16. "RE: Help needed in Australia"
In response to message #11

If I understand right, DHEA and DHEAs are risk factors for BC, but no markers. Also, Ca125 does not seem to be a marker for your case. Unless it was elevated at some time, and there was a significant drop after following certain therapy. Anyway, a lot of tumors have no markers at all. But even if there are markers, we can use them just to get a hint and nothing more. Regarding LDH, the best explanation has to do with tumor cell distruction. If this is correct, I would expect to see LDH droping after some time. Another strange thing in my sister's case is that she has very high total cholesterol (279) and LDL (170). She checked those for first time, and it was really a big surprise, since my sister eats no animal fat and exercises regularly. Her HDL was really good (79) and this reduces possible risk. But anyway, this 279 is too much. I google around and found a relation of low LDL and cancer risk. High LDL is bad for heart, but it might protect cells against cancer. In other words, the opposite would be expected. So, I did this wild guess: could it be a physical reaction of her body in order to protect healthy cells against cancer? Has anyone experienced anything similar? |
