For those who are interested, I just found a great site with some alternate cancer treatments and this.....

Quote:
The majority of ovarian cancer patients have high levels of copper in their system. The usual pattern is across the board drop in nutrients and higher copper concentrations over time. Copper affects absorption of chromium and zinc (and others). Copper is also needed for angiogenesis. Preclinical and in vitro studies done at the University of Michigan (Dr. Brewer) determined that copper is an important co-factor for angiogenesis. Reducing copper reduced angiogenesis. Cancer cells need new blood vessels to grow. If there is excess copper in the system of women with ovarian cancer, it probably is contributing to new blood vessel growth.

And I am betting that the copper reacted more because of the mercury in my body. I got pelvic inflammatory disease after I got the IUD and later had to have a hysterectomy because of precancerous cells...and now ovarian cancer. I am betting it was caused from the reaction to the copper 7. My cousin had a copper IUD and had 2 fallopian tube pregnancies and a lady that works for my dentist had fallopian tube cancer after having a copper IUD. I wonder how many more there are out there. I have to start a website to get this info out.....
