Dr Simoncini talks about all forms of skin cancer but this thread is just about BCC. Has anyone treated a melanoma?

| Didn't read everything very well, did I? Just reviewed it and saw logicman's treatment of biopsied melanoma. Was wondering what stage of healing the biopsy cut was in. Where you recommended other treatment, what was it and did you need it after iodine treatment? Any other advice and more info on internal treatment still welcome. |

Hi,
First let me say that it's great to hear from you although I'm sure we both wish the circumstances were different. Before I reply to your questions, I want to say that (1) your not alone and (2) a client of mine, Troy Aikmanm a former Dallas Cowboys quarterback, has been treated for melanoma years ago and is still going strong. Now for my own perspective concerning your questions (in bold text below):

Naturally, it's too soon to tell.
Dr Simoncini talks about all forms of skin cancer but this thread is just about BCC. Has anyone treated a melanoma?
To my knowledge, no one on this thread has provided confirmed records of a 100% cure using iodine for melanoma. My own experience is limited to BCC and that I can speak confidently about.
Does the treatment change if the surface part of the mole has been removed surgically (and is still stitched)?
Probably only an oncologist could say.
Also, the risk is that the cancer has spread to somewhere else in the body.
Yes, that risk does exist and I would strongly recommend finding the absolute best oncologist possible and have them run thorough tests. Get a second or even a third opinion if necessary. Do not take any chances.
I am confused about the internal treament and iodine / baking soda (or powder? the two are different).
According to Dr. Simoncino, iodine is recommended for surface cancers (skin) and baking soda is more appropriate for internal cancers involving bones or organs. The baking soda is apparently used as a lavage where it washes over the internal organs and bones using IV or some similar method. Iodine can be "painted" onto skin surfaces so it's a fairly convenient application, but not an approprite method for internal access.
I will find out in a week how thick the melanoma is and therefore what conventional treament is recommended, but if it is melanoma I will have the threat of a cancer popping up anywhere anytime for the rest of my life, so would much rather be proactive and prevent that happening.
If there's one thing I can adamantly suggest, follow your doctor's advice explictly. If he or she suggests something you're not 100% in agreement, then have another oncologist in mind. Locate the best in your area and be willing to travel if necessary. There are great and caring doctors out there.
Oh, I am a 56 year old caucasian woman.
I, along with many who follow this blog, wish you the very best! As I said earlier, this is something YOU CAN OVERCOME! Just kn ow you're not alone and there are some fine doctors who can treat this so you'll have a long and healthy life.Sincerely,
Chuck

Thanks for your kind words, Chuck.
I now have the verdict and it is about as good as the news can be, given that it is a melanoma. From what I can gather, it's a melanoma in situ although what I was told is that it is an "early melanoma" and had been entirely excised. I don't need any further treatment, just 6-monthly checkups. I feel like the jury has given a guilty verdict but I've been let off with a lifetime good behaviour bond!
Regardless of the outcome, it has been a big wake-up call for me. Over the last few years, my diet has slipped a bit, my weight has increased, the amount of exercise I do has dropped off and the cholesterol has increased. The threat of cancer has given me the motivation I need to do something about it. My willpower has been tested in the last week on several occasions and I refused pieces of cakes, slices and chocolate. I've been eating a lot of fruits and vegetables to try to have a more alkaline diet and will be supplementing with minerals that Australians are typically short on because our soils are deficient eg. magnesium, iodine. I have gone off all dairy products as well. |

Hi Again,
I'm so relieved to hear that you'll be fine! Your analogy of being found guilty but released on bond was very witty. I also liked your pro-active response. That's a reminder to us all that although iodine treatments may be helpful for certain types of skin cancers, it's far better to never get one. If Dr. Simoncini's theory is true that many cancers are caused by Candida fungus, adjusting to a more alkaline diet should reduce our cancer risks. Thanks for sharing your situation and wonderful news.
Be Blessed!
Chuck |

| I am new to this forum and have long been studying the relationship between cancer and fungi. I believe they are indeed linked. I am going to use the iodine on a spot that I have. I see that some of you use lugol's 5% because of the lack of alcohol. I am leary in changing Dr Simoncini's recipe for tinchure. Does anyone know if the alcohol contributes to killing the fungi or if it's just a stabelizer? |

Greetings!
According to Dr. Simoncini, the alcohol helps the iodine penetrate deeper into the skin. If you have a super-high tolerance for pain, then it might work faster than a water-based iodine like Lugols. But here's the problem. The iodine will cause the treated area to dramatically react and it inevitably leads to raw and highly sensitive skin. Now imaine pouring alcohol on an open wound and that's what you'll experience with tincture.
I along with others in this blog have successfully treated large and deep skin cancers using Lugols or a similar solution. Even a water-based iodine will cause some pain, but it's 1/10 the pain level of tincture. I've used both.
So I appreciate your concern, but wanted to explain why Dr. Simoncini suggests tincture and why it hasn't been followed by some including myself, yet we've still had success.
Hope that helps. BTW, I outline my own protocol in a previous post and some of the others who've been successful also describe their treatment. You'll find some really helpful info.
Sincerly,
Chuck |

| CHuck, Thank you for your quick response. I read the entire thread which is what convinced me to do the iodine. I apprecitate all the helpful information here. I actually used Steve_Canada's recipe to boil off the alcohol and water in 2% iodone since I couldn't get my hands on lugol's 5% right away. I have had more than 30 basil cells and a melanoma surgically removed. I look as if I have been abused by a cigarette. The current one is actually a melanoma confirmed by a shave biopsy. It was the sight of a basil cell that when surgically removed formed a keloid scar (or so my dermatologist called it). After a year my intuition got the best of me and I sceduled it for a biopsy. It turned out to be desmoplastic melanoma which looks nothing like your typical melanomas. The edges were smooth, no irregularities. The color was pink and it was raised and firm like a scar. I have already seen a surgeon but have opted to go this route this time. I know it is not recommended but as I said, I am convinced that this is a fungus. I have been studying this theory for over a year now. Thanks to all again and I will post regularly to let everyone know the progress. |

Hi, I am new to the forum, though I posted a message on another topic - skin cancer ... Also, I'm from Australia, so excuse any wierd spelling.
I've been applying a 7g iodine, 5g pottasium iodide with alcohol solution as Dr Simoncini suggests. The problem is that my BCC (fibrosing, confirmed biopsy) is on my upper lip. This is the 13th day and I am resting it because I was too liberal with the diameter of the application and I think it needs to heal (has sloughed off a second scab). It is very difficult to detect whether I need to keep applying the solution. I also have the Lugol's solution so may begin with that when I build up enough nerve.
Thanks for your helpful comments Chuck, and others. All the best. |

It's been nearly 4 wks since I started treating my melanoma with iodine. I was applying it with wide margins and I became concerned after a few days of treatment because I was having no pain. I was afraid it wasn't penetrating so I incorporated the alcohol. BIG MISTAKE. As you'll see when I post my photos, it burned my skin. (waiting until I heal so I have befoe and afters) However, it looks like I had a chemical peel because my freckles in that area are diminished now. I have had two scabs come off and the third is smaller but still there. I know Simoncini says that after the third, it is presumed to be healed.
I too am wondering if I should stop after the third scab comes off or keep applying for good measure. I dont want to take any chances of leaving some behind. |

Following up on my previous posts.
I treated 3 spots with Lugol for 4 weeks during the Holidays. One spot (not confirmed) was - according to the MDs - clearly a BCC. The other 2 spots were suspicious. All three spots disappeared successfully. However about 10 weeks after treatment the spot diagnosed as a BCC came back. I believe this is because I stopped too early with the Lugol. I was afraid I was burning my skin and I decided to stop. Looking back I think I should have continued for 2 or 3 weeks.
Since Lugol is quite a "messy" adventure this time I tried an ointment that was recommended to me https://www.organicteatreeoil.com/therapeutic-skin-care/sulforaphane/sulforaphane-dna-restore-ointment-50-ml
It worked! It took about 2 weeks. The spot became reddish and slightly inflamed. It dried up and fell. The skin looks really good now. Not messy, not painful.
Warning - Even though doctors told me it was a BCC this was never confirmed. But I still wanted to relate the story in order to add to our body of knowledge and experiments. Someone else may want to try the ointment on a bcc and see if it helps. A little bit goes a long way and if budget is an issue the also offer a 15 ml container. Disclaimer: I don't know the company or its directors and I have nothing to gain for anyone purchasing their products.
PS: I regret not taking pictures. If I could go back in time I would add pictures to my posts. Thank you for those of you who are doing it. It makes a huge difference.

Hi,
I wanted to respond to the recent posts so the full benefit of the iodine treatments are manifested. First, it's crucial that people continue the iodine applications for 2 - 3 weeks AFTER THE LESION IS FULLY HEALED. You should see a smooth skin surface free of any blemishes while you continue to treat it. I understand it's laborious and I also know it's not Dr. Simoncini's recommendation, but I can tell you from personal experience that if you stop treatments before this, you'll see recurrence with new lesions. My personal theory is that Candida is difficult to eradicate and actually lives in colonies surrounding the primary lesion (Ground ero). If they're not completely killed, they'll multiply and attack again. That's why I recommended in previous posts that you brace yourself for the long-haul and nuke them. From personal experience, it's very discouraging to re-visit the iodine therapy after you thought the problem was behind you. I had to do that and made sure the second time that all was gone. It's now been several months and my skin is perfectly clear.
Next I want to re-emphasize that although Dr. Simoncini recommends using iodine with alcohol (tincture), I would avoid doing that unless you really love intense pain. When you use Lugols 5% solution, you're able to more liberally and more frequently apply it which means you'll be more likely to continue treatments for a longer term. That's crucial. If you start and stop, the Candida re-groups and you'll be in a worse condition emotionally plus not see the anticipated goal. So please take my advice and use Lugols, apply it liberally and frequently. I posted my personal application protocol in detail on this blog in case you wish to follow my treatment which worked perfectly.
Just here to help people avoid disappointing results or unnecessary pain.
Sincerely,
Chuck |

After posting the above, I read back thru this thread and found my answers. I will continue to paint the iodine until the core is gone and thereafter, for a while, as well.
As I said before, I do believe cancer is a fungus. All the remedies you see being used are anti-fungal. Baking soda, iodine, tea tree oil, garlic...all antifungals.
It seems the key is to kill it before it has time to adapt to the treatment and make sure you leave no cells to rear their ungly heads later.

| Bought the Lugol's 5% Iodine and started putting it on my husband's ear where a cancer lesion has appeared. First put on one of the cancer creams I can't remember the name of and then I started putting the Iodine on. It has made the leasion worse..appears to be not healing so I have stopped the Iodine. A bit worried about this. Maybe I should have just left it after my husabnd put the cream on. Any thoughts would be appreciated. |

I'm subscribed to this thread, so I get an email every time someone posts to it. I did a successful iodine treatment a year ago, but since I'm not currently treating myself, I usually just delete the emails. However, I have an undiagnosed growth on the back of my neck that I'm planning to treat this summer, and I think it was Providential I decided to look at the posts today. Your caution about the duration of the treatment will mean a change in what I do, and hopefully, the success I realize.
Thank you for posting when you did. Also thanks for reminding us about the greater comfort of Lugol's, since I have both solutions on hand.

Hi Lane,
It's been awhile since we've communicated (almost a year). It's great to hear from you!
BTW, did you hear the Japanese government passed out iodine tablets to everyone living near the nuclear disaster? They obviously learned something about iodine from Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
Take care and thank you for sharing your experience.
Sincerely,
Chuck

Well, here goes with my second use of this technique. I reported on the successful first usage in an earlier post in this thread.
This time will be more challenging, because the bump is much larger than the first one, which was diagnosed as a basal cell carcinoma. This bump is undiagnosed because of the cost of examination and biopsy. It has been slowly growing for over a year, and I've not treated it before because it's located where my shirt collars come in contact. I was hoping to treat it this summer and just wear T-shirts, but my employment situation changed to where that's not possible. So I guess I'll use some kind of bandage to protect my shirts.
The bump is a little over 1/2" long in the longest dimension and is quite rounded above the surface of the skin around it. I'll report on progress as it occurs.

Hi Lane,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It will be interesting to track your progress. If I may be so bold, any bandage you apply should be very loose-fitting. As a veteran of this treatment, I'm sure that was your plan since allowing maximum air-circulation is crucial.
Mine was on my cheek so when I went out, I'd but on a very large band-aid and make sure the cotton pad wasn't lying next to the bcc. I used the band-aid simply as a visual shield. I pulled it off as soon as I was back home. Even that small amount of coverage time noticeably affected the healing rate, but it was during the holidays so I had no choice (just like your situation).
Lane, I know you'll be successful and wish you the very best!
Sincerely,
Chuck |

Hello,
Thank you for this most informative thread. Thought I'd share my story and also seeking further support and advice towards a full recovery. I apologise in advance if this is too graphic for some.......
I have a nodular basal cell ca. (NBCC) on my face, which first evolved about 3 to 4 years ago. I have been plauged with white heads which appear from time to time and I simply revmove same with a sharp needle. This BCC appeared to present the same way as a - tiny but firm round lump under the skin, only every time I tried to excise it, it simply became bigger. It was visually diagnosed by two doctors - one was a General Practitioner and the other is a high profile Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon who happened to be presenting at a conference I was attending. He said he'd bet his bank balance on it and that I needed to "have it seen to asap"
The NBCC was a raised circle of about 4mm diam x 2mm high and is sited 1/2 way between the left side of my lower nose and left lip corner - so it is highly visible. I chose not to seek surgery as given it's site, I would be left extremely disfigured if anything went wrong.
Before reading about Dr. Simoncini and stumbling across this site, I started to "burn" it off with an across the counter treatment. 2 weeks in and this eventually left a raised doughnut area with a raw middle surface. The raw surface never had any bleeding and was rather blanched in appearance. After reading from Dr. S. I purchased the 7% Iodine from a compouding pharmacy and launched into painting the area with a cotton tip which stained a dark brown. The iodine did initially give a strong burning sensation.
A couple of days later is when I think I found this site, so decided to follow instructions re: covering a wider area with the iodine. I painted an extra 2cms around the NBCC but ended up with a burn that was very sore - the skin went quite red and eventually peeled, so didn't revisit that idea.
The lesion has had a couple of scabs which have come away, and I now have an almost skin level "donut" shape remaining - still with a small raw middle "bowl shape" spot - but much smaller that before. When I apply the iodine now, I barely feel a tingle.
 Is the "donut" of raised skin normal? Do others get this?
Do you think it will eventually heal and scar with this shape?
Should I keep going with the iodine?
Do you think it will scab again as I don't experience burning since the last scab came off?
I appreciate anything anyone has to share to help here. I have taken some photos and will see if I can load them. I don't have any of the lesion at it's worst during treatment, but you'll get the gist.
Thanks to everyone for sharing.

Hi,
First, thank you for sharing your situation and in such detail. People following this blog are used to the graphic reality of BCC's.
I'm not sure what the difference is between a "nodule"BCC and just a common BCC so my advice may not be 100% since I've not dealt with that distinction. So I invite anyone that's knowledgeable to join in on this discussion.
Lastly, it's been mention about the better qualities of Lugols iodine and I listed some specific treatment details in case you experience pain. So please look for those if that need arises.
In response to your specific questions, but with the mutual understanding that it's difficult to truly assess things without more details, here's my thoughts to your questions:
QUESTION: Is the "donut" of raised skin normal? Do others get this?
ANSWER: Yes, the iodine will cause definitely cause a visible reaction where the affected area swells, cracks, bleeds, etc. This is inevitable and you should actually consider this a good sign. I can't speak to the specific shape, but the raised area usually represents the "sick" area.
QUESTION: Do you think it will eventually heal and scar with this shape?
ANSWER: It should heal if you complete the treatment and it should not scar as long as you don't disturb the wound (pick or peel the scab).
QUESTION: Should I keep going with the iodine?
ANSWER: Absolutely! You must continue at least 2 - 3 weeks AFTER the bcc is totally invisible. If you stop too soon, it will probably re-emerge and you'll have to do this all over again. Don't think in terms of "curing it". Instead, think in terms of "nuking it". Yjos bcc is your enemy and you want to eradicate it once and for all.
QUESTION: Do you think it will scab again as I don't experience burning since the last scab came off?
ANSWER: It might. This is where an on-site inspection would help. Mine went through several scabs before it completely healed so it's hard to say for sure. Just keep treating it until your totally free of the bcc, your skin is perfect and there's absolutely no sign of the bcc. Once you've gotten to that place, keep up the treatments a bit longer to make sure it won't return.
Again, I've posted my treatment protocol that worked 100% for bcc. Please look for that. It details exactly what I did and why.
Good luck to you and thanks again for sharing your story.
Sincerely,
Chuck |

I was glad to see this part of your reply, because I was wondering about leaving the new scab undisturbed. I was afraid it was keeping the iodine from getting to the problem.
Reading the whole thread again is a bit daunting, so I'm assuming the above means, "Leave the scab alone!"

Hi Lane,
Yes sir, it's important not to disturb the scab. The scab tissue appears to be porous (more fibrous) so it absorbs the iodine quite well. In fact, a good way to monitor your healing progress is to watch how dark the scab turns when the iodine is applied. The darker the scab, the deeper and fresher is the wound below. As the wound heals, the scab becomes lighter upon treatment. That's one sign that you're making good progress. In the last days of treatment, the wound area has a normally light coloration like the surrounding healthy skin.
I don't recall you said it, but the beauty of iodine is that the wound heals from the "bottom-up" and not the "top-down". This allows the lower levels of tissue to heal first and the top layer heals last. If you remove the scab, the lower tissue may be healed OK, but the visible skin could be left with a scar or surface imperfection.
Sincerely,
Chuck

Hi Chuck,
Are you suggesting that applying the Iodine in one layer 3 - 5 times a day is probably enough, as I thought Simoncini was talking about 10 - 20 layers 1 -2 times a day?
If you mean multiple layers, how many and do you apply the multiple layers straight away while it is still wet?

Hi Fred,
I think Dr. Simoncini uses a brush and each layer is a "wipe" over the area. When you've wiped the area 20 times (one after the other while it's wet, that represents one treatment. That's how I understood it, but his explanation isn't perfectly clear about that.
I took away from his explanation that you want to heavily cover the area. Therefore, I simply used the tip of the glass applicator and carefully, but liberally "painted" the bcc and its surrounding area. As I ran the tip of the applicator directly onto the skin, it soaked into the area. I didn't have a specific amount in mind, just wanted to fully soak the area. I saturated it until I reached "run off" and it started to drip off the skin.
When I soaked the area as described, I allowed it to dry into the skin. I started a new application about once every 4 - 6 hours. Over a period of days, you can tell the iodine penetration was getting deeper. That was partly due to constantly saturating it each time and partly due to the skin reacting and "opening up" (cracking / peeling).
As you apply the iodine, the core of the bcc is very dark just after each treatment. On my light skin, it would turn dark reddish-brown while the surrounding area was a lighter red. As the bcc healed, the dark core began to disappear. That enabled me to visually track the progress even though the top surface of skin was still raw. Eventually, the dark core no longer appeared following treatment (even when saturated). That marked the final stage of healing and the top surface quickly improved.
But I made the mistake initially of thinking I could stop treatments after the top surface was free of blemishes. In fact, Dr. Simoncini alludes that this is OK to do. But my bcc attempted to re-form within a few weeks so I began a second round of treatments and this time kept treating the area for 2 - 3 weeks AFTER the top surface was perfectly clear of blemish. That's been several months ago and I've not seen any signs of a reoccurrence in that area. However, I've had 2 other areas (not on my face) that I needed to treat and those were recently cleared. So I've personally had this work 3 times on me.
Anyway, sorry to be long-winded but I wanted to make sure you had as much information as I could offer. Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Chuck |

Chuck, we all owe you a big debt of thanks for the thorough way you have shared your experiences with us.
My own current experience is moving along. The scab is considerably larger than the original "bump" and that may reflect the total amount of skin actually involved.
I'm following your procedure of dabbing on the juice until it starts to run, and I'm applying it 4-5 times/day.
The bcc (or whatever it is) is where it shows and where it would contact my shirt. So I wear a loose "band-aid" over it to protect my shirt and to keep from grossing out others.

Thanks Chuck, your detailed info is very useful, it is often
hard to find such details in regard to health issues.

Hi Fred,
Thank you and Lane for those kind words. It's truly my pleasure to be of assistance. I recall the fear when my dermatologist nonchalantly announced my "spots" were skin cancers. I had several removed by laser and knife and most returned within 1 - 2 years. Due to success treating my bcc's with iodine, I appreciate this forum and enjoy giving back. Hearing from you and Lane makes it even more motivating.
Sincerely,
Chuck |

Another success story for you.
As you know I've been treating my Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma myself at home (see my previous post) and am thrilled and elated to announce it has all gone! Yay!
I delayed posting this just in case any regrowth started but it's been all ok now for about 3 weeks.
There is a very small blanched spot in the middle which has left a small "dent" in the skin - but hey, it's better than the lump that was there before. The skin all around which I treated with the 7% iodine is all normal and pink.
I assume the blanched bit is due to what I was initially treating the lump with before I found this site.
I will massage pawpaw ointment in daily to see if I get further results.
I am very happy! |

I've been using Lugol's on my undiagnosed bump (see gross photo above) for two months now. I still have a big scab, which is a bit disappointing in that I thought I would see more clearing by now.

Hi Rosebud,
Awesome news - I'm thrilled for you! The one thing I might suggest is be cautious about using moisturizing creams in that area. At least for awhile. I'm not sure if all creams are a problem, but when I used a cream on my cleared area (this was after the first round of healing), there was a small re-occurence which I had to re-treat. If skinb cancers are caused by fungus (Candida), the moisturizers may provide a fertile environment. I would wait perhaps a month or so before applying those if it were me. Just a thought.
Again, congratulations - you made my day!
Sincerely,
Chuck |

| I found this forum a couple of months ago and started using the baking soda on my bcc on my nose (about the size of a pencil eraser). I went through the OMG what have I done phase when it came to the surface and looked awful and then I switched over to the Lugol's iodine after it seemed to be settling down. I never got a scab and I didn't have pain from either the soda or the iodine to any degree, but I could see 'normal' skin beginning to fill the small opening. Then I got pneumonia. The doc said I needed to be hospitalized, but I refused. I did agree to treatment (prednisone for 12 days, a Z-pack AND 875mg of Augmentin). As you can guess, I experienced MAJOR yeast infection and the bcc swelled up big time. Now I'm starting all over. I'm going to go with the soda for a few days and then start back on iodine. I've seen the 'traditional' (Mohs) pictures, so this HAS to work! Wish me luck! |

I said I would come back and give an update on my desmoplastic melanoma that I treated with the iodine. Here's a recap:
I had a bc removed which formed a "keloid scar" (as my dermotologist called it). A year later, it was bugging me so I returned to dermo. He said it had grown so he wanted to do a shave biopsy, which he did and it was desmoplastic melanoma. I'm not sure he even suspected melanoma nor did I.
I decided to try the iodine even though it was melanoma. I believe all cancers have a fungal link. I used 2% tincture boiled down, 5% lugols, then switched to the 7% tincture. Applied several times a day over the course of 3 months. The lesion grew and became swollen, and raised and painful. It began to look like a "tumor" and only parts of it would scab over the rest just oozed and bled all the time. I decided to go ahead with the WLE just last week. I figured 3 months was long enough to experiment and I should probably just get it gone!
Anyway, just wanted to say that I propbably shouldn't have tried this with melanoma and I dont recommend it. Who knows, maybe with continued use it would have killed it but after 3 months, I was afraid to continue. Also, if you have an undiagnosed lesion, I would strongly recommend having it looked at, especially if you have a history of bc or other cancers. I would never have thought mine was melanoma. It was smooth, pink and raised like a keloid scar. It did not have the typical A,B,C,Ds of melanoma.
If I ever have another BC, I will definitely use the iodine but it just didn't seem to be working fast enough for my melanoma. |

Iodine (Lugol's, 7%) has appeared to work somewhat for me with a cancer I have had on my forehead. It's difficult to know if it's gone permanently, it still ocasionally feels tingly or itchy but only slightly. I used the Lugol's for several months. After a while it healed over leaving a dint in the skin.
It hurt a bit and was a bit ugly at the destruction stages but hey, what would the doctors have done but put a huge hole in my face and almost certainly cut a nerve and disfigured me I was warned. I'm only just forty and I'm an actor and performing musician. It matters a lot.
I'm not entirely sure whether there is some cancer left growing beneath the skin, or some bad cells left in the dint where it was, though it's not looking bad at the moment.
I've acquired some Curaderm BEC5 and another restorative cream, but I'm careful about using them as they seem not designed to be applied on normal skin to reach anything underneath. If anyone knows anything to the contrary, please correct me.
Does anyone know where I can buy the Cesium Carbonate recommended by some, to dissolve in water and apply to hopefully knock out any remaining bad cells?

Hi Overthere,
Thank you for the post and am so glad to hear you've taken th etime to research this. I wanted to quickly respond to your question regarding the quantity of Lugol's you should purchase. I've successfully treated four Bcc's and my wife has treated on of her own. I still have 1/3 of my original bottle. So for roughly $17.50 (67% of $25), we're treated 5 Bcc's.
So I feel pretty confident a single 1oz bottle will be more than enough if you're treating less than 6 - 7 spots.
I also want to mention one other thing, I can only attest to my personal results involving Bcc's. So to anyone besides Overthere who might read this, it's very important to have a professional diagnose the type of skin cancer. Personally, I would not attempt this treatment for Sarcoma or Melanoma.
I wish you the very best results!
Sincerely,
Chuck |

| overthere, I used cureaderm for sc and bc. The spots spread across my face, nocking out aks rapidly. I am still dealing with some deep bc's, mainly in the places where I had moes 20 years ago. I am now washing with bobs bakeing soda, then put on iodine, let that dry, add curaderm, then I put on a peace of tape. I do the cureaderm twice a day. Curaderm works really fast on ak's. I had my whole face checked out by a derm. twice. Its been 5 years with no return. Once they get to be full blown bc's or ak's, thats when they take longer. I tried ps but I find it leaves a kind of blistery looking thing, that dosn't go away, so I am retreating those spots with the above method. I really like the iodine but bc's have those roots that spread out, and I worry that the iodine won't follow them all the way because of the hard scab. |

I posted a photo of my "neck bump" before starting treatment in this thread 5/19/11. It's been about 3 months now of 4-5 Lugol's treatments daily.
In the photo below there is a large iodine-stained area of skin, a smaller hard scab area, and a central depression in the scab. I'm not sure what caused the depression.
I occasionally pick at the edges of the scab, due to lack of self-control, I guess. Originally, the whole iodine-stained area was scabbed over, but the scab size has diminished with time. The current scab is about the same size as the original bump.

Hi Lane,
Thank you fo the update. It appears that although it's taking quite awhile that you're making slow, but sure progress. I recall you're working and needed to keep the area covered. I wantaed to ask if you felt the covering had unhindered air circulation? The less air (and thus less dry) the spot, the longer it takes to heal. So I was curious if the covering was loose and allowed air to freely flow undersneath it?
As for the size, the "core" you're seeing is Ground Zero for the entire cancer which has a much larger perimeter. So when you're down to the just the core remaining, the final healing should appear to be quicker (at least from my personal experience).
I know this isn't easy and I commend you for hanging in there. When that core is 100% gone, please treat it for another couple of weeks so you never have it re-occur. My wife and I still marvel at the area on my cheek that was huge and has been blemish-free for about a year now.
Sincerly,
Chuck |

Hi Overthere,
In reply to your questions, I just used a small pair of scissors to carefully clip my beard hair that grew near or in the affected area. I wasn't too worried about getting it close, just enough to keep in control. As for showering, I never directly touched the area, but allowed the water to briefly rinse it. But don't use soap with moisturizer - a very important detail. Also, let it air dry totally before you treat with iodine. The area should stay as dry as possible so the iodine soaks deep into the skin. Moisture and heat is a perfect growing condition for fungus so you want to keep the area dry with plenty of air circulation.
Hope that helps. I'll be out of pocket the next several days due to a family emergency, but will respond when I return in case of further questions.
Sincerely,
Chuck |

I never want to question someone else's miracle, but here's some information you may find useful.
The formula for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2. The 2's should be subscripts, but that's not possible here. Each molecule of hydrogen peroxide is composed of two atoms of hydrogen (H) and two atoms of oxygen (O).
The bubbling that is observed when H2O2 is applied is caused by the presence in all living cells of catalase. This enzyme breaks the molecule down to hydrogen (H2) and oxygen O2) gases.
quote:
1. The curative power of H2o2 is (in part) due to the way it delivers EXTRA OXYGEN to the site. So if these "cancers" really are FUNGAL in nature, that extra oxygen should help kill them!
You're right about the delivery of oxygen, but I'm not sure how that would harm the fungus. I don't think any fungi are obligate anaerobes (fancy term for critters that can't live with oxygen). I might be wrong, though.

Unfortunately, the "work" has dried up, but fortunately, I don't have to keep the area covered as much. I use a regular "band-aid," so I think air circulation is pretty good at all times.
I was glad to read your recommendation about having the spot dry, and this may relate a bit to my slow progress. It's been my practice to soap the spot during my nightly showers and then to apply the iodine almost immediately afterward. I will immediately change that behavior!

I'd say it's about the same size, although it's hard to tell with the scab there.
I like your suggestion of increasing the frequency of treatment. I think I'll up it to about every 2 hours or so and see if that helps.

Thank you for that link! It certainly looks like an approach to consider. Too bad you can't just buy the sap somewhere, but I guess the "drug company police" would prevent its being marketed. One would need to find some other non-medicinal use for it, and sell it only for that purpose.

I'll read... or at least skim... the milkweed thread and see if I think growing them is feasible. I'm not sure about growing seasons and such. I'm not in a situation where indoor growing is likely to be possible.

Another suggestion for you:
Apparently almost all cancer patients turn out to be Iodine Deficient. Do some research and consider taking two drops of Lugol's orally per day (in a glass of water or other liquid).
Actually, I used to take iodine that way; don't know why I stopped. I think I'll start again.

Hello Johnny Mac,
I believe from my google research that Dr. Tullio Simoncini works out of THE SHEN CLINIC
Have a look at their website & you may be able to send an email or give a call.
Good luck with it all!!
May that brain tumor go take a hike!
Also, worth googling Dr Bryzinski as well if your interested (he's in the usa)
(With apologies to all for the digression.....) |

Thank you so much for your help Rosebud and Overthere! I will check the Shen clinic out and see what i can find. Will also look at the Dr Bryzinski.
I have already been on the websites you suggested Overthere ,but can not seem to get a response? I have read Dr Simonici's book but it still only gives directions to the various websites. Will keep you posted! By the way......what an amazing thing this forum is, and how wonder full are the people that contribute to it . once again....thank you. x

My current spot is also vertical, and the scab seems to be the main absorber of iodine. I don't remember a problem at the beginning; maybe your skin is too "greasy" from the earlier treatment. I seem to recall the scab formed pretty quickly, so maybe that eliminates the drain-off.
I waste a certain amount of solution with each treatment, because I dab it on with the dropper until a drop forms at the bottom of the area. Then I use a folded tissue to blot the drop.

You want to buy Lugol's from JM Crow & Company. Just Google that company name and look for the 5% iodine. Lugol's is a maximum 5% strength - the 7.5% is probably iodine tincture which means it contains alcohol. That makes it very painful so you'll want real Lugol's which is water-based.
Good luck!

I suspect that's a =tincture= (alcohol solution), whereas Lugol's is a solution of iodine and potassium iodide in water. the former stings a lot more.

Yes! I've noticed I get more burning if the scab is wet, such as from a recent shower. I know the recommendation is for the scab to be dry, but I suspect a moist scab absorbs better than a dry one.
I may be wrong, but in light of my slow progress, I have started applying a warm, wet rag before every other application. I'm applying every two hours now when possible.

I don't think there's any danger there. The I/KI is not volatile; only the water will evaporate, leaving the iodine behind.
OTOH, while it's in solution, it can soak into the scab more readily, I would think.

Yes, I was just commenting about the evaporation. I don't know anything about overdosing.
But yes, I find it actually painful after I've applied the warm, wet rag for a while and then applied the iodine.
I googled that hydrogen peroxide will soften and dissolve scabs. YMMV, but I'm tempted to try it.

I was told by a doc that scabs tend to promote scarring, so it's best to cover a wound with vaseline to prevent scab formation.
In our situation, I don't think we're after removing the scab so much as making it more porous to the iodine.

I don't know if you've read this thread, but it's based on a physician's hypothesis that skin cancers are the result of fungal infections.
I will add, since I've posted a number of times, that I have given up on the iodine treatment for my lesion. After several months it became obviously ineffective. I've ordered some Petty Spurge seeds for my next attempt at self-treatment. http://www.topicalinfo.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=273 is the thread dealing with that technique. |

Dr. Tullio Simoncini treats Skin Cancer using a special formula available in any Pharmacy in Italy plus most Compound Pharmacies can make up 1 ounce or 8 ounce solutions. I cannot use Alcohol at 45 or 85 percent because it cracks my skin so we only use distilled water with the formula.
Dr. Simoncini gave this formula to me today:
The formula is
7 grams iodine
5 grams potassium iodide
5 mls distilled water
alchool to reach 25 mls
All the best
Tullio Simoncini
Obviously the formula is for a 1 ounce or 30 mls bottle. Not sure how to measure the amounts necessary to have an 8 ounce bottle made up but do recommend ALL shake any bottle with the solutions before application. We bought 2 percent solutions from CVS and Walgreens plus even Supermarkets to get the applicator and threw out the 2 percent with high alcohol solutions to use the bottles. We found perfect 2 ounce plastic bottles with applicators for $3.69 at a local Supermarket and bought two. Remember in America only a DEA Licensed Pharmacist can make up the solution 7 percent with 5 percent Potassium Iodide --- Something normally ordered from a Compound Pharmacy by Prescription from a doctor often required.
Remember also that being a FUNGUS one must take special care washing family clothing to use granular bleach to kill FUNGI plus be sure to find something like 'MOLD ARMOR' to spray on your showers or tubs. I have asked Dr. Simoncini to provide the formula for destroying all Cancer inside the body by spraying like lung or rectal tumors or injection by Catheter or Syringe for internal organ tumors. Dr. Simoncini cures BREAST CANCER in 4 days using Sodium Bicarbonate or perhaps best known as ARM AND HAMMER BAKING SODA type solutions of perhaps 5 percent with distilled water.
DO PASS ALONG THE CANCER CURE INFORMATION FOR SKIN AND INTERNAL !
I have asked the Nobel Prize Committee to award Dr. Tullio Simoncini the Nobel Prize for Medicine for his discovery and cure techniques PLUS we sent him to a web site www.apfn.org/apfn/du.htm to see how one can translate his web site into 48 or 50 Languages.
Thank you for allowing me to join the group. My skin Cancer treatment is worth the effort and with help applying drops to hard to reach areas 20-30 times a day TWICE A DAY the scabs are coming off and areas CURED !

Forgot ONE ITEM --- Skin with HAIR should be shaved either with an electric razor or razor if you do not cut the skin before commencing the treatment with solution. Usual dose requires dabbing with applicator 20-30 times TWICE A DAY for 5 days and taking usual showers or baths until the scab forms and falls OFF. Do not PULL on the scabs because they are usually attached to good skin in areas and it will pull off layers of good skin causing pain and bleeding. After the first scab comes off then keep up the teatment ONCE A DAY still applying 20-30 drops until the second scab falls off then the skin should only stain with the solution and it is declared CURED.
Sorry we forgot that small item about hair causing the scab to stay put longer.

Thanks for the Simoncini skin cancer treatment recipe Ralph! Do you know what type of alcohol is recommended?
Personally, I would steer clear of isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and go with Everclear or vodka.
Dr Simoncini's internal cancer treatment methods using sodium bicarbonate are very controversial and I am skeptical that they work.
But I do think skin cancers are often promoted by an underlying candida yeast (fungus) infection and an iodine based therapy may be quite helpful. Please let us know how your treatment works for you.

I first read this forum a couple of months ago.
I have a lesion on the side of my nose and after years of denial I looked at google pictures of BCC and decided, yes, this is what is on my nose.
I figured I would be at the doctors soon but wanted to try some natural cures first.
I tired the baking soda and castor oil for ten days. It hurt a lot and also bled and then I went to Lugol's iodine.
Used the Iodine for three weeks and it did not seem to do much. I then tried it again and put it on twelve times a day for three days.
The iodine forms a thick film on the lesion and today I scraped and picked until it was off and wanted to see what the lesion was doing.
It is better. I am so shocked. I put some ointment on it as it is sore and the skin peeled but will continue with iodine treatment tomorrow. The lesion looks more healed and smaller.
I am in total shock this is working and so very greatful for this forum.
Thanks to all who have shared.
Chuck you are the one who posted and gave enough info that convinced me to try this.
Thank you so much.
I will post again after using the iodine for a bit longer. |

Dr Tullio Simoncini can be reached sending an e-mail to
t.simoncini@alice.it
Assistant Dr. Mario Bellini can be reached by sending an e-mail to

Remember the 7 % formula dabbed on any nodule or location 20-30 times morning then 20-30 times afternoon can be done anywhere. I used HUMCO STRONG 7 % IODINE and if you can get a doctor to write a prescription for the SIMONCINI FORMULA perhaps you need, if elderly, to cut off the ALCOHOL AMOUNT and substitute Distilled Water like I did.
ROME PHONE NUMBER FOR DR. SIMONCINI REMAINS:

0039.335.294480
Remember to call NORMAL EVENING HOURS IN ROME FROM PERHAPS 6 PM UNTIL 9 PM out of courtesy.

I wanted to share some more information about my skin lesion on my nose and also information about myself.
I am 64 years old, healthy and am retired. I have fair skin and was in the sun a lot growing up and sun burned often. Like so many I wanted to have a nice tan like my friends but my skin would not tan like their skin and I burned often and turned red more then a nice tan color. I suspect I am the perfect canidate for skin cancer.
The lesion on my nose looked like the google images of a nodular bcc.
It was white and a waxy pearl color with veins showing. About the size of a dime. It first showed up ten to twelve years ago and I did visit the doctor. I was afraid and the Dr. was aware so he told be not to be so afraid because skin cancer was nothing like real cancer.
He made an appointment for me to see a dermatologist and said I would need to have a biopsy. I am someone who does not enjoy going to the doctor and was so disappointed he made another appt. with another doctor and I did not go to the appt. I convinced myself it was a skin cyst.
The lesion on my nose would not go away. I opened it with a needle three different times over the years. It bled profusely and took forever to heal. The result would be it looked the same no matter what I did to it.
Recently it had taken on the shape of having rolled edges and sunken in the middle.
Today after using the Lugols iodine 5% the rolled edges are gone and most of the skin is looking normal.
I posted in the above post how long I have been treating this lesion and how surprised and amazed I am this Iodine is working to heal my lesion.
I also am using the iodine on some other spots on my skin that I feel could be a problem.
I also started taking a drop of the Iodine orally, today was my first day for taking it orally.
I am going to take it twice a week for a while and see how I feel.
I have done a lot of reading on skin cancer and also iodine and I am convinced this has been successful for me and I just had to share with those that read this forum.
I also wanted to add when applying the iodine my lesion did swell some and turn red but it never had any kind of a discharge. It has hurt a lot during the procedure but after seeing the wonderful results the pain and time has been worth using the iodine. |

Hi Happy,
I'm sure I join many others on this post and say how thrilled I am about your success with iodine! I understand what a joyful emotion it brings to know you won't be disfigured from surgery.
As I encourage in other posts, please continue your treatments for at least 2 weeks after the lesion is completely healed. It should save you from having a re-occurence.
Sincerely,
Chuck
P.S.: Love your moniker "Happy" - that says it all :-) |

Chuck, HELLO
Happy is not even close to how good I feel about my success with using the Lugol's iodine. And you Chuck, are the reason I tried it. I do not have words to express how grateful I am to you for sharing your experience.
I read your posts over and over again before I decided I wanted to give it a try. I read other forums and researched skin cancer.
I have read much good information about Lugol's iodine and I would urge others to read as much as you can. Very informative information on the Internet.
Again Chuck, thank you so very much.
Yes, I am going to keep applying the iodine for the next few weeks.
My edits are because I am not using spell check. I can't seem to catch my mistakes until after I post and then read my reply again. lol |

Hello, friends! Please excuse me for bad English! I hope you will understand me.
I am from Bulgaria and I write you a translator.
I want to thank you for this forum, which greatly helped my mother get well!
A year ago, doctors diagnosed with malignant melanoma of my mother. She had a large dark spot on the face. This stain was injured in the middle. They formed a wound that was great. Then there is formed something like a volcano with a wound on the top.
Doctors from two laboratories have studied biopsy. Proved to be malignant melanoma diagnosis.
Doctors wanted to cut out half the face of my mother.
I found information about the treatment of Dr. Simoncini.
We started treating my mother with Lugol. That lasted about three months.
During this time we read the your advice. They gave us strength us to continue with treatment.
Now my mother was healed and her skin is clear.
We thank you! We wish success to all who are receiving. Do not give up. There cancer treatment.
We thank Dr. Simoncini! God bless you!

Hi Miya,
I wanted to say "thank you" for posting the details about your Mother's success in treating her cancer. What fantastic news and a source of encouragement for those reading it!
Although I successfully treated my own basal cell cancer, it sounds like your Mother's condition was far worse than mine. I cannot imagine how frightening that must have been but is now a source of joy!
Please let your mother know that we rejoice for her and you and share the excitement. God is great and He definitely led you to this website. We all owe Dan, the blog founder and Dr. Simoncini much!!
God Bless You,
Chuck |

Hi, Chuck!
Thanks for your good words!
I forgot to write something more important.
My mother used another therapy, parallel treatment with iodine. This is the treatment of Nikolai Shevchenko. Here is a link to his method: http://cancer-bg.blogspot.com/. This is described by a Bulgarian father. This is Father John Vasilevski. You can use online translator.
Besides, my mother used sometimes hydrogen peroxide. With hydrogen peroxide it flush the wound.
I hope that this will be useful to people who are being treated.
God help you, friends! |

| I read about dr. Simonccini method, I sent an email to ask if iodine is good for melanoma, I read all of your discussions, and I decided to use iodine on my wife neck melanoma. Guess what ? Two weeks and couple days after , the think went down . I continued to apply iodine two weeks more, and now everything is like before. Just a little scar. If anyone need, I can provide pictures with melanoma, before and after. |

Hi Adi!
I am glad that your wife is also cured of melanoma! People should know that this disease is treated. They have to fight the disease and will win!
I informed the woman with BCC about the methods of Dr. Simoncini. Doctors, like when my mother insisted it operates. But she began treatment with iodine and heal.
Dan, thanks for this site!
God help us all!

I bought mine here by the amount of US $13.75
