Leukemia

Leukemia is Blood Cancer. It can kill you, just like any other cancer, but once you get it, it is very hard to treat.

Prednisolone is a corticosteroid drug with predominant glucocorticoid and low mineralocorticoid activity, making it useful for the treatment of a wide range of inflammatory and auto-immune conditions such as asthma,uveitis, pyoderma gangrenosum, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, temporal arteritis and Crohn's disease, Bell's palsy, multiple sclerosis,[4]cluster headaches, vasculitis, acute lymphoblastic leukemia and autoimmune hepatitis,[5]systemic lupus erythematosus, and dermatomyositis

Leukemia may cause black or blueish patches of skin to appear. This is shown in the film Under The Hawthorn Tree.

Leukemia is a very serious condition. It is a cancer of the blood cells. Treatment includes watchful waiting, chemotherapy, stem cell transplant, and radiation therapy.

Acute myelogenous leukemia is a type of cancer that is destructive to the white blood cells. It's acute, so it is therefore fast acting. Acute mylelogenous leukemia can quickly become terminal if it is not treated promptly and cared for.

Nader is basically getting to the lowest level of cells in the bone marrow. If cancer is suspected, you irradiate and give chemo to kill off all cells in the bone marrow, because you suspect they are diseased. Once you do this, you have wiped everything out and reached nader. At this point, you are extremely high risk for infections due to the lack of almost all protective cells. You may then give donated bone marrow or stem cells in the hopes that these new cells will proliferate and grow healthily within your body. After 5 years of no cancer cell growth, you enter remission.

she was diagnosed at age 11 but the bomb was dropped on Hiroshima when she was 2.

This is a difficult question to answer. Any type of infection can caue the above symptoms. Anything from mononucleosis, malaria, lymphoma, strep, etc. the list is virtually endless. A GOOD history and physical exam by an experienced doctor will help him start to figure out which tests to order. It can be a lenghty process, since it is a process of elimination.

Leukemia is a form of cancer, and thusly the kind of doctor who specializes in it is called an "Oncologist".

However, this specific disease may have some cross talk with another specialty called hematology - the specialty concerning blood and diseases in blood. A person within this kind of specialty is called a "hematologist".

Yes. It is a physiological disease because it affects the physical being of the patient.

It is possible that leukemia may be misdiagnosed as lupus, however lupus can cause bone marrow changes that may mimic some of the symptoms and signs of leukemia. For appropriate diagnosis of lupus, see a rheumatologist. For appropriate diagnosis of blood disease, see a hematologist.

Leukemia is a form of cancer that affects the blood. If the blood is not normal it cannot carry everything it needs to support the muscles and bones therefore leading to deterioration.

There is no medical cure as such; however, you could try the following:

I have found that eliminating processed sugars is a most effective strategy, together with a raw-food diet ( lots of fruit & Veg. ).

Also, a high oxygen intake (lots of deep breathing), was beneficial as well.

Sourcable from either country-air, oxygen-rich herbs or specialist oxygen clinics.

This worked for me in treating skin cancer. Helped me avoid surgery!

I've been informed that all cancer cells have the same basic chemistry, so if it works for one type it should work for all.

blood problems and impaired bodily function

It is but I am 62 years young and mine has been anywhere from 41000 to 57000 for 4 year now and I am on a watch and see which means check every 3 months. My doctor told me if it goes to 80000 then you may need chemo. On the other hand he said I might die of old age with it because it has'nt doubled in 1 year. Always be cautious of doctors. When I was diagnosed 3 years ago that doctor wanted me to start chemo. Now remember there is big money in it for doctors to start treating with chemo.sugession seek another opinion because I am glad I did not start chemo 3 years ago. I feel fine with no negative physical ailments and work weights and walk a lt without being tired and my 33 year old wife says I am fine in the sex dept. also.
