More Bad News: "Hormone Refractive"

Today, the onc said that the Faslodex shots weren't working (after five
shots, one a month), .... that the cancer markers were off the charts,
....

that the bone scan & tests showed active cancer (bone mets) in the spine
again, esp. at L5, (despite radiation treatments at three places in the
spine, this year, 2006), ....

& that there are basically no good treatments, nothing except for
chemotherapy, which has less than 25% chance of doing any good, .... & a
huge chance of doing even more harm & damage than it did the last time,
like destroying my heart in 2002 (major CHF). [And BTW, last time, the
chemo didn't help at all.]

[Now, I've got to somehow find & try alternative treatments, which is
all that's left. ???]

My health is very bad, & I'm in a very weakened condition at this point,
.... with the docs having not only failed me in cancer care, since they
started in late 2001, .... but only harmed, sickened & weakened me more,
cost me more, time after time, year after year.

This has been a total nightmare. Absolute hell.

At least the oncs have stopped lying, stopped trying to sell me the
treatments they know are total cr@p, those that had & have no chance of
working, .... those that are basically a very sadistic & expensive form
of cold-blooded murder, .... the worst pain, suffering, & loss of health
from PHARMA drugs, all the way to death.

It hurts a lot, to have been so badly betrayed & harmed by the Medical
Industry. I hope with all my heart (that is, what's left of it after
chemo), that class action lawsuits are brought against the Medical
Industry, & keep being brought, until it starts offering some legit med
care, .... until it stops doing so much harm, stops intentionally
causing so much pain, suffering & loss.

From what the doc said, "ER+ estrogen positive but hormone refractive",
means that no estrogen-blocking type meds will work on the cancer.

This morning, I've phoned to double-check, to make sure that this info
is correct.

It would help if the docs had tests up-front to determine this, instead
of doing so much harm with these meds over the years: Arimidex,
Tamoxifen, Femara, Faslodex & such.

And charging so many $$$ for it, .... for such totally harm-filled cr@p,
fraud.

So I got my health & heart further damaged, got lymphedema, .... went
thru about 18 months of the very worst health, which was almost
impossible to survive, & kept getting worse, .... for no good reason,
from the Arimidex?!

Dang!

If I don't survive to do it myself, then I hope that others bring class
action lawsuits about this. Sue the behinds off the PHARMA companies &
Medical Industry, for their sadistic sh*t.

Sue,

I'm so very sorry that this is happening to you, that things are so
difficult and the treatments so far not working. I'm thinking of you and
hoping you'll find something that can help you.

==================

Thank you!

It hurts so bad, to suffer to death this way.
While the physical pain is overwhelmingly bad (off the charts!), the
emotional pain is even worse.

So many lies & betrayals, so much harm done, & no one in the medical
community being held accountable for it, being forced to change. The
same bad & harmful things are done to patients, over & over.

So much unnecessary loss & waste, in every way.

At least I (& others) spoke up & out about it, despite the verbal
attacks, jeers & ridicule. At least we have the internet now, a place to
speak up, inform each other.

At least others with cancer, can make wiser choices about their
treatments, than I have. [The first rule? Don't trust the docs.]

But it still hurts. Esp. the pain from the harm the docs did. Esp. that.
