About Thyroid Cancer

About 54,000 new cases of thyroid cancer are diagnosed in the United States every year. About 75 % of the patients are women. The death rate for thyroid cancer is very low compared to other cancer types. Thanks to the thyroid ultrasound, more and more cases of this type of cancer are discovered early enough to proceed with the successful treatment.

Conventional thyroid cancer treatments may include surgery, radioactive iodine therapy, thyroid hormone therapy, external beam radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and more.

Four Types Of Thyroid Cancer

There are four types of thyroid cancer known today:

  • Papillary thyroid cancer – accounts for 80 % of thyroid cancer cases. It grows slowly and spreads to the neck lymph nodes.
  • Follicular thyroid cancer – accounts for about 10% – 15% of thyroid cancer cases. It often spreads to the lymph nodes and blood vessels.
  • Medullary thyroid cancer – accounts for about 10% of thyroid cancer cases. It’s usually inherited and linked to other glandular problems. Medullary cancer is easier to identify at its early stages.
  • Anaplastic thyroid cancer – accounts for under 1% of thyroid cancer cases. It’s the most aggressive type.

The symptoms of thyroid cancer can include:

  • Neck and throat pain
  • Swollen lymph nodes
  • Enlarged thyroid gland
  • Lump on the neck of different sizes
  • Hoarse voice
  • Cough of an unknown source

Holistic Approach To Thyroid Cancer

The main goal of natural thyroid treatment is to improve the immune system function. Once the system begins functioning properly, the healthy cells start fighting cancerous cells. When used together with Insulin Potentiated Therapy, it often results in an effective and balanced treatment approach.

Properly chosen herbal supplements can also play an important role in the alternative treatment for thyroid cancer.

Each patient requires an individual approach. An expert in holistic thyroid cancer treatment can combine many different methods to implement an effective therapy. Using alternative cancer treatments without proper guidance may be useless or harmful.

FAQ

Common Questions

What is alternative or integrative cancer treatment?

At EuroMed Foundation, alternative or integrative cancer treatment is an overarching term we use to describe the many complementary therapies we employ to kill cancer cells and support your body’s ability to heal itself. Licensed integrative cancer medicine specialists oversee all of our treatments, which have been shown to benefit overall health and well-being while treating the malignancy.

What are my treatment options?

Our treatments target cancer cells with low-dose chemotherapy while strengthening your health and immune system. We offer the George Protocol, which involves a homeopathic immune modulator, and numerous other complementary therapies as part of a customized treatment plan that targets your precise condition. We believe combining many positive treatments creates the best results.

Is alternative or integrative cancer treatment safe?

Our alternative or integrative cancer therapies are much safer than traditional treatments such as full-dose chemotherapy and radiation because the body is exposed to much less toxicity. Licensed physicians who hold themselves to the highest medical and ethical standards perform all treatments. They are committed to improving the well-being and the life of every patient who visits EuroMed Foundation.

Is alternative or integrative treatment as effective as traditional treatment?

Many of our patients turn to us after months or years of unsuccessfully fighting cancer using traditional treatments. For many patients, alternative or integrative therapies provide effective treatments to fight off their disease.

Is alternative cancer treatment covered by insurance?

Whether your treatment is covered by your insurance provider depends on your selected therapy and your coverage plan. Our staff can help you navigate the sometimes complicated intricacies of your plan to determine whether you might qualify for coverage.

Are there alternative therapies I can follow at home?

Yes. We help patients make lifestyle changes, including nutrition and exercise, that boost the immune system. We also introduce ways to help patients relieve their minds. Many side effects of cancer – such as fatigue, nausea, sleep problems, stress, and pain – can be alleviated through changes in diet, nutritional supplements, basic relaxation techniques, or a combination of these. The EuroMed Foundation team considers our patients as family and we give them specific strategies to improve their health and overcome cancer.

Am I a Good Candidate for Alternative Cancer Treatment?

Most patients who contact us will respond well to our therapies. That includes many who have already undergone conventional chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or surgery. Those treatments typically suppress the function of your immune system, which needs to be strengthened and retrained for effective long-term success of alternative treatments.

In certain cases a patient’s cancer is too advanced or doesn’t respond to our therapy. In those situations we usually refer that patient to another cancer center for treatment that is better suited to them. Our doctors will evaluate your condition and find a treatment path that is customized for you.
