The breast wasn’t even fibrous anymore. It was soft and normal. Her
new blood test continued to be satisfactory, although the serum iron was still
too high. All her supplements were reduced or stopped. She could go home.
We wanted her to send a picture of her two girls. And of course, follow up
with blood tests and ultrasounds, and a bone scan in six months. But, most of
all, change her water pipes and stick to a smoke-free life.
Summary: A follow up done a few months later found her well, no evi-
dence of any cancer. She had no pains. There was no DNA found “Positive”
in any tissues. And her blood test (not shown) showed improvement.
