New Prostate Cancer Treatment 100% Effective
posted by Geoff on 20 Apr 2010 at 11:53 pm
If the article is correct, that radio-wave hyperthermia treatment is so efficient, harmless and 100% successful, why isn't it the norm, and why isn't my doctor booking me for the treatment, regardless of the watch & wait situation that I am undergoing?

I am scheduled for prostatectomy pretty soon but would prefer keeping my potency. Where can I get help for this radio-wave hyperthermia treatment?

If this alternative to prostate surgery is not available in your country then the only option is to travel to Germany or another EU country that allows physicians to perform the procedure.
If I was facing prostate surgery I would be arranging such a trip ASAP!

"The ten year disease-free survival rate is 80%. "
That is far from 100%.
Also note that this is a new release from the group doing this treatment, not a scientific report.

Hypothermia
posted by Robert Power on 01 Dec 2010 at 10:35 pm
I travelled to the Fachklinic in Frankfurt in June 2009. My PSA was 58. I had eleven local hypothermia treatments for my prostate cancer and one full hypothermia treatment. Total cost of treatments 4,500 euros. Total cost of three weeks stay 12,000 euros. Immediately after treatment my PSA was 73. It is now 175.1 I have not had any conventional treatment and have survived 9 years since diagnosis. For me, hypothermia was a very expensive waste of time.
difference
posted by errol on 17 Jan 2011 at 11:57 am
Just reading your postings I am confused on how Jeff Abulet reports a completely positive result whilst Robert Power reports a completely negative result for the hypothermia. Any special reason for this difference.
If the treatment is as good as Jeff says how come it is not already the most widely accepted treatment for PC.
Oxygenation.

George writes he is keeping the body saturated with oxygen can someone explain the purpose of that. Is this an alternative cancer treatment? If so where can information on it be obtained.
