1 intro of me and Dendritic Cell Immunology therapy


Ok, so the purpose of this blog is to instil positive energy to those who may walk this radical new path that I have taken.
I shall start writing for those who need this information, in the hope it will give some guidance along the way.
Please note, if I offend or you feel I have given the wrong information please do not hesitate to email me directly nick1000@hotmail.com you’re also welcome to leave any comments.
This is all in my own words, I am NOT a Doctor so please don’t expect me to talk in technical terms. This is all through my own experience. There maybe times you’ll squirm but I am trying to explain and shown it all as it is. I’m known for my frankness, so why change habit of a life time ;-)
I will keep my personal info very short & brief but pls feel free to email me if you want/need more info.
I have been battling Cervical Cancer for many years being told I couldn’t even have children, then being blessed by my daughter in Jan 2003. Unfortunately, the Cancer came back and I had a ‘radical hysterectomy’ in 2005 (everything taken out of the ‘girly area’ including ovaries) In 2008 I was told it had come back sending me spiralling into confusion. I have now embarked upon this journey, hoping this ‘vaccine’ will once and for all cure me of any Cancer cells and help me lead a healthy +fulfilling life. It will possibly be a four-six month path (all dependant on how things go) and one I promise to document for your benefit. Every step of the way.
Well, Dendritic Cell Immunology therapy sure is a mouth full and even now, in 2009, is still regarded as an experimental procedure and something I am finding little written about (lots from Doctors and scientists but very few from patients experiences)
As far as I am aware, there are few places in the world licensed to do this treatment. It is still in an ‘experimental phase’ in places but I did not want the option of a ‘test case’ not knowing if I were given the placebo or real vaccine. I wanted confirmed treatments. I knew this is what I had to do.
After great length of discussions, in face, by emails, sms, phone etc I was then recommended by my Dr to go to where they believe to be the best place for me to precede with this.
fyi, from what I can gather, should you wish to do this treatment, you will need TWO different credited Dr’s to review your case history, scans etc before you are then recommended. I went through Dr Raymond Chang of the Meridian Medical Group in New York (consult.chang@meridianmedical.org ) and Dr David Chan in Hong Kong. Both world acclaimed front runners of advanced medical practices.


For approx six weeks prior to arriving in Germany I have been put on a course of Thymosin. This is to boost my immune system and make my body strong and ready for the vaccine. Thymosin is to be injected into the blood stream twice a week, either in your leg, arm or stomach. It’s amazing what you can do if you have to! BTW, I am VERY squeamish of needles! In fact, I’d actually say, I am petrified of needles! Personally, I believe this fear is now from many years of nurses trying to find a vein unsuccessfully in my arms (I’ve bad veins), in fact one nurse took six tries before she gave up and got a Dr to then try, at which point I passed out. So, you can imagine my joy at being told I had to insert a needle into my own skin TWICE weekly (I count my blessings it’s not daily ha ha and not intravenously!) Originally, I asked a friend to do it for me but soon realised if I were to continue taking Thymosin I was to quickly learn to inject myself. *even I still squirm and have sweaty palms just talking about it!* the trick I learnt to make this easier for me to do is -
‘Emla’ is my new best friend ;-) it’s a numbing cream that ‘freezes’ the top layer of skin so as not to feel the initial pierce of the needle. Unfortunately it is only best used when a vein is NOT required as it can make the vein contract making it more difficult to make a clean insertion for drip etc. But is perfect for this situation where I just need to insert direct to blood stream. I place the emla on an hour before I insert the needle. I wake, shower, put the cream on, with plaster on top so as not to rub the cream off, then I have breakfast, watch TV etc while the area numbs then just before dressing I wipe the area clean with an alcohol swab and then inject the needle – easy ;-) btw when I say ‘numb’ it is e same as if you ‘froze’ the one specific area, as far as I am aware there are no adverse effects.
Practise, practise, practise. After showing me how to measure the formula etc Dr Chan gave me some spare syringes so as I could practise inserting the needle. I practised on an orange at first! It got easier the more I tried. Ok, so it really is still difficult for me, and I still use the numbing cream every time but I no longer have to practise on the orange, I just pinch my thigh, say to myself ‘it’s just an orange’ and plunge the needle in.
I am advised to continue using Thymosin during the whole time I am doing the Dendritic Cell Immunology therapy. I would advise you have a few copies of a letter from your Doctor for travelling as some countries are difficult with people carrying medication and syringes and keep the letter for their reference - so far I’ve been ok, though I have been asked to take out and show the letter while travelling through Singapore, Hong Kong, Rome (in transit) Venice, Frankfurt.
And so I embark on my next step of this journey!
