Author  Topic    Gayliejo 2 Posts Posted - 05/06/2013 :  14:44:00     Hi all, Thanks so much for this forum! I was prescribed Efudex but after a few days the burning started, I found this forum, and just stopped. I am too scared to continue. What I found interesting is the amount of people who say it is gone when it may only be dormant, or that it has gone for a year - mine has been going for about five years, and often can go away for up to a year. This time, after the biopsy, and homeopathic remedy, I thought it was gone but 18 months later it is there again, same spot, just a bit smaller. I think the biopsy removed some of it, although I would like to think the homeopathy worked, or the healing, or the plants, or the orange oil, but nope, it is back. So I tried the Efudex. Next I am going to try the black salve / bloodroot. I have several AK's too - been trying dandelion on one on my hand and it is definitely getting smaller. Has anybody had a bcc that has been gone for more than two or three years?

Knock it out as fast as you can...either via traditional medicine ) Mohs) or one of the tried and true methods like blodroot paste ( be forewarned and do your own due diligence if you go the bloodroot paste route) There are dozens of other approaches here on this site...you owe t to your self to spend a few days educating yourself here before chosing how to knock that pesky tumor out... Good Luck! Gayliejo 2 Posts Posted - 05/16/2013 :  08:36:14     Thanks for that. What I would like to know is has anybody had one that has gone for more than three years? How do you know it has actually gone and isn't just dormant?    Topic
