Cancer through beauty - implants

[Guest guest]

We are immersed in chemical sea. To become healthy, we should become

ape man, since synthetic clothes also can cause skin diseases and

cotton clothes are going beyond reach of a common man. Everything is

appearing to end at Cancer. Recently link between Ritalin, a drug

used widely for ADHD children and CVD for children is researched.

 

What is surprising is that a disease may take a long time to appear.

Implants are being used for beauty as well as necessity. a case of

large B-cell lymphoma occurring in a 78-year-old man who had a knee

prosthesis implant for more than 30 years is reported in:

 

American Journal of Surgical Pathology. 29(6):832-836, June 2005.

 

Metallic Implant-Associated Lymphoma: A Distinct Subgroup of Large B-

Cell Lymphoma Related to Pyothorax-Associated Lymphoma?

 

Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma arising at the site of metallic implant

is very rare, and the possible carcinogenic effects of the metallic

components and wear particles of the implant have not been answered

despite many years of investigation. authors report a case of large B-

cell lymphoma occurring in a 78-year-old man who had a knee

prosthesis implant for more than 30 years. The lymphoma was of

microscopic size and found incidentally in the wear debris removed at

surgical revision of the loosened prosthesis.

---------This information is quite important.

a) This patient must have had a degenerative arthritis at age 48

( if he has had an implant for 30 odd years)

b) which implies he was not a normal healthy person to begin with.

c) Look at the alternative choice----if you have a disability with pain,

that is not relieved by other methods of analgesia. One is left with no choice,

and

unless we come up with Ayurvedic / Homeopathic alternative for relief of either

the disability or the pain, or both, we are left with no options.

d) There is an entity called as Osteo-integration, where the body tries to

invade the new implant and surround it , and fix it, and make it a part of

itself, ( otherwise it will become loose). That process, has resulted in

Lymphoma after 30 years ( or during these 30 years)

e) The other way to look at this problem is to come up with Ayurvedic

medications that will prevent such lymphoma from occurring or to treat it. Now,

that is a challenge, and that will be a true Integrated Medicine.

 

we should have more such discussions in future, instead of just throwing stones

at modern medicine.
