I am recovering from aggressive chemo, radiation, and immunotherapy treatments for an aggressive triple-negative breast tumor. The treatment caused Diabetes 3, and I continue to have mucus coming from my respiratory system. I was recently in a 6-day coma and am under no illusion that the original tumor cells are lurking microscopically, waiting to ambush my body at the first chance. My diet has improved but still needs considerable work. I now eat three meals a day on most days and have started including fermented foods, about three days a week. I eat only butter, olive oil, and cook with avocado oil. I have steak, bacon, and free-range mince. I eat chicken occasionally, maybe once a week, and eat sourdough toast but have introduced other hard breads as well. I have difficulty controlling my desire for simple carbohydrates, chocolates, and biscuits, which disrupt my health diet. I mainly eat organic food, mostly organic coleslaw, lightly cooked and mixed with onions, garlic, tomatoes, or whatever I have in the fridge. I am trying hard to change to a healthier lifestyle and diet, but it is proving a challenge. I am 58 years old and know I have high triglycerides, first detected back in my teens. I also have the BRCA gene but can't remember if it is 1 or 2. I am not very active but will try to go for occasional walks. I have never had an overweight problem but suffered significant weight and muscle loss during treatments. I am convinced I suffer from the dreaded skinny fat problem. I have since gained some of my weight back, but muscle loss is still evident. I used to be very fit but find it hard to jump back into it again. I have developed hypothyroid issues and now take one 50 mcg Levoxine tablet in the morning, along with 2 B complex, Vit D with K, and have recently been put on one 100 mg aspirin tablet a day, which is fine because I have always responded well to aspirin. I also take one 20 mg tablet of Frusemide and one 20 mg of Atorvastatin, which bothers me because of the concerns around statins. I was diagnosed in December 2023, and treatments started in January 2024. The treatments finished in October 2024, but they have caused these chronic health problems I currently battle. I continue to research and follow Robert F. Kennedy, Mark Hyman, and Robert Lustig, to name a few. Any advice you could offer would be most appreciated.
I am trying to cure my 47-year-old wife of lifelong neurological and autoimmune diseases. She is now bedfast 24/7, and the least concerning issue is her hormone-positive breast cancer. She could not tolerate common treatments, as her body would shut down, and she has followed the Dr. Makis protocol. I am asking if you or someone you know could help improve her quality of life. We know she will never be 100%, but if I could help her live and not just exist, it would mean the world to us both.
I have neuroendocrine gastricarcinide cancer of the stomach, fatty liver syndrome, psoriatric arthritis, and Hashimoto's syndrome. I am currently experiencing a flare-up of psoriasis, with severe stiffness in my neck, hands, and swollen ankles. I have been on 11 biologics, and they have all failed. I am the person with 1%. If there's going to be a problem, it's going to be me. I don't know if you can offer any advice, but I've watched many of your videos. I was a medical professional for 40 years, and I just can't believe that my body is failing at 64. Every physician I've gone to seems to lack understanding. I go between Boston and the Mayo Clinic now. Can you offer any advice?
