So what led me to pursue homeopathic treatment for a very common cancer that can become very ugly, especially on one's face?
First of all, I do not tolerate medicine very well, so that puts me in the category of "doctor hesitance," since most doctors either like to 1) prescribe drugs to fix a symptom, 2) prescribe drugs to poison the sickness and eliminate it, or 3) they like to cut. This is not to say that I do not like or trust doctors, but having worked with various components of the healthcare field for many years, I understand the industry somewhat.
Secondly, I do not enjoy pain. That does not mean that I am not a tough cookie that has endured much unpleasant pain, but merely that because of reason #1, that I do not like and do not tolerate well, pain killers (prescribed drugs).
Third, after three biopsies, infection in two of the biopsies, several doctor visits, the pain and shock of the four-inch surgical wound from the first removal, allergic reaction to tape to cover wound, pain in movement from wound, continued pain now from merely laying on my side at the wound site, the cost of tape, pads and topical treatment, the cost of the doctor visits and the surgery itself ... it wasn't worth it.
I am in more pain now than I was before I had the removal of some little spot that the doctor said could become worse, Of course, with the procedure he did, he said it could come back. And this time, it was the same size, only on my face. No thank you. Below is a photo of the chest BCC removal wound day two.
I promise to include additional AMMO (that's my initials - Alecia MM Ormsby and also represents ammunition - a fighting chance) for Cancer - to beat it - in future postings.
