Cancer Kill or Cure?
During painful tribulation from JUL 2 1998 onwards, Brian constructed many clinical treatment programs but this time for himself personally, as his own doctor. These programs facilitated of reversal of inoperable, terminal cancer.
During two years Brian and his wife Jan lived through the hell of four life expectancy use-by dates. The tumour however RE-GREW on two occasions after chemotherapy and his second gastroscopy. Finally, he entered the experimental chemotherapy drug stage but withdrew after two attempts.
On JUL 2 1998 the Biopsy, Gastroscopy, CT and FBP confirmed an advanced oesophageal adeno-carcinoma. This was too extensive in mass for acute surgery or radiotherapy.
The CAT Scan report stated: “The tumour measured 13 x 8 x 6 cm, deforming his heart and dislodging the trachea. The soft tissue mass was noted in the posterior aspect of the hilar region and the upper part of the heart in the central mediastinum. The oesophageal lumen was deformed and narrowed throughout this mass and the more proximal oesophagus in the upper thorax was considerably and abnormally dilated. Several enlarged lymph nodes were present on the left side of the mass beneath the aortic arch and on its right side. The mass appeared to end just before the region of the oesophago-gastric junction.
A slightly enlarged lymph node on the right side of the aorta just above the cross of the right hemi-diaphragm and a further slightly enlarged lymph node lay just below the cross of the right hemi-diaphragm with several tiny lymph nodes which were not normally seen lower down beneath the cross of the right hemi-diaphragm on the right side of the aorta”.
On SEP 27 2000, his recovery was ratified with corroborated pathology results beyond statistical probability. His General practitioner with three independent specialists reiterated their opinions that no further treatment was necessary. They concluded that, “Whatever was included in the self-help-programs originated as his own doctor, achieved successful facilitation for chemotherapy and radiotherapy”. Historically, no one on record suffering a similarly advanced massive tumour had lived this long or achieved these results post diagnosis. Dr Costello’s comparative N=1 case study is medically documented from the initial diagnosis, to his full recovery.
Ongoing medical and pathology test summaries were documented with 30 weekly CBC/FBP’s, 10 CT’s, 2 Biopsies, 2 Gastroscopies, 4 Hospital Discharge reports, 3 Neurology EMG’s, 8 X-Rays and 7 Medical reports.
In retrospect from JUL 1998 he was given three months to live and prescribed 24hr slow release morphine, which respectfully he declined.
Being an experienced research scientist and educationalist, Brian developed and implemented over twenty-five self-help-treatment programs. Psychophysiological techniques were originated during: Six months Chemotherapy; Daily intravenous 5-FU (Fluorouracil); Twenty weekly catheter PIC line transfusion pump replacements; Three weekly heavy chemotherapy doxirubicin, Cisplatin and Carbiplaten transfusions for 5 months.
On concluding chemotherapy in SEP 1999, Brian was given five weeks daily palliative radiotherapy of magnitude 6M Volts with two extra chemotherapy courses and in excruciating pain flew to New York to attend executive meetings and chair forensic seminars at the Waldorf Astoria.
