Thermography Saved My Life: How Alternative Screening Revealed What Mammograms Missed for a Decade with Jackie Rusek Zofkie
This episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions Dr. Michael Karlfeldt features an interview with Jackie Rosett Zafke on where she shares her powerful journey of how thermography saved her life. Jackie explains that mammography failed her for over a decade, leading her to seek alternative screening methods. She discovered thermography, a non-invasive, radiation-free imaging technique that detects temperature changes in breast tissue. This method revealed vascular activity that confirmed her suspicion of a cancerous tumor, something that traditional mammograms had missed for years. Jackie's diagnostic journey was challenging, involving multiple ultrasounds, mammograms, and eventually an MRI that showed a high bi-rad score indicating malignancy. After receiving her biopsy results showing ER+, PR+, HER2-, and a specific Ki-67 score, she made the difficult decision to undergo a bilateral mastectomy. The surgery involved removing 47 lymph nodes, and the immediate pathology report confirmed the presence of cancer. Throughout this process, Jackie emphasizes her gratitude for her surgeon's quick decision-making and thorough approach. Following her surgery, Jackie focused on comprehensive healing and recovery, working with Dr. Susan Silverstein to create an integrative healing team. Her approach included physical therapy to address lymphedema challenges, dietary changes based on food sensitivity tests, and incorporating various holistic practitioners and therapies. She made a significant decision regarding chemotherapy, choosing to stop after one dose following what she describes as an audible message from the Lord, and instead focused on natural and integrative healing methods while avoiding radiation and pharmaceuticals. Jackie's experience transformed her into a certified integrative nutrition health coach and holistic cancer coach, allowing her to support others facing similar challenges. Jackie emphasizes the importance of addressing root causes of cancer through consistent self-care, proper nutrition, exercise, and emotional well-being. Her website, bestforyouhealth.com, serves as a resource for those seeking healing and support. Jackie's story demonstrates the value of persistence in seeking alternative diagnostic methods and the power of integrative approaches to cancer treatment and recovery.Jackie Rosett Zafke shares how thermography, a non-invasive radiation-free imaging technique, successfully detected her breast cancer after mammograms failed to identify it for over a decade.Following her cancer diagnosis confirmed through biopsy results showing ER+, PR+, HER2- markers, Jackie chose to undergo a bilateral mastectomy with removal of 47 lymph nodes.Jackie made the personal decision to stop chemotherapy after just one dose, citing a spiritual message, and instead focused on natural and integrative healing methods while avoiding radiation and pharmaceuticals.Her recovery approach included working with Dr. Susan Silverstein to build a comprehensive healing team, incorporating physical therapy, dietary changes based on food sensitivity testing, and various holistic practitioners.Jackie's experience led her to become a certified integrative nutrition health coach and holistic cancer coach, now helping others through her website bestforyouhealth.com and emphasizing the importance of addressing cancer's root causes through consistent self-care.----Grab my book A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health Threat - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2----Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.
