In the meantime diet is a go, and next target is to work in some reasonable exercise (yuck). Homeopathy is further down the list for now.Steve Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06041213821291872054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8313536940893763171.post-64903155110959227422008-09-03T16:45:00.000-06:002008-09-03T16:45:00.000-06:00Steve, you are quickly becoming an expert on this ...Steve, you are quickly becoming an expert on this subject aren't you! That is a lot of information, so what's the bottom line? Do you just wait until the next examine? It sounds like you are doing everything possible to help yourself. I do believe dietary changes can help and they certainly won't hurt. Have you explored any homeopathic treatments or physicians?

It's the first time I've heard that they can actually observe the cancer regressing via the scope.
