I had to dig to find this information...I can tell you in all my years of
Nursing I can only recall one person being tested for copper so it must be
very rare disorder.

Perhaps multiple brain injuries?

If so, here, nothing can be done unless the person seeks help
(neurology? neurosurgery?), gets arrested for breaking the law and (in
theory) assessed, or someone, who cares, gets them declared "a danger to
themselves or to the public".

J, madiba is way off base, & what you've just written is very cruel &
insulting.

You've skipped over the important points of what I've written, & jumped
right to:  "Let's just negative-label Susan, call her a liar, & harm her
all we can too."

Can't you see how wrong this is?

I've seen neurologists.  Most refuse to work, refuse to help injured
people.  One assaulted me.  This did Nothing good, but I have kept
looking for a good Neurologist.  Do you know of one in Texas?

I consulted a neurosurgeon about the injuries.  He said that on the
MRIs, my brain looked very healthy, & that there was nothing he could do
to help with the injuries.

J, I hope that when you're deliberately & severely injured, have
third-stage cancer, are living in horrible conditions, & have no
enforceable legal rights or protection, ... that no one acts this
b*tt-ugly ignorant & arrogant, determinedly-dumb, cold & cruel to you.

Then they are (in theory) assessed in a psychiatric ward in hospital
(for organic and psychiatric/psychological).

I suppose if she still has cancer, she could be declared "a danger to
herself".

Yes, you've used up your politeness points too so now you'll have to go
back to those horrid texan MDs (some of the best oncologists in the
country BTW) for advice.

not realized the above or gave up out of frustration, because it's not
their specialty, because of her multiple problems and because of her
bad-mouthing).

I got a psychiatric evaluation in April 1998, which said I have no
mental illness, no need for drugs, ... which I already knew.

While I have been in severe abuse, & sought help & counselling for that,
.. I've never had a mental illness.  

J, what makes you so incapable of facing or dealing with this, with
reality & the truth?  What is making you act so flighty & flippant?  So
off-base, off-center?  What's wrong with you?

When you (or anyone else) acts ugly to me on newsgroups, I do have the
right to confront you & ask why. To tell you "you're full of it", & warn
you to back off.

When I'm asking the doctors for help, I'm very nice & polite to them,
very respectful, logical & practical.  However, weeks or months later,
when I recover some from their refusing me care and/or doing harm, then
I'll start to scream in writing.  It's part of the grieving process.
It's a normal reaction to sadistic crimes & meanness, esp. those which
threaten my physical health & ability to survive, ... to those which
cause me extreme physical pain & suffering, & loss of function.

She's a "project". Hence why I suggested Dr. Phil. He's a "talk-show"
host, in case you don't recognize. Some shows have short segments (with
aftercare and followup). He does also "take on" difficult situations and
follows them long-term, has access, the power/influence and the $$$ to
get the person to the proper specialists, sometimes assists financially
with practical issues, even surgeries if they are called for. And he's a
Texan ! (but may now be in another State)

There are so many people here in Texas, that need help in finding
medical care for injuries & cancer, ... that I somehow doubt Dr. Phil
could help us with this at all.  I also doubt he's willing to pay for
lawyers to help us.

What you're saying makes no sense, J.  What you're choosing to do here,
is not only harmful, but very bad/ugly behavior.

While I realize that you have a tendency (at times) to fly off on
tangents, ... to be overly-supportive of standard cancer-care, & to
reject other forms of cancer care (integrative, alternative), ... & to
verbally attack & slander those who disagree with you, ... I'm hoping
you will make better choices in the future.

I do not appreciate being verbally-attacked like this by you.  I do not
appreciate your taking what's happened to me, & applying your sick &
twisted fantasies to it.

In the past, I've tried to ignore this, because you do settle down
eventually, will post some useful information about cancer care, & will
act supportive & caring.  

But right now, you're acting very out-of-control & mean.  What you're
doing is wrong.

Susan, Su_Texas  my opinions

PS  Integrative Cancer Care

While the chemotherapy & radiation might offer some benefits (I don't
know enough to judge this yet), ... the estrogen-blocking drugs
super-didn't work for me, & seem to have done a lot of harm.

Now, I need to come up with a good game plan, for fighting this cancer,
since the standard cancer-care is over.  The standard care has caused
some additional health problems, & has Not seemed to work well.

-----------

No matter how many people tell me to "Give up & not try", I refuse to
follow this bad advice.

While I understand, that it can seriously upset the medical industry &
their backers, ... for people to seek other treatments & care for
cancer, after the standard treatments are finished, ... it should be a
patient's right to do so.

No matter how many times I'm verbally-attacked, I will keep trying to
find ways to better fight this cancer.

I will have hope & keep trying.
