"My husband suffers from laryngo-pharyngeal cancer"
My husband is 44 years and he had not suffered from any disease until January, this year, when he underwent a surgery of discal hernia. Then, his neck got swollen but he did not pay too much attention to this until June, when the swollen area became painful. He went to "Sf. Spiridon" Hospital from Iasi, to O.R.L. Clinic and he immediately underwent a surgery. The professor diagnosed him with laryngo-pharyngeal cancer. Then, my husband was transferred to the Oncology section, where he started to undergo the cytostatics treatment, but he was not given too many hopes. If you know any natural treatment, please, help me. I would also like to mention that the tumor has affected the larynx and the esophagus, but it has not affected the lung or other organ. I am desperate. We have a little daughter and I want to bring her up together with my husband. Thank you very much!

"At the age of only three years old, our little daughter suffers from embryonic rabdomiosarcoma"
Only one month and a half ago, our little daughter, who is only 3 years old, underwent a surgery under her right eye and she was diagnosed with tumorous formation in course of specification. After running the anat - pathologic exam, the actual diagnosis is embryonic rabdomiosarcoma. Meanwhile, the tumor extended behind her eye, causing a serious exophthalmia. We would like to mention that her right eye is perfectly healthy. After undergoing the first course of treatment with cytostatics, we could not notice any encouraging alleviation. Please, if you have ever been confronted with this torment and you can send us the address of a doctor, the name of a medicine or of a therapist who could save our little daughter, let us know as soon as possible. We cannot take the risk of waiting too much. Thank you very much!

"My father suffers from broncho-pulmonary neoplasm"
In January 2002, my 64 year old father was diagnosed with broncho-pulmonary neoplasm, right superior lobe, unoperative. As he definitely refuses to undergo a treatment with cytostatics (their terrible effect is well known), we would like to administer him a natural treatment. I would also like to mention that my father has lost a lot of weight. However, the most troublesome are the pains in his back, shoulder, and chest. The oncologist told us that he did not have any metastases and that the pain was caused by the affected ganglions. Could anyone recommend me an effective natural treatment? What medicines could I administer him in order to alleviate his pains? Thank you very much!

</b><b>"I need a natural treatment against left invasive spine cellular epidermoid carcinoma"
You are our last hope to cure my husband of a terrible disease he has been suffering from for almost four months. The entire torment started when he had a molar extracted. The doctor diagnosed him with left invasive spine cellular epidermoid carcinoma. He took 30 sessions of cobalt rays, which were not very effective. One month after having taken these sessions, he feels worse and worse and he has to be given injections with Tramadol. Please, recommend me a doctor who could make my husband regain his peace and smile that he used to have a few months ago. Thank you very much!

<b></b><b>"I underwent a surgery of anal fissure and the wound does not cicatrize"
My suffering began 15 years ago when I was diagnosed with anal fissure and external hemorrhoids. After 3 dilatations that I underwent in surgery clinics, at intervals of 5-6 years, the pains and the bleedings ceased and then recurred during the period of time that followed the mentioned procedures. About 2 months ago, I decided to undergo a surgery at the doctor"s advice. The first surgery fissurectomy - was followed by some terrible pains, which made me turn to another surgeon, who decided that I should undergo a second surgery. I underwent a digital anal dilatation and partial inferior internal sphincterectomy. 5 weeks have passed since the second surgery and the pains are unbearable. They told me that the wound could not cicatrize. If there is any treatment, even if it is natural, please, let me know about it. I need some advice given by a doctor specialized in proctology or by a person who has been confronted with a similar situation. I am allergic to lanoline, vaseline and bee glue. Thank you in advance!

"Could hemophilia be cured?"
An acquaintance of mine, a 30 year old young man, suffers from hemophilia. He has now a lot of large ecchymoses on his body, the size of about 6-8 cm and the joints of his legs are "coked". He can walk only with the help of a walking stick and he has some terrible pains. In time he may not be able to walk at all .

</b><b>"My daughter has a nodule at her breast"
My 19 year old daughter has a nodule at her left breast, which had the size of 13/22 cm two months ago; now its size has almost doubled. She undergoes a treatment with some ointments prescribed by the gynecologist, keeps a diet based on fresh fruit and cereals, takes some products based on Aloe Vera and plants powder; she also applies compresses with Swedish bitter and bee glue cream. The doctors who saw her advised her to undergo a surgery and they assured her that the surgery is an uncomplicated one, without any risk. We would like to avoid the surgery as we know that we do not eliminate the cause if we do this, and the disease may recur. This is why we would like you to advise us what you do in case you have ever been confronted with a similar problem (nodules that grow fast) and whether their evolution was stopped by undergoing a treatment. Thank you very much for the extraordinary magazine you offer us every week! You give us a lot of hope!

</b><b>"How could I get rid of epilepsy?"
I am 23 years old and I am sending this letter to you as you are my last hope to find the cure of a disease I have been suffering from for a long time. When I was 8 months old, I suffered from meningitis. When I was 2 years old, the morphemic attacks occurred for the first time. I used to have them during the night, on my right side. They did not wake me up. I underwent a treatment and I observed some rules: not to stay in the sun, not to practice sport, not to eat or drink products that contain cocoa. I did all these until I was 15 years old. The attacks were not so troublesome anymore and I had got used with the treatment. They did not affect my memory. Then, these morphemic attacks ceased and I began to have panic attacks, to cry without any reason, to stareMy right hand started to get strained and I was not aware of this. The attacks did not last long (at most one minute). I saw another doctor, who diagnosed me with epilepsy. He changed my treatment and he told me that I should not watch Tv or work on the computer for more than 90 minutes a day. However, the attacks do not go away (they occur about 5 times a month). On the other hand, my memory has decreased a lot. I cannot take any medicine to stimulate my memory and I can hardly deal with the exams of the faculty. I would like to undergo a treatment that should cure me of this disease. Thank you very much!

"My daughter suffers from ossified lachrymal ducts"
(Answer for Geta- Piatra-Neamt, F.As nr. 519)
Your chance is that you have searched for an answer at the very right place, namely "Formula As" magazine, this periodical that is so very compassionate due to the help it offers to its regular readers. The allopathic doctor, unless he is specialized in homeopathy, will not manage to solve your daughter"s problem by mechanical movements or by some local interventions. An experienced homeopathic doctor is the only one who can restore the lachrymal ducts functions with the help of a simple and cheap treatment, without any sophisticated instruments. When you start undergoing the homeopathic procedure, you will become aware that it may influence the physic, mental and psychic of any patient and that the most immediate effects can be noticed when the patients are children. I wish you good luck! Contact me, so that I could help you.

</b><b>"I have a weight of 130 kg at only 1, 50 m!"
(Answer for Maria- Bucharest, F.As nr. 521)
This year in January some recommendations regarding curing many diseases - among which the obesity - with the help of juniper (Juniperus communis) were published in F.As nr.497. I would like to recommend you the juniper tincture. You can find juniper grains at "Plafar". You should buy 3-4 bags of it; grind them in the screw nut or in the coffee mill. Put 15 spoonfuls of powder into a screw-cap jar; add a glass of refined alcohol and a glass of water; stir well and put the screw-cap. Let it steep for 10 days, then strain it with the help of lint and keep the tincture in a dark-colored bottle. Take a spoonful of tincture in a glass of water, 3-4 times a day, for three running days. You will immediately eliminate a lot of water through your tissues. This treatment is contraindicated to the ones who suffer from renal or urinary infections. Maybe you will find "F.As" magazine nr. 497, from January 2002. You should read it in order to be better informed. Against your problems with your pituitary gland, you should keep a diet containing as little cooked food as possible. Your food should be based on fresh fruit and vegetables, so that you could eliminate the toxins from your organism. If I were you, I would reduce the treatment with synthetic medicines and I would keep a diet based on raw fruit and vegetables. I wish you to be in good health!

</b><b>"My mother suffers from both legs gonarthrosis"
(Answer for Doina Georgescu- Bucharest, F.As nr. 527)
1. I would like to recommend you a rather old receipt that was published in F.As and that is very effective: introduce thuja fruit (Thuja occidentalis) (ornamental bush that belongs to the conifers family with green and angular fruit, which grows in parks) in a bottle with a large orifice (a milk bottle) until you fill half of it. You should fill the other half of the bottle with large- grained salt. After this, you should pour 500 ml of medicinal alcohol. Let the bottle in a dark and cold place for four weeks; meanwhile, you should stir it every day. Use the resulting liquid to apply cataplasms on your knees, every evening, until you finish the entire quantity of liquid. Take a one week break and then repeat the treatment once more time. I wish you to be in good health!

2. In order for you to alleviate the terrible pains caused by the degenerative arthrosis, I would like to recommend you local applications with an ointment that I personally tried and that has proved its effectiveness in the course of the years. However, it has been forgotten, as people resort to some imported ointments because of indolence or because of some aggressive commercials. The ointment can be prepared by any pharmacy, after the following prescription: phenylbutazone 5 g, methyl salicylic acid 4 g, camphor 4 g, hydrocortisone ampoules Ii (2 ampoules), anesthesin 3g, vaseline 45g, lanoline 15 g. I would also like to recommend you some natural products, made by "Exhelios" company from Timisoara. You can find these products in the pharmacies from Bucharest, as well: Dr. Boici solution for external use [it contains active principles from hellebore (Helleborus purpurescens), juniper (Juniperus communis) and chestnut-tree (Castanea sativa); it contributes to the articular function restoring]. Let me also recommend you Stimuven ointment (it also contains extracts from hellebore, chestnut-tree and others). You should use it for local applications, 2-3 times a day, thus contributing to the alleviation of the pains and of the inflammations of rheumatic nature. Try an alternative or associated use of the two ointments and the above mentioned solution. Your mother"s suffering will be greatly reduced and will eventually come to an end. I wish you to be in good health!

3. There are many natural treatments against this disease; they are very effective in many cases, as it appears from the numerous answers of the readers of "Formula As" magazine and from their advice. I would like to recommend you a treatment that not only alleviates the pains, but also seems to stop the disease if it is undergone for a longer period of time. You should massage the painful area with olive oil (500 ml) every day, for 10 minutes. The olive oil is obtained by cold pressing. You should add to it 30 g of each of the following plants: marjoram (Origanum majorana), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) and all saints" wort (Hypericum perforatum), all these well minced. Keep this mixture in the sun or at a warm place for one month, then strain it with the help of lint and pour it into a bottle that should be kept in a cold place. Until it is ready, you should try some massages with medicinal alcohol (500 ml) in which you should dissolve 1-2 tablets of aspirin (minced). I advise you to be patient and I wish you to be in good health!

"I have been suffering from ocular and genital herpes for one year"
(Answer for Nicoleta Nicolae, F.As nr. 528)
1. Besides the allopathic treatment you referred to, you could try a natural treatment, too, that consists of smearing the affected areas with an ointment that you can prepare by yourself from 10 g bee glue (which you can get from the beekeepers who sell apicultural products in markets), homogenized in 50 g of vaseline. You may also undergo an internal treatment with 3 tablets of Proposept per day (one tablet in the morning, one at noon and one in the evening), which you can buy from the Apicola shops. I hope that you will obtain the expected result by associating these treatments!

2. Dear Nicoleta, I also suffered from herpes with thoracic intercostal localization. I underwent a treatment with Acyclovir (Acycloguanosine) and Diclofenac at the dermatology clinic. The curing occurred after three weeks (the vesicles got dry), but the itching sensations and the local pains continued for an even longer period of time. As I have a neighbor who suffered from herpes localized on the thigh, I advised her to undergo a local, empirical treatment with fresh juice from the thick, juicy leaves of common houseleek (Sempervivum tectorum), two - three times a day. The popular medicine recommends the juice squeezed from this plant, which should be poured into the ear in order to alleviate the pains, but also against various cutaneous diseases (herpes, varicella Zoster, erysipelas), after burns or against hemorrhoids. I was surprised to see that the healing occurred much sooner than expected. May God bless you!

Winnow it every day, for 3-4 days, and then drink the juice and eat the cabbage. Argil - internal use and compresses on the spine. Hay decoction baths. Infusion of equal parts of melilot (Melilotus), marigold (Calendula), common marjoram (Origanum vulgare), all saints" wort (Hypericum perforatum), common motherwort (Leonorus cardiaca) and white box thorn (Lycium Barbarum) fruits. Put a teaspoonful of this mixture for a mug of boiling water and let it brew for 30 seconds. Drink two mugs a day. Peony (Paeonia) and mistletoe (Viscum album) decoction, cold steeped for 24 hours.

My friend suffered from the same disorder, too, and she got cured after having undergone a treatment with mineral waters at Olanesti, Valcea County. Besides the treatment with mineral waters, you may also be given injections with this kind of waters. Moreover, you should give up both drinking coffee, alcohol, fizzy drinks and eating meat, spices, sausages and salami. You may eat meat very seldom and when you do, it should be only beef.

Dear Mirela, let me recommend your mother the Epilobium (Epilobium) tea. An acquaintance of mine, who had already undergone three surgeries of bladder cancer, got cured in a miraculous way after having undergone the treatment with this tea. Tea preparation: you should soak one teaspoonful of the above mentioned plant in ¼ l of boiling water and let it brew for a short time. You should drink only two cups of tea per day: the first cup in the morning, before eating, and the second one in the evening, 30 minutes before dinner. This treatment should be undergone until you notice the first positive results. I wish your mother to be in good health!

</b><b>"At the age of only 27 years old, I think that I suffer from cancer"
(Answer for Mihaela M. - Craiova, F.As nr. 530)
Dear Mihaela, the fact that you have an ovarian cyst does not indicate that you suffer from cancer. It may be a functional cyst, with a hormonal cause, as many women have. However, you should not disregard this problem of yours. You need to know what disease you suffer from, so that you could undergo a treatment. For the time being, you do not have a precise diagnosis. I suggest that you should take heart and be courageous enough to see the gynecologist at once and to be properly diagnosed. The medical investigations are not painful and they do not require a long time (blood test, sexual hormones dosing, Babes-Papanicolau smear, and mammography for both breasts). This is when you will be able to know what treatment you should undergo: natural, homeopathic, medical, or surgical, but the decision is all yours. Do not lose heart! You are not alone; you have your parents with you, and also your husband and all the friends of "Formula As". You should think positively, you are young and you have the entire life ahead of you. I wish you to have a lot of courage and also a speedy recovery!
