Monsters on the Womb: Fibroid Tumors & Black Women

April 28, 2008

Picture of womb with multiple fibroid tumors

Over 10 years ago I had a procedure performed called a Myomectomy. In short, I had fibroid tumors removed from my womb. I was warned at that time that there was a great chance that they would grow back. Of course, as a born again Christian, I rebuked the very thought of them returning. I prayed, fasted, became a vegetarian, took herbs, and used a variety of natural minerals.

In spite of all my efforts, I went in last Thursday for a second procedure. I had the tumors removed by Laproscopy, which is why I was able to leave the hospital the very next day.

I refer to fibroids as “monsters on the womb” because that is exactly what they are. They run in my family on both sides. In my case, the tumors they took out of me weighed in at NINE pounds, ya’ll. I was walking around looking like a pregnant woman and the doctor told me I had them removed just in time, as they were starting to lean on my liver.

If you are a woman with fibroid tumors that are growing, don’t do what I did. I waited to have them removed a second time because I was determined that Jesus was going to heal me. Actually, He did. He healed me via the doctors that He has placed here in the earth realm.

My advice to any woman stricken with fibroids is to understand that vegetarianism won’t get rid of them. Trust me, I tried that. Eliminating dairy products won’t get rid of them. Taking tons of herbs won’t get rid of them. Meditating won’t get rid of them. Fibroid tumors are wicked. They just grow and grow and grow until they have invaded your entire insides. I just praise God that I went ahead and had these monsters removed.

Below is an article about fibroids. Keep in mind that the nutritional advice they give won’t work but the overall article is good:

It is estimated that 40 percent of African American women, before menopause, suffer with fibroid tumors. This in contrast to less than 20 percent for White women. Why the 100 percent differential? Is it genetics? Do African women on the continent also suffer disproportionately? The answer is no. I believe that the problem and the solution lie in the African American lifestyle.African American women are suffering with longer menstrual, heavy bleeding, bloating severely, and tremendous pain. Many of these fibroid tumors surpass the size of a grapefruit or a three-month-old fetus. Many women suffer for years under this torment.

Over time, fibroid tumors can lead to anemia. In addition, increased vaginal discharge and pain during sexual intercourse, discomfort during urination, constipation, backache, kidney obstruction, and can cause miscarriages.

Gynecologists will typically recommend either a myomectomy or a hysterectomy. Most doctors prefer the latter because it is easier for them to remove the entire uterus. The former, they say, requires too much work and is laborious, as they remove each individual tumor (which could be hundreds). Many doctors value their time over your body parts and ultimately hormone imbalances. The United States lead the world in performing hysterectomies. There are more than 550,000 performed annually, yet only 10 percent are performed for cancer. One-third of American women by the age of 60 have had a hysterectomy. African American women are 25 percent more likely to have this surgery than White women.

Unfortunately, many African American women never find out the root cause of their problem. They simply adhere to being rushed into surgery because the problem has become life threatening. What caused the tumors? Why is it disproportionally among African Americans? The answer lies in their diet. In my book, Satan, I am Taking Back My Health, I illustrate that the problem began with infant girls being fed cow’s milk rather than breast milk. God designed every mother with the milk for her child. Milk is not the same. Cow’s milk accelerate growth in humans. This explains why girls are starting their menstrual cycles as early as eight years old! More important, milk and other dairy products have an excessive amount of casein. This ingredient is used to make glue. If you rub the fibroid tumors, they are almost as hard as rocks.

I wonder how many African American women, tired from work and raising children, oftentimes alone, “treat” themselves in the evening with a bowl of ice cream, or a glass of warm milk with cookies, or a nice plate of cheese nachos. In America, cheese is placed in almost everything. Are ice cream, milk, cheese, and other dairy products really worth the accelerated deterioration of the women’s womb, resulting in radical surgeries? Do you love ice cream and cheese more than your uterus?

For many African American women, they were never given this information, therefore they cannot be faulted. For others, they knew, but lacked the discipline to alter their diet. For even others, they knew, but hoped there would be some drug they could take with their ice cream and cheese to alleviate the symptoms.

The solution to this problem is not simply the elimination of milk, ice cream, and cheese. This will help not to exercerbate the problem further. The major objective is to shrink and eliminate the tumors, not remove the uterus. This will require more time and commitment. Remember these tumors are a result of decades of abuse: consuming fried food, meat and foods filled with harmful chemicals. Ridding of the fibroid will require detoxifying the body including a liver and kidney flush. The Bible says “this kind requires prayer and fasting.”

Are you willing to fast 7, 14, or 21 days? Are you willing to give up meat until the tumors are dissolved? Are you willing to eliminate fried foods? Are you willing to eliminate cooked food until the tumors shrink? Are you willing to take daily enemas ( including coffee enemas). Are you willing to consume vegetable juices and wheat grass?

Herbs that have been proven to be successful in eliminating fibroid tumors are red raspberry, don quai, taheebo, chaparral red clover, bromelain, choline, carthamus, persica, ginger, squawvine, and butiao. Herbs are not drugs, therefore, they are not as effective in a toxic body. Please do not think you can eliminate detoxifying, by replacing drugs with herbs and be cured.

Toxic waste can also be removed with aerobic exercise (which creates sweating). Casual walks do not produce the heat necessary to eliminate waste much less stimulate the heart. Do White women exercise more than African American women? Do they weigh less? Research says yes.

Last, but not least, as a believer in the power of God through Jesus Christ, meditate on healing scriptures and confess that by His stripes I am healed. That’s real power!

Long Island Patients of Dr. E. Jacob Simhaee Are in Danger

January 16, 2008

It never fails to amaze me the ignorance of certain professionals who have no problems putting other people’s lives in jeapardy. An idiot doctor in Long Island took it upon himself to put his patients lives at risk by re-using needles, thus exposing them to all types of horrible diseases.

He needs to be prosecuted for attempted murder and he needs to lose his license for mal practice:

Dozens of patients of a doctor on Long Island are being urged to get tested for HIV and hepatitis after the health department says he reused syringes.

The patients were given flu shots at the Dr. E. Jacob Simhaee’s office in Manhasset.

Long Island reporter Emily Smith has the story.

The Nassau County health department says 36 patients who received flu shots from Dr. Simhaee have already been told to get tested.

This time, health department officials notified the public right away, instead of waiting three years like in a similar case this fall.

“I wouldn’t go to him,” area resident Pina Vaccaro said. “Of course, I wouldn’t.”

That’s how it seems everyone is reacting to a second outrageous scenario in Nassau County of a licensed doctor reusing syringes.

No one answered the door today at the office of Dr. Simhaee, a Manhasset OBGYN now deemed by the state and county to have put 36 of his patients coming in for flu shots at risk for HIV and hepatitis.

“Clearly was an oversight on his part,” said Dr. Abbey Greenberg, acting commissioner of the Nassau County Department of Health.

It is a significant oversight, considering once a needle is pulled out of the arm, a vacuum is created that leaves a little backflow of blood in the syringe. At that point, the next patient is exposed to blood-borne diseases.

Government Approves Cloned Animal Consumption for You and Your Family

January 15, 2008

First of all, the government knows NOTHING about cloned animals as it relates to safety. Secondly, why on earth would the government even consider allowing humans to eat cloned meat? What’s wrong with real, authentic meat?

Anyone who knowingly eats that filth is crazier than the one who flew over the Cookoo’s Nest!

Food from healthy clones of cattle, swine and goats is as safe as food from non-cloned animals, the Food and Drug Administration said in a report released Tuesday.

Debate has raged around food products from cloned cattle, such as this one produced by the company Viagen.

“Extensive evaluation of the available data has not identified any subtle hazards that might indicate food-consumption risks in healthy clones of cattle, swine, or goats,” the 968-page “final risk assessment” concluded.

“Thus, edible products from healthy clones that meet existing requirements for meat and milk in commerce pose no increased food consumption risk(s) relative to comparable products from sexually-derived animals.”

But the FDA said it needs more information to determine the safety of meat and milk from cloned sheep. The FDA also concluded that food from newborn cattle clones “may pose some very limited human food consumption risk.”

The purpose of using cloned animals is to improve the overall value of a given herd by creating genetic copies of donor animals, resulting in a herd that produces higher-quality milk and meat.

Homosexual Male Disease About to Hit Heterosexual Community

January 15, 2008

Back when AIDS was the “gay disease” everyone knew it was only a matter of time before the “down low” crew who are gay but pretend to be straight and the bisexuals would purposely spread the disease into the heterosexual community in hopes that by doing so, they would force a cure by forcing researchers to look into it. Well guess what? There still is no cure for AIDS and there is no guarantee there ever will be.

There is yet another disease out that is affecting homosexual men and I guarantee you that as we speak, wicked minds are trying to figure out how to pass that mess on to heterosexuals—in hopes, of course, that in so doing, they would force researchers to find a cure:

A drug-resistant strain of potentially deadly bacteria has moved beyond the borders of U.S. hospitals and is being transmitted among gay men during sex, researchers said on Monday.

They said methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, is beginning to appear outside hospitals in San Francisco, Boston, New York and Los Angeles.

Sexually active gay men in San Francisco are 13 times more likely to be infected than their heterosexual neighbors, the researchers reported in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

“Once this reaches the general population, it will be truly unstoppable,” said Binh Diep, a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco who led the study. “That’s why we’re trying to spread the message of prevention.”

Did you all hear that? Once it hits the heterosexual community it will be UNSTOPPABLE!

Folks, God is all wise. The Man warned us to wait until after marriage for sexual relations and if we would follow that ONE RULE all this mess would stop. Parents, please speak virginity to your children and teens. Please! Heaven help this country!

Mary J. Blige, Fifty Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean Caught Up in Steroid Scandal

January 13, 2008

The plot thickens in this steroid scandal. Have you ever wondered why certain celebrities suddenly gain and lose weight in all the right places, and suddenly, miraculously become “buff” seemingly overnight? Hmmmm…..

The names of R&B music star Mary J. Blige, along with rap artists 50 Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean, and award-winning author and producer Tyler Perry, have emerged in an Albany-based investigation of steroids trafficking that has already rocked the professional sports world, according to confidential sources.

Information has surfaced recently showing those stars are among tens of thousands of people who may have used or received prescribed shipments of steroids and injectable human growth hormone in recent years. Law enforcement officials have said they have no evidence in their sprawling multistate probe that customers, including Blige or other entertainers, violated any laws. Instead, they are targeting anti-aging clinics, doctors and pharmacists who prescribed the drugs.

For the life of me, I cannot imagine why anyone would take steroids, knowing that they lead to liver disease and a host of other problems. However, a fitness expert to the stars is at the center of this latest scandal:

In a brief interview at his Patchtogue office Friday, Diamond said patient privacy laws prohibit him from discussing the stars he has treated or why.

“I don’t have anything to do with athletes, I don’t do athletes,” Diamond said. “Anyone that wants to publicly state that they work with me can do so, it’s just I’m not allowed legally to state who I treat or who I don’t treat.”

Still, it appears evident Diamond caters to famous clients as evidenced by the many stars, including Steven Seagal, whose photographs — some autographed to Diamond — adorn his office’s walls.

“Because of this recent development as far as what I found out was going on with (Signature) pharmacy I was approached and I was … told not to discuss anything right now … because there’s investigations going on,” Diamond said, not elaborating.

Diamond said he had previously met officials from Signature pharmacy at anti-aging conventions, but that he learned of the year-old criminal case only recently.

Entertainers using steroids is not new. Last year, Hollywood action-film stalwart Sylvester Stallone paid a $2,975 fine in Australia to settle criminal charges he illegally possessed vials of steroids and human growth hormone discovered during a customs inspection of his luggage.

Stallone, 61, said he needed the drugs to treat his body for a slowdown of his pituitary gland production of growth hormone and for the grueling training he’s done over the years making films, according to the Australian Associated Press. But taking the substances in an effort to slow aging or promote healing, which is an unproven claim, is not an allowable reason for a physician to prescribe steroids or growth hormone.

Scientists Closer in Unlocking Autism Puzzle

January 12, 2008

My heart just aches for parents whose children are stricken with autism. It appears that researchers are coming closer to finding a genetic link. Let’s pray that a definite cause and cure are found in the near future:

Scientists have discovered the strongest link yet between specific chromosomal abnormalities and an increased risk of autism, the neurological disorder that affects up to one in every 166 children in the U.S.

The abnormalities were linked with certainty to only 1% of autism cases. But the researchers, reporting in the latest issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, say their work points the way to finding other genetic changes linked to the disease, as well as potential treatments—and prenatal screening tests that could spark ethical questions.

Using a very large genome scan, the researchers also discovered that the genetic abnormalities—either a deletion or a duplication of a section of chromosome 16—were not directly inherited from either parent. Instead they developed spontaneously during the embryonic stage of development, possibly due to interplay of various genetic factors inherited from the parents.

Through the use of new and very costly chromosome micro-array tests, doctors can detect the abnormalities in autism patients and their parents and then predict the risk of recurrence in subsequent pregnancies. “We are beginning to develop a full understanding of the autism spectrum disorder genome which…ultimately will lead to the discovery of treatments that have the greatest promise,” says Eric Lander, director of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, which took part in the research.

Eminem Overweight and Suffering Health Issues

January 08, 2008

Do you remember Eminem? Well I cannot picture him as anything other than thin, but reports are that he is nice and plump now (200 pounds)and recovering from both a heart ailment and pneumonia. I’ve heard that pneumonia is a real dog. Wish him a speedy recovery. Isn’t he kinda young to be falling apart like that? I guess that’s a reminder to all of us to stay active. We only get one heart.

Over the holidays, Marshall Mathers, aka Eminem, was under doctor’s care at a Detroit-area hospital for complications due to pneumonia,” the rapper’s publicist, Dennis Dennehy, said Tuesday. “He has since been released and is doing well recovering at home.”

TMZ.com reported that Eminem was rushed to the hospital over the holidays for a serious heart condition and severe pneumonia and now weighs in at 200 pounds.

Ice Skater, Dorothy Hamill Fighting Cancer

January 04, 2008

   I was sad to read that Dorothy Hamill has breast cancer. I pray that it was caught early and that she will fully recover.

Former Olympic gold medalist Dorothy Hamill is undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Hamill said in a statement Friday that she is being treated at the Kimmel Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins. The prognosis is favorable, but the 51-year-old Hamill said she will miss some of the “Broadway on Ice” tour while she is having treatment. She hopes to rejoin the tour in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., where the tour stops on Jan. 16-17.
