How To Determine How Much Cancer You Have
IntroductionWhen you are on an alternative cancer treatment how do you know whether or not it is working? Two ways are having a P.E.T. Scan or a CT Scan. However, these are very expensive and provide radiation you don't need in most cases. A P.E.T. scan is a good choice when you need to know exactly where the cancer is. But if you don't need to know exactly where the cancer is, but you do need to know whether the alternative cancer treatment you are using is effective, the Navarro Urine Test is very helpful. You use this test in the following way. When you begin an alternative cancer treatment protocol you take the Navarro Urine test. Every six weeks thereafter (or whatever interval you use) you take another Navarro Urine Test. If the Navarro score is the same or the Navarro score goes up, then you have more cancer after the first test than you had at the time of the first (i.e. initial) test. This means your alternative cancer treatment may not be working!! On the other hand, if the Navarro score goes down (especially if it goes down by one point or more in the six weeks), then your treatment is likely doing its job. A score of 50 or above, means, statistically speaking, you likely have cancer. When the score is below 50, then statistically speaking, you likely do not have cancer. Thus, for example, if your initial score is 56.2 and your score six weeks later is 54.6, then likely your cancer treatment is working. There are other factors in determining whether your alternative cancer treatment is working (such as energy level), so you may not want to rely totally on the change in the Navarro score, but it is certainly a number you should take seriously.
The Navarro Urine TestOne of the most accurate and simplist methods to measure how much cancer is in your body is a urine test that has a very good reputation for accuracy. The test was developed by a Dr. Navarro in the Philippines. Here are the instructions taken from two of Bill Henderson's articles (links to these two articles are below): Developed in the late 1930's by the renowned oncologist, the late Dr. Manuel D. Navarro [his son, also an M.D., currently does the test], the test detects the presence of HCG in urine. It indicates the presence of cancer cells even before signs or symptoms develop. Dr. Navarro found HCG to be elevated in all types of cancers. The test is based on a theory proposed by Dr. Howard Beard and other researchers who contend that cancer is related to a misplaced trophoblast cell that becomes malignant in a manner similar to pregnancy in that they both secrete HCG. As a consequence, a measure of the amount of HCG found in the blood or urine is also a measure of the degree of malignancy. The higher the number, the greater the severity of the cancer. Urine, as opposed to blood or serum, is the preferred specimen for the test. In 1980, Papapetrou and co-authors reported the correctness of the urine specimen to be used in HCG Immunoassay. In 32 proven cancer cases, the immunoassay test gave 31 positive results using urine while only 12 positive results were reported using blood. HCG has been found to undergo glycosylation in the liver as it travels in the hepatic circulation. Thus, the HCG molecule cannot be detected. The molecule does not undergo this process in the kidney and therefore the molecule remains intact in the urine. The test detects the presence of brain cancer as early as 29 months before symptoms appear; 27 months for fibrosarcoma of the abdomen; 24 months for skin cancer; 12 months for cancer of the bones (metastasis from breast cancer extirpated 2 years earlier). Currently, many cancer patients take advantage of the diagnostic accuracy of this test as an indicator of the effectiveness of their specific mode of therapy. Patients follow a simple direction for preparing a dry extract from the urine sample. The powdery extract is mailed to the Navarro Medical Clinic where the HCG testing is performed. (details below) You send $50 for the test to a U.S. address (address below) and then include a Xerox copy of the money order or cashier's check in the package you send to the Philippines. Send the "Dry Urine Sample" by "Priority Mail International" directly to the Philippines. It costs about $25.00 and takes about 5-6 days to get there. If you include your e-mail address with the sample, you will get the results in about 7 days. Without the email address allow 4-6 weeks for test result delivery if they have to be sent to the USA, Canada or Europe. Fed Ex costs over $47 and regular mail takes forever. Here is information about the clinic:
Navarro Medical Clinic Directions for Urine Sample Preparation (Note: "cc" and "ml" are the same measurement) (1) From an early morning urine, take 50 cc (1.7 oz.) and add 200 cc (7 oz.) of 100% acetone (can be purchased from Wal Mart, a hardware store or pharmacy, but do NOT use fingernail polish remover) and 5 cc (.2 oz) of alcohol, either rubbing [alcohol] or ethyl [alcohol]. Stir and mix well. Note that you will need the ability to meaure 5 ml, 50 ml and 200 ml, and something to accumulate the items. (2) Let it stand in the refrigerator for 2 hours until sediment is formed. Throw off about half of the urine-acetone mixture without losing any sediment. Filter the remainder through a coffee filter or laboratory filter paper. (3) When filtration is over, dry the filter with its sediment. Fold and wrap in aluminum foil. Send by FedEx (First Class mail takes from 5 weeks to forever; Global Priority Mail takes 10-12 days) to the Navarro Medical Clinic (address listed above) including a Xerox copy of the money order or cashier's check with the patient's name, address, sex, age and a brief clinical history and/or diagnosis. Also, be SURE to include your e-mail address. This will speed up your receipt of the results by at least 4-6 weeks. (4) PRECAUTION: No sexual contact for 12 days for female patients before collecting the urine sample. For males, no sexual contact for 18-24 hours before collecting the urine sample. DO NOT SEND URINE IF THE PATIENT IS PREGNANT. Send the $50 (money order or cashier's check) to:

Here are links to the two Bill Henderson articles about the Navarro Urine Cancer Test (they are near the top):
A Different HCG TestThis is a second option to use for determining how much cancer you have. The score of the Navarro Urine Test and the score of this test cannot be compared!!!
Dr. Emil K. Schandl in Florida has developed a panel of 7 blood tests, including the HCG test (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin), which he calls his "Cancer Profile." The panel of blood tests is said to have about a 93% accuracy in stating whether a person has cancer or not, even very early, and costs about $300 to get all 7 tests.
