Small cell lung cancer

I've been diagnosed with metastasized small cell lung cancer. Given 3 to 6 months to live. At this point I am not feeling any of the effects of the cancer.

I guess I could just lay down and die but 2 years ago I was diagnosed with lung cancer and started using B17 daily. Then a biopsy was done and the tumor had shrunk and was not malignant.

There really is not a good treatment for the type of cancer I have so I am back on B17.

I wondered if anyone in the community has had any experience with B17?

  1. Sorry to hear of your prognosis, but nice to hear you're not feeling the effects, so that says a lot, or to me that is. Have you considered getting another set of eyes on your condition to advise you further in treatment? I hope the tumor shrinks yet again with this B17, stay vigilant and ask your doctor about any lingering questions you may have that affect your care. Wishing you the very best!

    1. I am very interested in integrative therapies but to be honest, B17 is more alternative, makes me nervous, but it seems to be doing well for you. Hopefully yo are being guided by a medical professional as B17 can be tricky. It was actually banned by the FDA and cannot be bought legally in the United States.

      1. Where can I get b17 I'm in the USA and it's ban here any ideas at this point I try anythang

        1. I'd be very cautious of B17 treatments, I suggest finding an integrative oncologist and have a discussion about the treatment and where you can receive it. Wishing you the best, Alisa, Lung Cancer Team Patient Leader
