I Beat Cancer with Vitamin B17

Genesis 1:29
Then God said,
​"I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth
and every tree that has fruit with seed in it.
They will be yours for food."

It’s Been a Yearlong FIGHT

I can't believe an entire year has gone by!

​Last year around this same time, I discovered my thyroid quit working like it should. I wanted to find out “why” it quit, so I did a ton of research and discovered all my blood work was normal in regards to my thyroid except for my ferritin levels. I’d never heard of “ferritin,” so I looked up what it was. After a long misunderstanding (believing it was “iron”) I finally learned that it’s the protein in the body that actually carries the iron. Well, my iron levels were normal, but my ferritin was high. This could mean I either had Lymphoma (which is the cancer the B17 cured me from) or Chronic Kidney Disease (of which I was diagnosed shortly after my ferritin discovery). Anyway, the likelihood that it was Lymphoma was predominately on my doctor’s mind and she strongly urged me to get a scan, of which I refused because I didn’t want further damage done to my kidneys. 
 
Around September of last year, I learned of Essiac Tea from a dear friend battling her own cancer. I’d also read that it helped a woman cure her hypothyroidism (which is what I had). So, I started taking the tea for my thyroid. I also got on a pill (IP6), in order to lower my ferritin because I’d read that it would lower the ferritin levels. After being on the tea for about a month or two and not noticing any changes in my thyroid, I quit drinking it but kept taking the IP6 believing it would lower my ferritin. In November of this time, I also asked to have my ferritin tested again. After all, it’d been nearly five months since the last blood test, so why not find out where I was at? Last summer, my ferritin levels had last been tested at 971. In November they had dropped to 789! I was shocked and thought for sure it was the IP6 that did it. So, I stayed strong on the IP6.
 
After being on IP6 for four more months, I discovered that it DID NOT WORK and my ferritin levels had skyrocketed! Normal levels should range from 50-150. Mine were at 1065 at this point. Of course, my doctor is freaking out and trying to get me to go back to see the hematologist/oncologist. I refused. God is my doctor, and I realize He uses doctors, but this hematologist woman was awful! You can read about that experience in posts below.
 
All I knew was I’d done SOMETHING to lower my ferritin back in September, but I couldn’t for the life of me remember what it was. After days of battling, racking my brain, trying to remember, I finally just broke down before my Father in heaven. “God, my brain just doesn’t work like it used to, and I know there was something I did back then to lower my ferritin. Will You please remind me what it was?” I had a busy day that day, and it wasn’t until I sat down and was still for a few moments that the words suddenly came to me out of the blue, “Essiac Tea.” 
 
HA! That was it! I’d taken the tea, not imagining it would lower my ferritin, but that’s what did it! So, I got right back on the tea, thanking God in the process and praying to Him that I was on the right track. FOUR WEEKS LATER, my ferritin DROPPED from 1065 all the way down to 873!!! The way I figure it, as long as I’m consistent with the tea, my ferritin should be in normal range by August of 2018, this year! I’m praying that when they normalize, so will my thyroid, and hopefully, so will my kidneys, and another bonus …. I’ll get my hair back. 
 
From the beginning after all the doctors have failed me, I’ve asked God to be my Physician. He is The Great Physician after all. Better than any human out there … no comparison, really. I trust in Him and am leaning on Him. He has my days numbered. Not any human being, not me, and not any doctor. GOD is in charge of my life and my body, and He has led me to the remedies He knew I needed around every corner of this journey. 
 
Thank You, my God. Thank You, my heavenly Father. Thank You, my Abba! Thank You for allowing me to live a little while longer so I can raise my children and possibly even enjoy my grandkids sometime in the future. I will do my best to tell them ALL about You and how wonderful, magnificent and LOVING You are, how You gave Your one and only Son to die for all people, great and small.
Romans 14:11 “…every knee shall bow…”
HE is MY GOD!

    On November 1, 2010, I was diagnosed with Stage Four Non-Hodgkins T-cell Lymphoma when my oncologist found a tumor in my head. He gave me radiation for this tumor, which continued to light up on all the PET scans for the rest of my treatments, but the growth had stopped. Within a year-and-a-half I was given eight rounds of chemo (including 22-hour bags and other numerous amounts of smaller injections of chemo that are innumerable—nearly bleeding to death twice), 35 treatments of radiation, a stem-cell transplant (which included "enough chemo to kill a healthy person"—my oncologist liked to say—along with full-body radiation), and numerous amounts of drugs and one magnesium vitamin. 
    Despite this aggressive protocol, all these traditional cancer treatments failed. After this, I was left with three tumors: one in my ribcage and two in my spine. By October 2011 they did radiation on these tumors in order to stop the growth. 

    In the beginning of November of 2011 I saw a naturopathic doctor who gave me high doses of Vitamin C (via an IV), a slew of vitamins, and I got on Vitamin B17. During this time I was on an immune suppressant drug prescribed by my oncologist called Tacrolimus (a.k.a. Tac) because of the stem-cell transplant (they didn’t want my new immune system to attack me), along with a slew of other drugs. I’d gotten the transplant so that I could receive a new immune system that would kill off the cancer because it’s our immune systems that kill cancer. But they overdosed me on the Tac, which is likely why the cancer returned. Still, while on the Tac, the B17 worked, and by the end of December of 2011, I was declared in remission. 

    At this time I was taking 70 pills a day, which included drugs from the oncologist and supplements from the naturopathic doctor, including the B17. It was too much for me, so I got off all the supplements (including the B17), but continued taking what my oncologist prescribed. Then in February of 2012, the cancer came back, revealing a tumor in my pelvic bone. Again, I got radiation, but I still didn’t take any more of the supplements, including the B17.

    Then in June I got another PET scan which revealed more tumors. The tumor in my pelvic bone still lit up (just like the one in my head did until the end of December 2011), I had another tumor in my rib cage, and three in my lymph nodes. By this time we were defeated. I was going to die. My oncologist, Dr. Myint from Colorado University Hospital, said all he could offer was more chemo, and sent me home to think about it. By this time, I had nothing to lose. I decided to slowly wean myself off the immune suppressant drugs (namely the Tac), along with all the other drugs the oncologist had me on, and I read up on Vitamin B17. At my next appointment with my oncologist, I refused the chemo (if I was going to die, I’d rather die strong than with my head in a toilet) and told the nurse practitioner that I was going to take Vitamin B17. Dr. Mijnt came in later, and when I asked him if he’d heard of B17, he puffed up his chest, and said, “Yes, of course.” But that’s all he said, and normally, he’d go on and on about the quackery of other alternative treatments we (my husband and I) had mentioned in the past, but this time he said nothing. They were willing to monitor me on this, and I was to return in eight weeks for another PET scan.

    In August of 2012, I got on Vitamin B17, 500mg twice a day. Eight weeks later, these were the results of the PET scan: the tumor in my pelvic bone was gone; the one in my ribcage was gone; and the three in my lymph nodes, one was gone, the other was almost completely gone, and the other had shrunk so much my oncologist wasn't worried about it (by this time I had a new oncologist who was unaware that I was taking B17). After doing the math, I figured by ten weeks, all the cancer was gone.
     
    Vitamin B17 wiped out my cancer on two separate occasions: December of 2011 while taking the immune suppressant drug (Tac) and in October of 2012 when I was off the Tac. This means the Tac had no affect on the cancer, and I could not have experienced a “spontaneous remission” as doubters believe. I've been free of cancer now for SEVEN years since October 2012, all because of God's stuff, His vitamin B17, a concentrated form of bitter apricot kernels. All the glory belongs to my Father who is in Heaven. Praise His Name!
