Breast Cancer Treatment

Breast cancer is defined as cancer which originates from breast tissue. Breast cancer is the major cause of death now days in middle aged women around the world. Ingestion of contaminated pork by malnourished youngsters who normally take protein-deficient vegetarian food regimen causes elaboration of beta-enterotoxin.

The good news is that most breast lumps are not cancer, but it is still important to be knowledgeable about this widespread disease.

Radiation is a proven cause of breast cancer, and some studies link breast cancer with heredity, dietary choices, obesity and allopathic hormones (allopathic birth control pills).

Cancers in general have also been associated with numerous chemical carcinogens and non-ionizing radiation (EMF). The best way to fight breast cancer is through early detection.

A recent study of over 4700 women  (2056 previously diagnosed with breast cancer, 2674 never diagnosed with breast cancer) indicated that there was a positive correlation between breast cancer and the length of time that women wore bras per day.

Those who wore a bra all day-long (defined in the study as any period more than 12 hours) had statistically 21 times greater risk of breast cancer than those who only wore a bra for only part of the day (defined in the study as any period up to 12 hours).
Women who wore their bras all day and night (essentially 24 hours per day) had a 5 times greater chance of developing breast cancer than those who wore it all day-long.

Wearing a bra may constrict the flow of lymph fluid in the breast, which then causes the higher risk of breast cancer.

Lymph fluid is the natural watery fluid which surrounds and bathes cells in body tissues.  Lymph fluid carries disease-fighting cells and helps remove accumulated toxins, some of which may be carcinogenic (cancer-causing).

The impaired flow of lymph fluid is thought to allow toxins to build up, thus causing breast tissue cells to be exposed to higher concentrations of cancer-causing toxins for longer periods of time. The study suggested that women wear their bras for fewer hours, thus giving their breasts time to “recover” and also not wearing bras that feel constrictive or tight.

Potential Link Between Aluminum Salts In Deodorants And Breast Cancer

Chemicals that mimic the body’s natural hormone estrogen’s are known to affect a woman’s risk of breast cancer. Evidence is mounting that the aluminum-based compound (especially talcum powders, makeup powders), which often makes up quarter of the volume of some antiperspirant agents, can break through the skin and that once in the body it could mimic estrogen.

Over recent years scientists have found that many compounds in the environment mimic or interfere with estrogen. These compounds are normally complex molecules and are found in many plants, and used in materials like detergents, pesticides and plastics. Now scientists are realizing that a variety of simple metal ions, including aluminum and cadmium can also bind to the body’s estrogen-receptors and influence their action.

“Since estrogen is known to be involved in the development and progression of breast cancer, any components of the environment that have estrogenic activity and which can enter the human breast could theoretically influence a woman’s risk of breast cancer,” says author of the review Dr Qaisar Ahmed MD, DHMS K.P.K, Pakistan.

Aluminum salts are a major source of exposure to aluminum in humans. It is often apply/sprayed into armpits, inadvertently concentrating exposure near to the breast. In addition, it is often applied immediately after shaving, when the skin is likely to be damaged and less able to keep the aluminum out.

Smoking tobacco introduces cadmium into the body, and research shows that it too can collect in breast tissue. There are indications that this accumulation of cadmium may also be linked to an increased risk of breast cancer.

“Each of these agents on their own may not have a powerful effect, but we need to see what happens when a number of them act together?” it could be that this would have a significant effect on diseases like breast cancer,” says Dr Qaisar Ahmed.

A different study examining the frequency of underarm shaving and antiperspirant/deodorant use among 437 breast cancer survivors was released in 2003. This study found that the age of breast cancer diagnosis was significantly lower in women who used these products and shaved their underarms more frequently. Furthermore, women who began both of these underarm hygiene habits before 16 years of age were diagnosed with breast cancer at an earlier age than those who began these habits later.

While these results suggest that underarm shaving with the use of antiperspirants/deodorants may be related to breast cancer, it does not demonstrate a conclusive link between these underarm hygiene habits and breast cancer.

Other research has focused on certain preservatives (parabens) that are used in deodorants and antiperspirants, as well as many cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical products. Parabens have been shown to mimic the activity of estrogen in the body’s cells.

Because estrogen promotes the growth of breast cancer cells, some scientists have suggested that the use of deodorants or antiperspirants could cause the accumulation of parabens in breast tissues, which may contribute to the development of breast cancer.

Results of the study, the first population-based investigation of the relationship between breast-cancer risk and exposure to light at night as determined by sleep habits, bedroom lighting and graveyard-shift work, there have been a number of studies looking at the health effects of night-shift work, from heart disease to stomach ailments, this is the first that has looked comprehensively at both graveyard-shift work and light at night as independent risk factors for breast cancer.

The link between sleep, light at night and breast cancer may involve melatonin, a hormone produced by the brain’s pineal gland. Production of melatonin peaks at night during sleep. One theory is that nighttime sleep deprivation or exposure to light at night somehow interrupts melatonin production, which in turn stimulates the ovaries to kick out extra estrogen – a well known hormonal promoter of breast cancer.

Indirect support of the melatonin/breast cancer connection comes from an earlier study of blind women, who were found to have a 20 percent to 50 percent reduced risk of breast cancer as compared to a comparison group of women diagnosed with stroke and cardiovascular disease.

The theory behind this reduced risk: Because blind women are immune to fluctuations in light, their melatonin levels remain constant, which also keeps their circulating estrogen levels in check.

Breast cancer is the second most carcinoma site of cancer in women; onset of breast cancer is more common after age 30. Age and health history can affect the risk of developing breast cancer. Fertility, ovarian function, and estrogen exposure play a role in the onset of breast cancer.

Exposure to diets that produce high levels of estrogen seems to be most important in utero and after menopause; high estrogen levels during reproductive years seem to be protective. Breast cancer may be related to oxidative stress.

Obesity and western dietary patterns may independently provoke hyperinsulinemia insulin resistance at puberty. In teen girls, anovulation may decrease breast cancer.

Breast cancer can be treated effectively, especially when it is diagnosed in early stages. Tumors are frequently found in the upper/outer quadrant of the breast and nipple area, in early stages, a single nontender, firm, or hard mass with poorly defined margins may exist.

Later, skin or nipple retraction, axillary lymphadenopathy, breast enlargement, redness, mild edema, and pain may occur. In late stages, ulceration, moderate edema, and metastasis to bone, liver, or brain are common.

Endocrinal cause – longer the cumulative period of menstruation more the risk (early menarche and late menopause)

• More the cumulative period of lactation better the protection

• More abortion and each occurring later increases risk

• More estrogen content in OCP and OCP taken early in the reproductive life (before first pregnancy)  increases risk
• Hormonal replacement therapy increases risk if the estrogen content is higher and if taken more than 5 years.

Signs and Symptoms of breast cancer

• Changes in size and shape of the breast.
• Lump in the breast is the most common presentation. It could be hard and irregular but can also be firm.
• Swelling and redness of the breast.
• Bleeding from nipple is an uncommon symptom of breast cancer, it involves multiple ducts.
• Nipple tender, red, ulcerated, inverted with discharge.
• Fixation of the skin, ulceration, peau d’ orange, fixation to chest wall and pectorals occurs late.
• Areola becomes thick with presence of peau d’orange.
• Puckering or dimpling of skin over the breast.
• Bone pains in case of bony metastasis.  About 5% of patients present with bony metastasis giving rise to bony pains.

Diagnosing Breast Cancer

Investigations mainly include

• Complete blood count – Hb% may be decreases.

• Chest X-ray – to rule out pulmonary secondary, or effusion, mediastinal widening

• Ultrasound – of the breast to detect solid cystic lesion. It is indicated in patients less than 40 years of age.

• Abdominal ultrasonography – is done to rule out secondary in the liver, ascites, recto-uterine deposits.

• FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology) – is quick, safe, easy method in which a cytological diagnosis can be made.

• Mammography – it should always be combined with clinical examination.

Allopathic treatment of Breast Cancer

All we know that treatment of breast cancer depends upon conditions or stage of cancer.

Breast cancer treatment with surgical and allopathic mode of treatment – Mainly include surgery, Radio therapy, immunotherapy and chemotherapy.

Homeopathic Treatment of Breast Cancer

In the Breast Cancer Treatment the selection of remedy is based upon the theory of individualization and symptoms similarity by using holistic approach.

This is the only way through which a state of complete health can be regained by removing all the sign and symptoms from which the patient is suffering.

The aim of homeopathy is not only to treat breast cancer but to address its underlying cause and individual susceptibility.

That’s the astonishing claim of controversial folk healer Jim Kelmun treat cancers with a little baking soda and maple syrup !

{Mix one part baking soda with three parts maple syrup in a small saucepan.
Stir briskly.
Heat for five minutes.
Take one teaspoon daily, as needed}.

Sodium bicarbonate is safe, extremely inexpensive and unstoppably effective when it comes to cancer tissues. It’s an irresistible chemical, cyanide to cancer cells for it hits the cancer cells with a shock wave of alkalinity, which allows much more oxygen into the cancer cells than they can tolerate.

Cancer cells cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen. Sodium bicarbonate is, for all intent and purposes, an instant killer of tumors. The extracellular (interstitial) pH (pHe) of solid tumors is significantly more acidic compared to normal tissues.

PH controls the speed of our body’s biochemical reactions. It does this by controlling the speed of enzyme activity as well as the speed that electricity moves through our body. The higher (more alkaline) the pH of a substance or solution, the more electrical resistance that substance or solution holds. Therefore, electricity travels slower with higher pH.

If we say something has an acid pH, we are saying it is hot and fast. Alkaline pH on the other hand, biochemically speaking, is slow and cool.

When oxygen enters an acid solution it can combine with H+ ions to form water. Oxygen helps to neutralize the acid, while at the same time the acid prevents oxygen from reaching the tissues that need it. Acidic tissues are devoid of free oxygen. An alkaline solution is just the reverse. Two hydroxyl ions (OH-) can combine to produce one water molecule and one oxygen atom. In other words, an alkaline solution can provide oxygen to the tissues.

At a pH slightly above 7.4 cancer cells become dormant and at pH 8.5 cancer cells will die while healthy cells will live.

Sodium carbonate has been found effective in treating poisoning or overdose from many chemicals and allopathic/pharmaceutical drugs by negating the cardiotoxic and neurotoxic effects. Sodium bicarbonate is useful in treating neurological disorders in children.

Sodium and potassium bicarbonate helps to neutralize excess acids of any kind.

Part of any successful cancer treatment includes chelation and detoxification of heavy metals and a host of toxic chemicals (like mercury, uranium contamination is increasing, lead we are discovering is even more toxic than anyone ever believed and is even in the bread that we eat, arsenic is in broiler chicken, fluoride, chlorine is breathed in most showers etc).

The IMVA recommends alkaline foods and sodium bicarbonate so that the pH of the blood remains high, which in turn means that the blood is capable of carrying more oxygen. This in turn keeps every cell in the body at peak efficiency and helps the cell eliminate waste products. Detoxification and chelation will proceed more easily and safely under slightly alkaline conditions.

Increased urinary pH reduces oxidative injury in the kidney so it behooves us to work clinically with bicarbonate.

For individualized remedy selection and treatment, the patient should consult a qualified homeopathic doctor in person. Some important remedies are given below for breast cancer treatment:

Hydrastis, Phytolacca, alumen, conium, calendula and many other medicines

Conium Maculatum

Conium maculatum is a excellent medicine for breast cancer where mammary glands are hard and sore. A typical breast cancer that is scirrhous adenocarcinomas, which begins in the ducts and invades the parenchyma. Sometimes the condition is associated with the inflammation of breast tissue.

The region is hard and nodular, tender to touch. Piercing pains, worse at night. Burning and stinging type of pain in the breast. The skin over the tumor is adherent.

Occasionally there is discharge of pus from nipple. The lesion is hard, almost cartilaginous. The edges are distinct serrated and irregular, associated with productive fibrosis. the breasts are painful even to the touch of the clothes or the jar of walking. Cancer after injury (like a blow) or trauma to breast.

Baryta carb

Inflammation, indurations and enlargement is the fundamental pathogenesis of Baryta carbonica. The mammary gland is enlarged and it is lumped, hard, stony in nature, very sensitive to touch, glands which are enlarged are tender with infiltration.

Patient present as lobular but not serrated mass with firm rubbery consistency. Their edges are sharply defined. Most commonly the tumors are solitary or occasionally be multiple. A bloody nipple discharge is indication of this drug.

Hydrastis canadensis

The patient have tendency to indurated glands. Swelling of the mammary glands, complaints of pain and tenderness, engorged nipples, cracks and watery or serosanguinous discharges.

Iodium

Iodum predominantly acts on the enlargement of the mammary gland which may be malignant. The mucus membrane of the glands and the breast tissue are inflamed. The breast tissue is hypertrophied, enlarged, hard and nodular. Tumors are well differentiated.

Cadmium

Yellow fever, where, with exhaustion, vomiting, and extreme prostration, the disease runs deathward. Important gastric symptoms.

Carcinoma ventriculi; persistent vomiting. Tightness of a muscle, tumors, polypus. Caries of nasal bones. Boils on nose. Nostrils ulcerated. Distortion of mouth. Esophageal constriction. Black vomit. Vomiting of mucus, green slime, blood, with great prostration, and great tenderness over the stomach. Burning and cutting pains in stomach. Carcinoma, helps the persistent vomiting. Coffee ground vomiting.

Phytolacca

Cancer of the mammie; Hard, irregular tumor with retracted nipples, sore lame feeling extended to the arm. Pain in the nipple, which was fissured across the crown. The breasts are very sensitive during nursing, with an excessive flow of milk. They have a tendency to suppurate. The pains seem to radiate or extend from the nipples to all over the body, especially down the arm from the axilla.

Calcarea fluor

Calcarea Fluor corresponds to hard indurated swellings in the female breast. It is useful both for fibroadenomas as well as breast cancer.

Pulsatilla

Development of breast tumors after suppression of menses or with scanty and irregular menstruation. Extreme sensitivity to pain in general. Desire for sympathy and weeping while telling her complaints.

Note: Breast cancer is a serious medical condition and may require emergency intervention. If a patient suspects having cancer or lump in breast, they should immediately consult a physician for proper diagnosis and treatment.
