Follow-up post immunotherapy
« on: May 08, 2017, 06:50:14 pm »
While I didn't have any specific results from immunotherapy, I just wanted to let everyone know that my mom has a tumor (not brain related) and she also started doing it. She just had her 4 month follow up and it shrunk from 1.56 CM to .77mm. She was crying with joy over the phone. Makes me wish I would have waited longer to see what my tumor would do.

I was referring to your statement "Makes me wish I would have waited longer to see what my tumor would do". I too wished that you waited longer to see what your tumor would do.

Good news about your Mom. What kind of immunotherapy did she do?

I think it's important to recognise the difference between immunotherapy and immunity boosters.
Immunotherapy is a fairly new branch of drugs that manipulate either the cancer or immune system to recognise the cancer.
What Wilbur is referring to is not immunotherapy but immunity boosters which are typically natural substances which may stimulate the immune system. Immunotherapy targets specific cancers, while immunity boosters are generic. Like most natural therapies there is on going debate as to how effective they are at stopping cancer

I posted about it here before. It is called 4Life transfer factor.
