Tijuana - Day 19

Two more wake-ups!

A week ago, I wasn't sure if I was ready to leave, but I am now.  I have learned a lot.  My head is clearer so I am able to retain more every day.  Ready to get home and organize again so my healing can continue.  I have talked to most patients and I think a year is a good timeline for complete, complete healing.  That includes, physical, mental, detoxes, etc.

I got my first Rigvir shot in my left shoulder.  Hurt, but not horribly.  They will be rotated: left shoulder, left hip, right hip, right shoulder, and repeat.

I will get an MRI of the head after that.  Right before I come back to Hope4Cancer for my follow-i[ visit.

When you first meet someone, you ask the same questions:  Is this your first visit or your follow-up?  What day are you on?  No one ever says the C-word in the same sentence as their name.  So the questions you ask are:  What brought you here?  What were your symptoms?  Did you do any Western protocols?

When you find out they are leaving, you ask what kind of results they have had.

You get an Ultrasound, xrays, bloodwork, and a Thermograpy when you first get here.  Then right before you leave.  So you leave with comparable results.

I have heard: "Clear."  "No blood supply to any tumors." (I didn't know, but that means the tumor is in necrosis (dying!)) "80% shrinkage."  And most of the time, this is after only three weeks!

For me, the only way to know is with an MRI.  None of the above things can be done for the head.  They can send me for an MRI here, but it would be out of pocket.  I will get one at home where my insurance will pay for it. So.....that means I won't leave with as much information on what the lesions are doing.  I can only go by my symptoms.  I talked with Dr. Curiel and Dr. Ojada and they both said that the fact that my symptoms are alleviating, we can only assume that they are shrinking.  I will take it!

I could get an MRI as soon as I get home, but I would rather wait.  I will let all the meds do their work, including the Rigvir that I JUST started taking, and then test before I come here.  I will probably make that appointment as soon as I make the appointment to come back here.  I will let everyone know so we can start sending good vibes for that scan.
