My friend is 44 years old with metastatic breast cancer. I’m her herbalist and have been supporting her conventional treatments to help mitigate side effects and toxicity from the chemotherapy and other drugs. SHe had been doing well on treatment from APril 2020 to Aprol 2021. Regression and then stable disease. On March 30th, 11 days after the Moderna vaccine, she devoloped neurological symptoms on one side of her face. I had hoped it was bells palsy resulting from vaccination given the alternatives. On April 15th, 15 days post 2nd vaccination, she had a brain MRI which revealed multiple brain metastasis. Her brain MRI three months earlier was all clear.
Now-given that her cancer could progress at any time-I just assumed this was the natural course for her based on treatment resistance. However I stumbled across a study that documented two cases of brain metastasis post vaccination in Melanoma and breast cancer. I reach out to one of her doctors and expressed concern about a correlation. He agresd and asked ME to post it on VAERS-I assume he is very busy. I will be doing that soon. Here is the study and an excerpt
“Although the precise mechanism of post-vaccination inflammation is unknown, it is known that spike proteins can initiate inflammatory cascades and cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in COVID-19 infections [10,11]. It is possible that encoded spike proteins post-vaccination therefore cross the BBB and enhance inflammatory responses to nascent pathology within the brain following vaccine administration. We believe that an augmented inflammatory response following vaccination called attention to these neuro-oncologic diseases by exacerbating peritumoral edema and worsening clinical symptoms. “
As I understand, there was no clinical trial data done on cancer patients? I’m very disturbed by this possibility….that this progression could have been vaccine induced. And I believe my friend is too. I think it’s safe to say she won’t be getting a booster. I think I’ve convinced her on trying prophylactic Ivermectin in future. However, she just tested positive for COvid 11 days ago and seems to be up and down with symptoms. She’s getting some Ivermectin from a family friend tomorrow. It’s hard to know at this point if symptoms are from the cancer or Covid. But after natural infection-I understand that immunity has been shown to last for up to 11 months thus far. I’m not sure if this is a safe assumption with her-given she has suppressed immune/bone marrow markers right now. She did develop a high fever if that is any indicator of immune recognition. I guess I’m not sure if the Ivermectin prophylactically in future(after acute treatment) is warranted.
Just wanted to share incase it’s useful to anyone.
Thanks
Rachel
