It’s been a while since my last update, but I have some news to share. Tomorrow finally marks the beginning of protocol 4, and I’m hopeful that this will be the final one! For those who may have forgotten or are new to my journey, here’s a summary: On January 13th, 2023 I was told that I had stage 4 …

It’s been a while since my last post, as I’ve been feeling quite drained of energy and ideas. However, I’m pleased to report that my health remains in excellent shape, and that’s a silver lining. Initially, I had planned to maintain the momentum of my success (breast tumour gone, remission in bones, and fabulous bloodwork) and commence another protocol on …

I thought I would finally explain in detail why I do HBOT. Also, I have some more good news. My white blood cells are up! Yay.  So, I’ve been taking a cancer med called Ribociclib since my diagnosis. I take it for 21 days straight, followed by seven days off. During that break, my body gets a chance to recoup, …

I’m going to ask for a PET scan requisition again. So skip this post if you don’t have time to delve into the details. It appears that both scans come with their own set of advantages and disadvantages, and the choice often hinges on factors like the type and stage of cancer.

Just before Christmas, I got some incredible news – my breast tumour had vanished! Yes, you read that right; it’s completely gone! I got the news verbally because they always hold back the imaging reports for about two weeks. This rule might seem silly, but it’s there mainly to stop patients from jumping the gun and calling their doctors in …

My last post was the best yet and what are the odds that is when the email notifications stop working. So if you get this check yesterday’s post. 🙂 You won’t regret it! Love, Allison

Exciting news! Got my results and I am happy with them. Had a verbal rundown on Monday, but you know how doctors explain things – not always in a way that suits me. I prefer straightforwardness over sugar-coating or unnecessary drama. Emotions? I’ve got them under control. Sure, I get sad about the situation, but I don’t want my results …

A friend recently asked me how things were going and what I was doing. She said she got slightly behind on my blog posts, and now she can’t catch up because I ramble, and they are too long. This comment exemplifies how I like my people – honest! Summary and a couple of key terms: I wholeheartedly endorse the Mitochondrial …

Alright, let’s clarify things a bit. Success and failure aren’t judged by the bone scan; it’s the CT scan that takes the spotlight. The PET scan? Well, some oncologists are into it, others not so much. I’ve been through every scan imaginable, just not the PET. But it’s the CT that’s the benchmark here. That doesn’t mean the Bone Scan …

This was going to be a First Day of Protocol 2 post but then I went on a rant. And now it’s 13:15 and I am on the couch still in my house coast and have been typing for 3 hours. So I will do another post on Protocol 2. First off I wish to express my profound gratitude to …
