Again, nicolatwo, any actual research data that you may be able to direct any of us to would be appreciated. I'm just a non-caring MD, but I'm thinking about matters, for example, that can influence how someone may adequately, or not, deal with a cancer that is a now-curable form.

How many months, Dr. nicolatwo, do you recommend someone try a "natural" method if they have, say, thyroid or testicular cancer?

Both are 100% curable in their early stages, without surgery, by medical treatment.

I'm going to intercede here. I don't think this is the right forum to be debating treatment methods. It is strictly for informational purposes and we neither promote nor recommend any specific treatment modaltiy. Best for patients to consult their own physicians or medical specialists.

There is a clinic in San Francisco which teaches mindfulness to pain patients. The founder is Dr. Jon Kabat Zinn. He is recommended by PBS news reporter Bill Moyers. I recommend natural and holistic health techniques first before resorting to cortisone or other harsh medicines or interventions.

I've heard of Dr. Zinn and have read some of his books. He's very good.

This is a GREAT video, one that flat out states: Get a SECOND, if not a THIRD, A FOURTH, A FIFTH and so on opinion on something that MEDICAL Science can't seem to resolve.

I know first hand. As I have done just all the above.

And, more. Medical science is not at "this" time able to help me.

I will not give up hope or learning ways to COPE with my pain. After all it's up to me to choose how I react to it.

Nice work JNJhealth, very nice work.

Also, btw, with all due respect, I've probably been involved in mindfulness training since before you were born, unless you're past 40. Also have an MD and other letters after my real name. Also studied and practiced shiatzu and reiki before I started med school.

Just thought I'd mention that before you came back with the usual stereotyping I get, generally from people who've read a few books, not one's who've been accountable for life/death outcomes.

So, what's your training? Experience?

[DrHMFIC]

Perhaps you can also direct us to some actual research which shows this theory to be the actual case. I mean, if we're automatically going to assume medical doctors don't really know what they're talking about, exactly what makes these other people, who also call themselves "doctors" [pronounced, "competitors"], more reliable in their BELIEFS? (not, yelling, just emphasizing--everyone please stay calm :>] )

Also, what's your health training as you're giving health advice?

[nicolatwo]

For JNJhealth: Yes he is great.

If the immune system is not fully functioning, which is often caused by constipation, then the system can not heal the inflammation. There are always reasons why inflammation happens in the body. Bowel detox and meditation has brought thousands of patients back to complete health.

I also recommend Dr. Richard Schulze's book 20 steps to holistic health and his powerful herbal detox cures. His products are 100% organic or wild harvested. Pain is often a sign of inflammation in the system, which causes swelling and then pressing against nerves. The injury may have triggered an inflammation.
