegetables as possible: radish, watercress, broccoli, cauliflower, and their families of vegetableseat asparagus as many days as possible avoid potatoes, tomatoes, pepperoni, eggplant.don t dring any milk! don t eat any form of cheese! be careful, as milk can be found in many products (also under the form of lactose): avoid them at all cost! milk contains growth factors.  try to have 1 or a couple of days of abstinence from food each week. when you do, make yourself lots of vegetable extracts to drink: at least one each hour. don t do them with a blender, find something to press them, to squeeze their juices out. something like an hydraulic press. they sell these for thousands of euros, but for example i found one for 20euros which is commonly used to press olives. it works great: it has a large screw in the middle, which you wind to lower a metal plate over the vegetables, until you squeeze them so much that they remain completely dry. make sure about the origins of the vegetables you use for this, as if you use vegetables which were cultivated using chemicals, you actually have the risk of drinking them in this kind of extracts. so only biologic or, better, biodynamic don t use any refined flours. use only whole flours, and try to use rice flour, or chickpea flour.no pasta. cereals only in wholegrain form. eat millet, couscous, quinoa, instead of pasta. as for what else you *can* eat, be creative, otherwise you will get depressed by not eating all these things.you can actually make your own stuff, and you will spend less and eat better. you can use biologic honey (not a lot) instead of sugars, or malt. make cookies using whole flour, bio dried raisins and bio apple juice and malt instead of sugar. you can put soja beans (watch out for ogm) or chickpeas (easier) in water for 2 days, then press them in a mortar, put them in a cloth, pour hot (not boiling) water onto them, close and squeeze the cloth and extract a “milk” from them (that is how soja milk is made, using soja beans). i even use the “milk” extracted like this to make cheeses and besciamel sauce. and so on… possibilities are endless and you can eat wonderful stuff. look for vegan recipes on the web. and make sure about the origin of what you eat, or produce it yourself. then, moving on.these things will probably slow down your cancer growth (or even stop it if you re lucky).this gives you time and possibilities. at this point you should really make a choice: chemo and radiation therapy are really hard on you, but sometimes they can be helpful. and you can use acupuncture and qicong to detox your body quickly and to drastically diminish pain and side effects. sometimes surgery can be used.sometimes a therapy which works on immunology can be used with great effects. for example i found in germany a team of experts who takes a sample of your blood, uses it to synthesize interferon ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/interferon ) and interleukin ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/interleukin ) which support your body immune system to reject all “strangers” such as cancer cells. combined with substances which augment the differentiation of cells (such as the zebra fish extracts http://www.redonda.it/portal/it/handle/?page=homepage  and http://www.farmaciadigitale.it/index.php/tono-ed-energia/synchro-levels-integratore-30-ml.html ) this can really help destroy cancer cells, naturally and with no side effects. there is 4% possibility that this will make your cancer grow back.you can combine these kinds of actions with fitotherapies, for example with curcuma/tumeric, graviola, aloe arborescens (try to grow your own aloe plant, and to produce your syrup yourself: take the leaves out at night or in the dark, crush them with lots of honey, put in dark jar, eat 2 teaspoons each day, and grow the dosages as you go along, reaching 7-10 spoons each day; watch out if you notice you don t go to the bathroom for some days: don t worry, stop for a few days and then when you do start again) and lots of other things. you should definitely support an alkaline environment in your body. you can do this with food, but also using chemicals: for example i use basenpulver integrator for this, to boost the alkaline environment in my body. use the magnesium supreme and galium ( http://www.merqurio.net/newsletter/demguna/demgu2/galium.pdf )  to support detoxing of your body. usually magnesium is made under the form of a citrate: if you take the mushrooms, take them at least 8-10 hours apart from this, as they work much worse in presence of vitamin c. this is what is working for me. all combined. try not to “do it yourself”. ask for help. it is important not to do “everything” which is available. it is important to, maybe, try out several things, but which go into the same direction, giving a strong, healing, harmonious message to your body, pushing in the same way/strategy towards you getting better. all this which i m telling you is the result of a combined effort of many people/doctors/oncologists/traditional doctors/nutritionists, working together on my case. please be aware that some information may not apply to your specific cancer. if you find something interesting, or if you would like to talk a bit more, please write back!i wish you all the best,salvatoreon sat, nov 24, 2012 at 5:05 am, michael allen <michael2k_03@yahoo.com> wrote: hello salvatore laconesi,                                         i hope you are doing well.  i learned of your experience from a friend who suggested that i start a blog telling about my cancer experience.  i thought that i would try and contact you and see if there was anything that i could learn from you regarding sharing my info with the world.  i ve been to 3 different oncologists who all say that the only thing i can do is to have chemo and full dose radiation.  i ve done a lot of research on chemo and radiation.  the radiation doesn t seem half as bad as the chemo.  many have died from accidental overdoses of chemo.  i wanted to try hyperthermia with low dose radiation , but it s only being done out in california for the type of cancer that i have, and my insurance will not cover it.  i ve been trying to fight it with diet, supplements and heat.  the most recent ct scan shows that it s still growing regardless of the diet and supplements.  the heat(using a full spectrum infrared sauna) has only been in affect for a month shortly prior to the last ct scan, so i ll not know if that is having a positive affect for another 2 months when the next ct scan will be done if the insurance covers it.         i live with my son, michael jr. who is 28 yrs. old.  he has add and asperger s syndrome which makes it very hard for him make and keep friends.  he s very smart though and is working on his comptia a+ certification for it support.  i was let go from my job as it support staff for a small computer repair shop last august when business started slowing down and my son  and i have been trying to put together a home-based computer repair shop, but so far, we have only 1 regular client and do what we can selling computers on ebay.  i really don t know which way to go, treatment-wise, if the sauna treatments don t show any promise.  i ve attached my biopsy, ct scan and pet scan reports.  i have the image files also, but don t know if i can attach them all there s so many of them in jpg and png formats.  i ll try to attach them in several separate emails.  i appreciate any help in my endeavor to share my info with the world.  i don t want to leave this world, just yet, as currently, my son has only myself, my parents (who are in their 80s) and my sister, and he still needs someone to keep him motivated and moving in the right direction…thank you, in advance, for anything i can learn from you relating to getting my info out to the world…take care and god bless your efforts and recovery, michael
