For the new year, I made myself a present - a quadrocopter with a video camera. Well, I think: it's time to test the device in action, to take pictures of the beautiful Istra forest, where the oncological hospital No. 62 is located.
The adventure began as soon as a local approached me. The conversation took place like this:
What are you doing?
- Why, I'm taking pictures of your beauty. What places!
- Why shoot it, the forest is the same everywhere. You better take off our rich man's house.
- This is what?
- Duc of the hospital director, there are no other rich people here.
Even then, I could not have imagined that the story would become a post about how a unique hospital actually became the domain of a single chief physician. It was not possible to get close to the house, two very large shepherd dogs barked at me. Well, okay, I'm not a real scout, I decided not to risk it. But they managed to shoot the active deforestation, which is being carried out according to the documents on the fence by a certain "Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Oncology" (OPRO). The main activity of the company (registered at the Oncological Hospital No. 62) is logging! Agree a little strange ...
Please note: the red line on the map indicates a section of the forest that has already begun to be cut down for a new cottage village.
According to local residents, in order to obtain permission for felling, someone previously launched a bark beetle into the forest. I think it's not difficult to guess who did it ...
What can I say, friends? I here googled on the Internet and it turned out that Anatoly Nakhimovich Makhson and his close relatives since the 90s have perceived the City Cancer Hospital No. 62 as their fiefdom.
I will continue the "investigation": where is Anatoly Nakhimovich and his beloved wife registered and living? Any site with databases of Muscovites will give the answer. For example, this one http://nomerorg.com/moskva/
If you drive in Makhson Anatoly (you can try it yourself), we will see that a person with such initials is registered in an apartment in the village of Istra and in a cottage in the village of Stepanovskoye (next to the territory of hospital No. 62). Now let's see where Anatoly Nakhimovich's wife officially lives?
The address is even more interesting: she lives in the "village of Gorbolnitsa No. 62". Just a song! Everything around is collective farm, everything around is mine)
What is remarkable about the territory of Hospital No. 62, the reader will ask me, why live there? I will answer with pleasure!
The oncological hospital is located on the territory of an old noble estate, rebuilt in the 17th century and belonging to the Dolgoruky family. Mahson himself, in his interviews, actively touted the environmental benefits of her location: “In recent years, the unique oncological hospital has begun to look more like a sanatorium. This is a whole architectural ensemble that combines traditional classical style and modern high-tech. I never tire of admiring the forest park and the healing air on the territory ”.
In general, in almost every article about Mahson, one way or another, one can trace his passion "for the unique architectural ensemble of the 17th century."
"Almost all of Anatoly Nakhimovich's childhood is associated with the Moscow hospital 62, on the territory of which his family settled" - from here http://oncodome.narod.ru/Makhson/Makhson_2009.htm
And here Makhson himself speaks very well and vividly about family ties: “And we encourage family ties. My parents worked here. My wife Valyusha works here - she is in charge of computed tomography. Yes, Misha is the son of my own sister, but he is a very good surgeon and computer expert. My deputy, a unique oncological surgeon, Professor Nikolai Pavlovich Zabazny, has a daughter, son-in-law, and nephew working in the hospital. Is it bad?"
Bad, Anatoly Nakhimovich, very bad, especially when all these family ties grow into a clan!
It turns out, somehow, residential cottages appeared on the territory of the hospital, which, perhaps, also became the property of "daughters, sons-in-law, nephews." They are marked on the map with red rectangles.
Now the entire hospital complex is a whole sanatorium-resort town with its own boiler room, treatment facilities, three apartment buildings, where people close to the hospital administration live ... Almost communism reigns here - they pay for electricity at the rates of the medical institution. A sophisticated, expensive and modern infrastructure complex surrounded by a beautiful forest. For which ordinary Muscovites paid (and continue to pay)! How can you not think of yourself as the King of the Hill?
What surprises me is that everyone knows about everything, but the chief physician of the City Hospital 62 refuses to leave his post and writes denunciations against the leadership of the Moscow Healthcare Department to the FSB and the Investigative Committee. Agree, the situation is not ordinary!
P.S. When this story just began, I had no idea what could be done to respond to Machson's defenders, grateful patients, etc., who want him to run the hospital for life, and then pass on the reins to inheritance.
I suggest at least someone to ask about these miracles in and around the hospital and answer a number of questions:
1. Who and on what basis lives on the territory in their own houses?
2. Who pays for utilities and at what rates?
3. What did Mahson officially declare from his income as the head of a large institution?
4. Why there is no publicly available information on the procurement activities of the hospital. From whom does the hospital buy expensive medicines and other materials?
5. Or maybe Mahson is just a puppet in someone's big game? And with his hands a larger predatory fish "wages a fair fight"?
By the way, throw insights into the comments! Although I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I think pharma can be involved here, and even big politics!
Oncologist Anatoly Nakhimovich Makhson does not need a special introduction: Professor, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Honored Doctor of the Russian Federation, a world-renowned expert in the field of organ-preserving surgery, behind whom - a unique experience in clinical oncology and hundreds of successful operations. The former chief physician of the Moscow Oncological Hospital No. 62 was forced to resign after a loud conflict with the Moscow health department.
Today Anatoly Nakhimovich is again busy with the creation of a full cycle oncological direction - from early prevention to treatment, chemotherapy and rehabilitation. All those in need, including elderly and senile patients suffering from severe concomitant diseases, are admitted to Medsi oncocluster under the leadership of Makhson for treatment. Treatment is possible both under high-tech assistance programs and under the compulsory health insurance policy.
"SP": - Anatoly Nakhimovich, many people are still so afraid of the diagnosis "cancer" that they prefer to postpone the visit to the doctor until the last, thereby losing precious time. And the statistics do not add optimism ...
- Statistics are also different. On the one hand, oncology in a number of countries of the world, including Russia, is indeed the leading cause of death, second only to cardiovascular diseases. At the same time, I never tire of repeating: the opinion that any malignant tumor is a sentence is hopelessly outdated! Thanks to the conquests of medicine in Russia, for example, already about 53% of cancer patients who fell ill for the first time are successfully cured. And in the early stages, up to 98% of malignant tumors can be cured! With the help of non-toxic therapy, small non-healing surgeries.
It is known that the main problem of malignant tumors is that they do not manifest themselves in the early stages. Therefore, all over the world, special preventive examination programs are being actively implemented - cancer screenings... With the help of such programs, we can hope to identify up to 90% of pre-existing malignant tumors.
"SP": - At what age does it make sense to undergo cancer screening?
- As a rule - after 40 years, since tumors are more common in this age category. Female cancer screening involves examining the breast, female genital area, lungs, stomach, colon, and kidneys. In men, we conduct an examination for tumors of the lungs, stomach and colon, urological area - prostate, kidney and bladder, male genital area.
Screening includes laboratory blood tests - general and biochemical, computed spiral tomography (this is the "gold standard" for detecting lung tumors), gastroscopy, colonoscopy, ultrasound examination of the liver, kidneys, and retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Plus for men - ultrasound of the prostate gland, and for women - ultrasound and mammography of the mammary gland, consultation with a gynecologist, liquid cytology of cervical scraping, ultrasound of the uterus and ovaries.
The examination ends with a consultation with an oncologist, who examines the patient's skin to exclude skin tumors and melanoma and analyzes the data obtained during previous examinations.
"SP": - How long may require such a survey?
- Just one day! It is performed on an outpatient basis. If a tumor is detected, patients can undergo treatment in our clinical hospitals, and in many cases - under the CHI program.
I repeat: in case of early detection of tumors, for example, stomach, intestines, other localizations, modern high-tech equipment allows for a sparing endoscopic operation (that is, through punctures, without large incisions and surgical wounds - ed.), and full recovery up to 90-98% of such patients is a reality.
By the way
The powerful preventative properties of plants and foods in the fight against cancer are well known. Some of them have already been proven by the world official medicine. For example, it is recommended to regularly consume the following foods:
- Seaweed and seaweed - not least due to their high iodine content. And also all varieties of ordinary cabbage, especially cauliflower.
- Broths - for example, from burdock, young birch leaves. Also, don't forget about dogwood, elderberry and chaga.
- The kernels of apricot kernels contain a rare vitamin B17, which has a powerful anti-cancer effect. You can eat no more than ten nucleoli per day.
ethnoscience recommends keeping oil, sunflower or olive oil in your mouth in the morning to cleanse your mouth of potentially harmful bacteria. You cannot swallow the oil, after 15 minutes you must spit it out. If the oil turns white, you did everything right.
A sufficient amount of calcium and magnesium in the body creates the necessary alkaline environment in which dangerous cells die, and new ones are not formed. One way to replenish calcium is through various green smoothies. After all, real prevention can be not only useful, but also very tasty. Be healthy!
Until recently, Anatoly Makhson was not a very media figure. Well, maybe he appeared in the yellow press a couple of times when he argued that Zhanna Friske would have been cured better in Russia than in the West, and he complained that healthy young women are hard to convince that they, like Angelina Jolie, need to remove both breasts. ... But serious publications recalled one of the best oncologists in the country only when it was necessary to take a duty interview for February 4, the International Day against Cancer.

Nevertheless, the authorities, especially in Moscow, despite the now popular assertions that, they say, Makhson had an uncomfortable character, always loved him. When in 1990 the forty-year-old Makhson, who had been heading the department at the 62nd Oncological Hospital for only a year, with the support of the team headed the crumbling medical facility, Yuri Luzhkov came to his aid. Then the main building was completely renovated, the construction of an extension to the radiological building was completed, by 2002 a new surgical building, equipped with the latest technology, was commissioned.
The new government loved Mahson even more than before. Equipment, money, preferences. Makhson was made the chief oncologist in Moscow, and he, with the full support of the Moscow government, began a drastic reorganization of the capital's oncological service. Optimization of Moscow oncology according to Makhson ended with the fact that he cut one of the city dispensaries to his hospital and achieved special rules for himself. And before retirement, the respected oncologist again decided to thank the capital's government in his own style.
Moscow officials still cannot understand what made the respected doctor become the hero of a loud scandal and attack the mayor's office last fall with loud revelations. Some say that the matter is in the check, which in the spring of last year discovered in the 62nd hospital then still minor violations. Others claim that Mahson wanted to prevent optimization and almost the closure of the hospital, which no one was going to close.
Makhson himself, in the midst of the scandal, suddenly surprised everyone with a statement that he started a fuss only because the capital authorities allegedly refused to appoint the chief physician to his vacancy, Dmitry Kanner, the head of the department of the same hospital. Believe it is hard: Kanner is now the hospital and is in charge. It is also hard to believe that Anatoly Makhson suddenly decided to join the fight against corruption.
In the course of the scandal he started due to the uncompetitive purchases of drugs for cancer patients by the Moscow government, it turned out that the 62nd hospital under the leadership of Makhson, while saving on some drugs, significantly overpayed for others, and often specially creating unique conditions for participation in tenders for certain suppliers cutting off their competitors.
"As an inheritance from his parents, Anatoly Makhson received hard work, tolerance and compassion for the sick," says one of the doctor's complementary biographies. Forgot to add: "and the 62nd hospital." In the same biography, it is noted that Anatoly Makhson spent his childhood on the territory of the hospital, only that his dad held a leadership position in the 62nd hospital, and the family lived here in a separate cottage. Now Anatoly Makhson himself lives in it with his wife and daughter.
It is no coincidence that some note that over the years, the hereditary doctor Makhson began to treat the hospital as a hereditary allotment, especially since it was located in a noble estate of the 17th century. And like a good estate, the hospital brings a good income to the clan of doctors.
A striking example is a certain "Society for Plastic and Reconstructive Oncology", where the doctor is the president, is actively deforestation in the vicinity of the hospital for cottage development. And the developer of the cottage settlements growing around the hospital is NP Stepanovskoye LLC. By coincidence, NP Stepanovskoye LLC is a co-founder of NIL PME CJSC, another co-founder is a certain Valentina Iosifovna Makhson, the full namesake of the head of the computer tomography of the 62nd hospital and the spouse of its head physician. The general director of the construction company is a certain Nikolai Petrovich Kozin, while the Research Laboratory of Freshwater and Marine Ecosystems CJSC is headed by his namesake Elena Nikolayevna Kozina.
There was a time when Anatoly Makhson created and headed the "Doctor" consumer garage-operating cooperative. He was engaged in agriculture, having created LLC "Agrariy" in the capital, and in financial services,
However, Makhson did not forget his main specialty either. Therefore, in addition to the existing public organizations and charitable foundations established and headed by them, he was at one time the founder of Onco-Test LLC, which renders services in the same area as the hospital subordinate to Makhson. and.
But it seems that the main business of the former head physician of the 62nd hospital was still in another area. Former business partner of Makhson in the ONKO-test company, Maria Glebova is now the general director and co-owner of the Promedica company. In 2016, this company entered into six contracts with Mahson for the supply of medical equipment, instruments and consumables to Hospital No. 62. Makhson's partner in Agrariy LLC, Valery Glavatsky, is also one of the owners of Truvr Private Security Company, which protects the hospital's territory. And if in 2012 security services cost the hospital 20.5 million rubles, then a year later they went up four times - up to 98.4 million rubles In 2016, the contract for 40.7 million rubles was concluded immediately after the announcement of Makhson's impending resignation.But Glavatsky is also a co-founder of CJSC ROS MEDKOMPLEKT, which, if not difficult guess is, is supplying medical equipment.
It is worth mentioning another scandalous story with the purchases of Mahson for the 62nd hospital, which turned out to be the only one in the capital that purchased the scandalous drug "Bayodaim" from the Swiss company Roche. The monopoly seller of the drug in Russia is the R-Pharm company. The peculiarity of "Beiodine" is that it consists of two combinations, of which, as a check carried out in the hospital found out, only one was used in the treatment of patients - trastuzumab. Second, "pertuzumab was often not used and disappeared without a trace." The first question, why having a cheaper domestic drug on the market, which was purchased by all the capital's hospitals, Makhson chose an expensive Swiss one, is likely to be answered by investigators.
It is noteworthy that, despite all the scandals and hysterics of the now ex-head of the 62nd hospital, the capital authorities, recognizing Mahson's experience and respecting him as a doctor, invited him to stay here as president. At first, he even began to set conditions that, they say, if the team asks, then so be it I will stay and help the new head physician. Probably, he remembered the 90th year, when the team presented him with a hospital on a silver platter, electing him the head physician. But the team did not ask. After that, the offended Makhson said that he was not going to return to the hospital in any capacity and immediately went to court to demand reinstatement in the post of chief doctor. He lost the trial, so he will not return to the 62nd hospital. But Anatoly Makhson is not going to a well-deserved rest either. They say that now he will work for the Medsi company from the AFK Sistema holding, where millionaire Vladimir Yevtushenkov gathers retired academicians and other medical stars.
Probably, the businessman hopes that the luminaries of medicine will finally pull out his medical business plunging into an abyss of losses: if in 2014 the company's revenue was estimated at 8.3 billion rubles, and the loss was 400 million rubles, then in 2015 these figures were 6.8 billion and 1.2 billion rubles, respectively. But what Mahson will chop up here is anyone's guess.
Visiting Komsomolskaya Pravda is the chief oncologist of Moscow, the head physician of the famous 62nd cancer hospital, Doctor of Medical Sciences Anatoly Makhson [video]
Most people on the planet die from cardiovascular disease. There are others dangerous diseases... But only a kind of fate hangs over cancer, fatality: they say, if you get sick, this is the end. You are not a tenant!
Makhson: - Such a widespread opinion is a mistake. Indeed, at present, mortality from malignant tumors is in second place. If we turn to statistics, a little more than half a million people in Russia get cancer every year, and about 290 thousand die from malignant tumors every year. This is ten times more than, say, death from car injuries. But now, thanks to advances in medicine, cancer is no longer a fatal disease. Much of the healing depends on the stage of the disease. Almost any tumor, if detected on early stagethen 90-91, up to 98% we can cure.
Take breast cancer. When the tumor is less than a centimeter, we can cure up to 98%. If the second stage, it will be 70%, maybe a little more. The third is good if 50%. But there are already completely different costs and treatment time. And the fourth - 18% healing. Therefore, the main thing is to detect cancer in the early stages. And it only depends on the people.
After 45 years, every two years in Moscow, every woman can have a mammogram, which allows detecting a tumor at an early stage. Revealed - a fairly small operation, and 91% recovered, added drug treatment, and there we can cure up to 95-98%. True, with pancreatic cancer, the results are worse, but on the other hand, it is much less common.
What is the fatality problem? If a person dies of cancer, then everyone knows the cause.
- The same media will add - "died of an incurable disease."
But practically nobody knows those whom we have cured of cancer. Because a person who has fallen ill with a malignant tumor does not cover it. What's going on abroad? Even famous people, politicians, artists admit: yes, I had cancer, I was treated. And when others see that he lives, has been actively working for 5-10 years, the atmosphere is completely different.
- De Niro underwent surgery on the prostate, Bush Jr. had a tumor on his face removed.
I was in Japan, where a society was created for the early detection of cancer. The doctor says: 10 years ago I was diagnosed with a stomach tumor, it was removed, I am working. And nobody hides it there. Therefore, there is no such fatality as ours.
- The writer Daria Dontsova - Your patient, Anatoly Nakhimovich?
Our. She began to receive treatment in 89. At that time I was still in charge of the department in the 62nd hospital. She lay in our department. 23 years have passed!
And Dontsova did not hide that she had undergone cancer. As well as Kobzon. In the spring of 2004, the singer confessed to Komsomolskaya Pravda: "The tumor was malignant, but now I'm healthy!" We then put this phrase on the cover .. In an interview, Joseph Davydovich told me in detail about his illness, how he fought it.
A lot of those! There is a patient whom my father operated on in 1976. He had a sarcoma of the femur. The patient's leg was saved, he can walk. He has been living in Greece for a long time, but from time to time he comes to see us and get checked. Unfortunately, few people know about such healed centenarians. Hence, I repeat, the fatality of the diagnosis is cancer.
- So it sounds like a sentence.
The second common mistake among the people: doctors found a tumor in a patient, offer treatment, but he refuses. Prefers to visit a healer. It takes a year and a half. The tumor develops up to stage 4. He goes back to the doctor. But often medicine in such advanced cases is already powerless.
This is the tragedy of the popular artist Yan Arlazorov. I was afraid to go to the doctor categorically, preferred a healer, fasting. Although the same Kobzon persuaded to turn to official medicine. When Arlazorov made up his mind, it was too late.
And I can give many such sad examples. Do you understand what's the matter? You can do nothing with a malignant tumor and live for 2-3 years. This is what healers use. They say to relatives - "But I kept the patient for 1.5 years!" In fact, they just move the first stage into the third or fourth. By depriving the patient of a chance for salvation. How it happened with Yan Arlazorov. And if a person came to the hospital from the very beginning, then a simple treatment is enough for him to recover and be healthy later.
- So you have to go to the doctor!
We have to go and do medical examinations. And if you have a tumor, no need to rely on healers. I have not seen a single real healer who would help our patients. Although I do not deny that they can be. But, unfortunately, the majority are charlatans who cut a lot of money in distress.
- You recently became the main oncologist of the capital ...
Half year ago.
And a sharp reorganization of the Moscow oncological service has already begun. There are rumors, even panic. What's really going on?
In the USSR, back in 1946, the most effective system for the treatment and monitoring of oncological diseases was created. Dispensary. When a patient is examined and treated in a hospital in one institution. A tumor was revealed, then healed. If necessary, he continues outpatient treatment at the same dispensary. Problems appear - he is admitted to the hospital. And in Russia this system operates everywhere except Moscow. And why? Because there is no dispensary that could provide treatment in a metropolis with 12 million inhabitants. Our specialized hospital No. 62, established in 1959, cannot accept everyone either. Therefore, such an insane system has developed: 21 oncology departments in the capital's polyclinics, where there is no modern equipment and treatment options. The first stage of the system's reorganization is the connection of the 2nd dispensary with the 62nd hospital. This is almost 2 million inhabitants, 2 districts - North and North-West. Now this dispensary has become a polyclinic department of the 62nd hospital. Understand that you cannot make a qualified institution out of a dispensary, where there is practically nothing modern. There is no CT scanner, normal X-ray, equipment, etc.
And the patients attached here are forced to look for where in Moscow to do the same computed tomography and other analyzes.
No electronic medical history! So we came and were faced with the fact that we cannot get accurate data on how many patients are receiving chemotherapy, with what stages, nothing is clear. At the same time, the dispensary is being reorganized and equipped. Now it is the outpatient department of the 62nd hospital. In March-April, a computed tomograph, modern ultrasound devices should be installed there, we will make day hospitals for urology, chemotherapy, and a hospital for head-neck diseases. Much more is planned. I think that by the end of the year we will deal with it. As a result, what should happen? The patient comes here, is fully examined here in 7-10 days. When it becomes clear how to treat him, the patient is automatically put on the queue at the 62nd clinic. He came, we treat him, operate, do the necessary procedures. We prescribe treatment, medications in the clinic (the former 2nd dispensary). Dispensary observation is underway there. Some problems have arisen - he has to come to the 62nd hospital. And now there is a person who is responsible for examination, dispensary observation and treatment of patients in at least two districts of Moscow. It has almost 2 million inhabitants. This is the chief doctor of the 62nd hospital.
- So you, Dr. Mahson?
Yes. We will create the same subdivisions in all other districts of the capital. They will be equipped with one type.
- And the same doctor Mahson will supervise everything, already as the chief oncologist of the capital?
Quite right. This was the initiative of the new head of the Moscow Department of Health, Leonid Mikhailovich Pechatnikov. He correctly said that a polyclinic cannot exist separately from a hospital, they must be united. Because one goal is to diagnose, cure, then treat outpatiently. And as a result, there should be a single electronic database and register. And all these databases must transfer data to this register in a uniform manner. Then we will know how many patients we have, what stages they have, what medicines are needed. It will be possible to plan normally the procurement of medicines for cancer patients in Moscow.
- Now the problem of drugs is very acute!
Let's try to solve it. The main thing is to get all the necessary help for a cancer patient in one place! My task, I think, as the chief oncologist, is to make sure that in each district of the capital the oncology center is the same in terms of equipment, qualifications of doctors and staff, and attitude towards patients. Because now many people want to go to 62nd. But we cannot take all of Moscow! This task is much more difficult. Because many institutions are in serious condition, unlike us. But now a lot of money has been allocated, the leadership of the department, one might say, has turned its face to oncology. I do not promise that it will be in a year, but I think that in 2-3 years we must cope in order to equalize the level of oncological care in Moscow, equip everyone equally.
- Yes, you are facing difficult tasks.
Not easy. But opportunities have appeared. I came to the 62nd oncological hospital in 72, and since 90 I have been the chief physician here. And such financial investments, such opportunities for equipping, for repairs for all these 40 years have not been. I will not say that there are no problems, but there have never been such opportunities for raising the city's oncological service. Thanks, naturally, to the new mayor, the new head of the department, everything changed. For example, we had a problem with the radiological service. I've been writing for years that we need to change the technique. This year we have received three linear accelerators, three gamma devices, and many other modern equipment. These are all expensive equipment. And this year the entire radiological service of the city will be re-equipped. This has not been done for many years. We still have devices from 1990, 89. They do not serve as much, but we work on such a technique. Now everything will change. So we are optimistic about the future of Moscow oncology.
Anatoly Nakhimovich, the press usually recalls oncologists by February 4, International Cancer Day. And let's conduct a "Direct Line" with the readers of "Komsomolskaya Pravda", our radio listeners, TV viewers. You see, in Komsomolskaya Pravda our opportunities are also expanding! Surely there will be many questions for you. And not only from Muscovites.
I'm ready. It is very important - with the help of "Komsomolskaya Pravda" to inform people that, firstly, cancer is not hopeless, secondly, it is very important to come to the doctor on time and, thirdly, there is no need to go to the healers. Because you're wasting money and wasting time. Let's talk specifically about the modernization of the oncological service in Moscow.
Chief oncologist of Moscow: Cancer is no longer a fatal disease
This is such a long title, and I am writing about this for two reasons. Firstly, I fulfill the request of the restaurateur himself to distribute this interview, and secondly, because I am not able to directly comment on or ask the doctor questions through the restaurateur's website, since he, like Onkobudni, blocked this option for me, he is forced to do it here.
The interview of this, as far as I can judge from the publications available to me, a very competent and honest specialist in the field of orthodox oncology, Professor Anatoly Nakhimovich Makhson, can be roughly divided into two parts. https://stalic.livejournal.com/864884.html
In the first part, the doctor, in fact, tells what, in his opinion, should be done after hearing the diagnosis - cancer. And I leave this part without any special comments, since it never really interested me.
Why such indifference, with such and such a diagnosis? I usually try to refrain from making any remarks about the orthodox triad: surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
But if there is such a reason, let me say a few words why I still don't try these therapies on myself.
Those methods of chemotherapy, for example, which are used in modern clinical practice, are, figuratively speaking, shooting at squares, when together with the enemy - cancer cells, innocent victims - healthy cells die, and this therapy itself reminds me of an attempt to destroy a tank by shooting at it the most protected place is the frontal armor. Meanwhile, the tank, like cancer cells, has many less protected and vulnerable spots. We will return to this, if I may, a little later.
And now I would like to discuss the second part of the interview, in which our restaurateur asks the doctor several questions. The restaurateur Stalik is a rather famous and successful person in whose family a misfortune happened. His daughter had to face cancer. He wrote several times about this epic and his efforts aimed at preserving the 62nd hospital, which was headed by Dr. Anatoly Makhson, and which, unfortunately, did not bring results (the doctors were fired, the corrupt system turned out to be stronger than the incorruptible doctor and his defenders). Learn
These posts drew a lot of responses, and I, too, driven by good intentions, advised him to rely not only on orthodox medicine, but also to try to analyze possible reasons unfortunate events that happened to his family.
This comment, however, was deleted, and further access to the body of his journal was blocked for me.
That is, in this case, our restaurateur turned out to be holier than the Pope. He is all in orthodox medicine, and his position as a privileged client (not like the others, on a short leg with the head physician himself) should not fall the slightest shadow, even when it comes to comments that do not fit into the framework of this orthodox medicine.
All the more interesting for me were his questions, which, almost according to Freud, highlighted the restaurateur's latent fears for a loved one. You can understand. It seems that everything is under control, everything has been paid for, but there is probably no calmness and confidence in the future.
A worm of doubt gnaws at him, and he, looking for confirmation that everything is done correctly and in the only possible way, asks about alternative medicine.
And the professor did not disappoint. No, he says, nonsense, all these shark cartilage, vodka with vegetable oil, none of this works. Who would doubt that! But, excuse me, dear professor, the question was about alternative medicine, and not about alternative charlatans, about which you so correctly and colorfully told.
I somehow find it hard to believe that a specialist of this level and qualifications does not know about the whole area in oncology, in which thousands of scientists are involved, published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, the subject of which is precisely the alternative methods of influencing the cancer process.
And I am absolutely convinced that he cannot be unaware of hundreds of cases of clinical trials on real patients that have been, are being carried out and will be carried out, often under the auspices of the state, in which not chemical preparations, but natural compounds acted as anti-cancer agents: turmeric, lycopene, resveratrol, polyphenols in green tea, melatonin, etc.
Why, professor, you do not talk about this, but tell us about dubious personalities who, for three kopecks, will finish to the grave and their mother.
The question is rhetorical, since the answer to it is quite clear, not the binomial of Newton. Of course, why bother your friend with unnecessary information, but these are particulars. Most importantly, being the flesh of the system, he follows its rules, just like a wolf that cannot step over the flags. And the space for maneuver is shrinking and we have to reluctantly mention immune therapy, killer cells, on which cancer cells manage to hang stopper caps to neutralize them, and the development of new drugs that unblock these stoppers, allowing killer cells to destroy tumor.
Such work has been underway for a long time. Three years ago I posted a short post about this here. ... Why short? Because while it is such a crane, which is not something that you cannot reach, it is difficult to see it. Very, very expensive, and there are pitfalls.
But again, although this therapy is not included in the triad, but it is approved by the FDA, it seems that it is already possible to talk about it, but what is impossible to talk about, and he does not talk about it - about the incomparably more accessible and certainly no less effective GcMAF immunotherapy.
How can you say that, because the basis of this therapy is the GcMAF-activator of macrophages, which our body produces itself, and which, horror, cannot be patented.
It is also impossible to patent proteolytic enzymes or artemisinin, or the same abscisic, or alpha-lipoic acid, but do they become less effective tools of anti-cancer therapy? Not at all, these are the very tools that act on the most vulnerable, Achilles' sites of cancer cells.
They become less effective because they are not patentable just because they have no commercial prospects. Who will invest a lot of money in something that cannot be earned. Therefore, while everything is moving rather slowly, research and testing are going on, but it is difficult to expect quick results without serious investments.
Slightly reassured about the correctness of the choice of the classical triad, the restaurateur proceeds to the next one, which even more worries him, as it seemed to me, judging by the intense expectation of an answer, the question - what the day ahead is preparing for us, is there a guarantee that this will not happen to me again?
The doctor is optimistic. With the right strategy, the chances of a return of the disease are very small. And even announces specific numbers. If after five years there was no relapse, then according to statistics, there is nothing to talk about - only two percent.
True, I have come across completely different, not so rosy data more than once, but the point is not even in numbers, but in the approach to understanding the problem.
I myself am deprived of the opportunity to take advantage of Mr. Khankhisheev's invitation and ask the esteemed doctor a few questions through his website, but you can ask them on your own behalf.
What would I like to ask him about? Although the causes of cancer are huge, it is well known, and it is simply proven that, for example, an excess of heavy metals, which exceeds the body's ability to neutralize them, leads to cell degeneration and the formation of a malignant tumor. Or another example - here in Quebec there is such a phenomenon as the radioactive gas radon coming out of the earth. Settled in such a house - and the likelihood of getting lung cancer increases significantly.
Ask a respected doctor, is it possible to cure cancer while maintaining the factors that caused it?
I’ll be responsible for him - it’s impossible. This is one of the main reasons, somehow uniting traditional and alternative methods, responsible for the still modest success in the fight against cancer.
There are a great many factors that cause cancer, and that would be half the trouble, the real trouble is that most often it is impossible to isolate what exactly was the "trigger" that needs to be eliminated.
There is little that can be done with this, but here is what can be done, and what I would like to hear from a well-known and respected specialist, addressing a wide audience, is how you can eliminate the prevailing factors responsible for the surge in cancer.
I will name only those that no longer need any proof. Everything has already been proven. In addition to heavy metals, this is a deficiency of key vitamins and minerals: vitamin D, sulfur, selenium, iodine, magnesium, a sharp skew in the Omega 3/6 ratio, and constant stress. This is a drop in the ocean, there are many other factors. But this is a weighty drop, this drop accounts for, if not the majority, then a very large share of what provokes cancer, and this is something that is not difficult to influence, but you need to know about it, and you need to talk about it.
