I just wanted to jump in and say, I did do all treatment recommended in 2011 at first diagnosis and I STILL had a recurrence, why?? they don't know. 2nd diagnosis 2015 I STILL chose more aggressive treatment, even 2yrs on Im just recovering from a revision surgery that ended up bigger than anticipated OUCH! I ALSO AM a Reiki Master of 17yrs, I love alternative therapies but AT NO POINT have I or would I say there are alternative things to do. People really don't understand alot about it, alternative therapies are USED in conjunction with medicine, what they do is help the symptoms or side effects and especially in the recovery mode and moving on.
