I have never viewed the forum that way by searching for new posts. Was not even aware that was an option. Like I said I just found this site. I have a dial up connection & have no trouble navigating the pages.
It just drives me crazy that the RFA is kept such a secret. I had it in the Philadelphia Inquirer in 2001 & the story was picked up by the Associated Press. It generated 100's of phone calls to me then & I am only trying to let people know it is available & may be a viable option.
Besides we have cancer & we should be sleeping we are allowed to be bitchy!

Sorry to offend you I have no clue who Katie is. I have recd. nothing from her & when I view forums I usually only look at specific catagories.
By posting in multiple catagories I hope to reach out to more people who like me do not read all of them. I'm hoping that more people find out about the RFA. I personally have gained a lot from the Moss reports concerning many of the quack cures that I see all over the internet, it has saved me a fortune in not buying products that made false claims.
I have recd. numerous e-mails from the different posts & different forums just in the last few days, yours is the only complaint the rest were asking for additional info.
I just found this site a few days ago & was unaware there was a limit on postings.
Thanks
Terri

Moss Report
in SCLC GROUP
Posted
I was stage 4 when diagnosed. My tumor had also attached to chest wall & fractured two ribs. When the ribs fractured & caused the pain in my arm pit was when I found the cancer. If I was a candidate after two surgeons telling me I was non operable, don't underestimate it.
It depends solely on the size & location of the tumor. I did get a lung collapse with the first RFA, but it was no big deal they blew it right back up. Still came home 2 days later with a band-aid.
Considering my diagnosis of 6 to 9 mos. to live 4 yrs. ago a lung collapse was a piece of cake.
My most recent RFA of the other lung was again deemed non operable by a very good surgeon. Yet the RFA worked & now shows dead on my follow-up scan. No lung collapse & out at 8 AM next morning, again with a band-aid.
It really depends upon the skill of the Dr. using the probe & lungs are not as easy as other body parts. Sort of like poking a needle into a baloon. But as long as they are far enough from the main vessels that cause heat sink it can work very well.
There is no better tumor than a dead one.
