Bone Cancer Symptoms covers the causes, signs, symptoms and treatment, along with what you can do to fight this cancer.

Bone Cancer Symptoms

Causes of Bone Cancer:

While there are no direct causes linked to bone cancer, factors that increase the risk include aged from child to young adult, having received radiation or chemotherapy, family history and a few rare diseases.  A factor that increases the risk of cancer generally is weakened immune system due to illness, surgery, medications or poor nutrition.  For more information, consider these recent books on bone cancer symptoms.

Signs And Symptoms of Bone Cancer:

Bone cancer is a group of cancers that start in the bones (primary) and are rare.  On the other hand, cancers that start elsewhere and end up in the bones are more common.  This page is about primary bone cancer.  Bone pain is the most significant symptom.  Other signs and symptoms include swelling and tenderness near the tumor, frequent breaks, fatigue, fever, weight loss and anemia.  All of these symptoms can be signs of other, more likely conditions.  

Treatment Bone Cancer:

Most often, bone cancers present no danger of spreading.  In the cases where spreading is a risk or where the cancer has significantly decreased mobility, surgery to remove the cancerous tissue is the most common treatment.  In some cases, a limb needs to be removed, but there are other treatment options being developed.  Radiation and chemotherapy are sometimes used to either replace or accompany surgery, depending on the type and stage of the cancer.

What You Can Do About Bone Cancer:

If you've been diagnosed with a malignant Cancer, always retest and get a second opinion from another doctor.  Once confirmed, work with your doctor to make sure nothing you do interferes with the medical treatment.  Get the specific diagnosis in writing, including the name and stage of the Cancer.  Search the National Cancer Institute and other websites to learn all that's being done for your cancer.  Print relevant pages and make a list of specific questions for your doctor.  Write down his answers and check them on the web.  I know the doctor has a good education, but this is your health and your life.  The actions to help prevent Cancer below can often be used in stronger doses to fight cancer, but check with your doctor.

To help prevent Cancer:  If your family or lifestyle (see causes, above) puts you at a higher risk, you should consider these things essential to help prevent Cancer:  Follow a low fat diet with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.  Fill your life with aerobic activity and exercise.  Make sure you're drinking enough water.  Supplement your diet with natural Multi-Vitamins and Multi-Minerals, along with extra doses of the following to strengthen your immune system:

Antioxidants; including Beta Carotene, Flavonoids, LycopeneVitamin A, Zinc, Vitamin E, Vitamin C and CoQ10.
Organic Germanium; 300-450mg divided into 3 doses a day.
Fiber; 12-15 grams extra from vegetable sources or supplements.
Garlic; 3 cloves per day.
Omega 3; 3 per day, 1 at beginning of each meal.
Lecithin; taken with the Omega 3.
Molybdenum

Echinacea
Lipoic Acid

Total Healing:

Cancer is at best frightening, frustrating and painful...at worst, fatal.  We both know there are no guaranteed cures or quick fixes, whether medicine, nutrition, herbs or anything else.  Many illnesses are "incurable" from the medical standpoint.  Complete healing is possible...including mind, body and spirit...from God.  If you want God's help with this or any problem, go to Healing From God.
