My feeling is the real problem in cancer medicine is that Doctors are scared to death of being sued by patients. They need tons of medical malpractice insurance and in order to obtain and keep insurance they must follow the standards of care which are unfortunately set by the legal claims. If they recommend some natural treatment which is not the standard and it fails they will be put out of practice and sued for all they have.  We all know the Standard with regard to Melanoma is IL-2 which has less than a 20% success rate. Looks like now it will be Yervoy which has a moderately better success rate. There are no studies being funded for the natural stuff because nobody can make money seeling you a natural product.  We patients only have resources like this board to discuss what each other is doing and our latest success or failure stories.

Must see?  Hardly., It is an editorial, an opinion of cause, and an opinion of loss and nothing more.

Other than an opinion, and an opinion scaresly supported by fact; this video offers no direct tools that would empower a melanoma patient of today  in either direct thought, scientific analysis, diagnosis nor plan of action nor a medical decision tree .to see a doctor tomorrow. and formulate a treatment plan.

All this "maybe how we got there" is of no value when you are there.

What is a "must see" is an actual sentinel node biopsy surgery,an atual CT, PET, MRI, Ultrasound an actual conversation with the pathologist and surgeon, an actual conversation with an oncoogist following that, and a actual "must see" when the slices of the scan are pulled up and you really see how melanoma is eating away at your body, or the body of one you love.

Ease off a bit with your personal medical opinions.  Some of yours are in Mexico???????????????
