Chemotherapy could allow cancer to spread, and trigger more aggressive tumours, a new study suggests.
Researchers in the US studied the impact of drugs on patients with breast cancer and found medication increases the chance of cancer cells migrating to other parts of the body, where they are almost always lethal.
Around 55,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in Britain every year and 11,000 will die from their illness.
Many are given chemotherapy before surgery, but the new research suggests that, although it shrinks tumours in the short term, it could trigger the spread of cancer cells around the body.
It is thought the toxic medication switches on a repair mechanism in the body which ultimately allows tumours to grow back stronger. It also increases the number of ‘doorways’ on blood vessels which allow cancer to spread throughout the body.

Ut oh, a huge money maker (in the US) could be causing cancer to spread into a more aggressive tumors?

Chemo before surgery to shrink tumors, then surgery. The study indicates that chemo may change the patients body and increase "doorways" and allow the cancer to spread.

The medical establishment make a HUGE amount of $$$$ from cancer (in the US). It would be a bloody bloody battle.
Imagine the lengths that the medical establishment would go to keep this under wraps....Imagine.....

Well, then let's look at it this way: I wouldn't be troubling folks on ATS today if I didn't consent to chemo about 12 years. Without chem, I wouldn't have lasted but a couple of months. So that perspective is the alternative to this thread.
Oh, by the way, my wife had breast cancer, surgery and radiation after. No chemo. She still died. The simple fact is that breast cancer is a killer. Surgery literally cuts some of that bad stuff loose to move to other parts of the body. Her's went to her liver.

Is it the chemicals we are putting into healthy people (food-health and beauty supplies-medications) that may be the problem?

Oh, I completely agree with you there. I think cancer could probably be greatly reduced or eliminated through healthy eating (getting rid of processed foods/franken foods).
I just can't comprehend that we don't understand why cancer develops or that people do know but aren't being honest because they won't make money that way and yet we try and sell these 'cures'.
