My wife was diagnosed with extensive (stage 4) small cell lung cancer in July.

Her oncologist's prognosis on July 11th was a few weeks to a few short months without treatment. Or a year to two with treatment. A death sentence that they can do nothing about.

I've followed Dr. John Campbell on YouTube. He had Dr. Makis on his channel. He talks about repurposed drugs such as Ivermectin and Fenbendazole.

I've been in direct contact with Dr. Makis and his team (via email) of assistants since very late July. I've had my wife on Ivermectin and Fenbendazole since mid July, before I spoke with Dr. Makis's team via email.

Her chemo started on July 24th. She's had a pleural effusion since then.

Hospitalised with many complications after her 1st round. "Life threatening injuries" were the exact words of her oncologist.

Radiotherapy, and more rounds of chemo. Her 4th and hopefully last round intravenously was on October 15th.

Chemotherapy = Carboplatin + Etopiside

Also immunotherapy = Atezolizumab.

Now, her cancer has shrunk "significantly". However this is to be expected with standard treatments of sclc. The problem is it will come back with standard treatment. If standard treatments work at all. So far so good. I don't know if it's been complety killed off yet.

That's why we're on this protocol. I'm praying it's all not a scam or some sick joke. The world is full of weirdos who make up stories for reasons I don't know. But we've got hope. So even if it's a scam or weirdos, it's given us a glimmer of light.

She's 37. *36* when the xray showed her cancer. Her last scan showed the tumour to be 5cmx6cmx4cm. Results after her 3rd round will be discussed tomorrow. A mention of grey glass and semi solid nodules were on a letter. Google is frightening. But again she's on the protocol. So we shall see.

Please if you read this just wish my wife well.

I can clarify anything on this comment that may not make sense as it's alot of info since we started this journey

Thank you. Its not looking promising. I'm so scared and struggling to hold it together. I don't know how I'm going to live with without her. We can't give up. But the protocol I'm on with Makis is NOT stopping the cancer.

I've posted this post somewhere about tge meeting today.

I'm 41. She is 37. We've been together/inseparable since she was 15.

I literally fell in love at 1st sight. I can't lose her

My 80 year young mom picked up the lymph node type. Egg sized lump under her jaw. Chemo wasn't scheduled for 6 weeks so we put her on a diet. No sugar/carbs. Only protein and veggies. Tea brewed of devil's club root, polypore mushroom, burdock root and stinging nettle. Plus 24 mg of Ivermectin a day.

By the time her chemo appointment arrived her tumor was nearly gone. When the Dr wondered where it went, she told him the protocol. He said that if he was to bring this forward to his colleagues he'd be ostracized, but to stay the course because it obviously was doing something.

She completed their BS pharma regime and now is healthy. She is still on the tea for prevention. Hope this helps David. We believe in Ivermectin. Prayers for your wife.

Praying for the best for your wife. Ivermectin and Fenbendazole cured my Alpha Gal (tick bite induced red meat allergy). Dosage given to me by Dr. Makis. Have hope. ❤️

Very best to you and your wife 🙏

I wanted to share one thing that has been encouraging to me about Ivermectin (besides 2nd smartest’s articles) was an interview of Kathleen Ruddy, cancer surgeon and researcher.

It was initially done on The Epoch Times, but is also available on YouTube and Rumble, I believe.

She shares 3 cases of full remission using IVM, that she observed, and an observational study starting up, as well.

Again my very warmest thoughts and prayers.

Thank you.

I'll check her out. My wife's meeting with Oncology wasn't a positive one. But we're not giving up

Good news her tumor has shrunk significantly! We were one of Dr. Makis 1st patients. Got 40% reduction in about 6-8 weeks. It's important to make sure she takes with fats, oleic acid is best for absorption, such as olive oil. Make sure u get reliable IVM and we used Merck Panacur Fenben from pet stores. Makis did a podcast with James Templeton, stage 4 survivor, informative. IVM kills csc. I have also been reading about Niclosamide and how effective it is. Justusrhope sub stack, he's dr, just posted on it. I have read about it in many Dr's sub stacks. Many good sub stacks out there, where dr's can post freely, there is also a Fenben sub stack. Oncologists have 1 thing in their tool box, chemo. Here in USA they get at least 6% kickback every time they use it. Do not let them get to you. Faith over fear I pray for her healing

It's now Nov 13th. We're moving to a more suitable home due to her prognosis. Yesterday *WE* did 5 tip runs in the car. She will not be disabled. If I try to stop, slow, or steady, her she goes berserk!

I'm looking at her from afar in the recycling centre (the tip), and watching her amongst all these people who would have no idea of her condition, advanced Stage 4 highly aggressive terminal cancer. Laughing to myself if they new, they'd drop everything to take the loads out of her hands. And she'd go mental at them lol. She's such a hardcase. Tiny little petite beautiful little woman. But hard as nails. It's funny, in the hospital, she is such a cry baby about needles and canulas. But she is in genuine agony with her veins being injected or pierced. A port and picc line have previously been shut down in discussions. It's too invasive for her dignity. Her 3rd and 4th round of carboplatin/Etoposide I thought weren't going to happen with the failed canula attempts by nurses. Hot water bottles were used along with numbing cream. We got there in the end. Anyway, if those nurses saw her in action yesterday, they'd know she's no drama queen. It truly was causing her agony.

We spoke with one of her oncologists last week as her main Dr. was on leave. The one we spoke to last week is the radiotherapy specialist, and as the chemo has only "partially worked" then he thinks the next step would be radiotherapy while the cancer is in relative control (the surrounding lymph nodes and plura are stable).

Rather then put her on 2nd line chemo (CAV, "the red devil") as it may not work and her cancer has time in those months to grow out of control. Radiotherapy may not be an option if that were the case. 10 sessions spread over 10 week days starting on Nov 20th 2025 - Dec 3rd 2025.

We'll see how it goes. Radiotherapy was something that wasn't even an option with her original prognosis back in July.

Also since her oncologist told her the primary is growing 1cm in 19 days (6cm -7cm) I've upped her ivermectin to 72mg a day from originally 48mg (48mg in morning and 24mg in evening).

She's about 48kg in weight, soaking wet.

That phone call broke our hearts. We thought we were onto something with Makis. I had to switch it up a little and attack this cancer and mental situation from another angle. I read up on Joe Tippens already but we were on our path with Makis. So now it was time to try it out. I ordered her the onco adjunct 4 pathways package. $200 postage to England on top of the cost if it. I then claimed to own 50 (I own one jack Russel lol) dogs and ordered her 90 x 1g sachets of panacur (222mg fenben)!

We already had doubts about what we were using from IndiaMart. So by jumping on the Tippens protocol that nullified those doubts. She continues with Maki's protocol too. But we're hitting it from both angles. Alot of Joe Tippens pathways are on the Makis protocol for her. So drug interactions I don't think are an issue.

Just wanted to share this. To look at her (with her wig on) you'd never know she's got anything wrong with her let alone advanced Stage cancer.

An incredibly strong woman who I am so grateful to God to have given me 20+ years with and 2 beautiful babies.

Actually, Joe Tippens used Fenbendazole to cure his stage 4 cancer. But, if he had known in 2017 about Ivermectin’s efficacy against cancer, he’d have probably tried it instead of Fenbendazole. Both anti parasite drugs have anti cancer mechanisms. Fenbendazole is generally much cheaper to purchase than Ivermectin. Personally, I followed Joe Tippens’ protocol using Fenbendazole which (with Divine help) cured my high grade bladder cancer (in 2019) and also my sister’s stage 4 (on Hospice) breast cancer (in 2022). Even so, I’ve added Ivermectin as a prophylactic as it’s known to also kill cancer stem cells, which Fenbendazole doesn’t.

Thanks for sharing your story! What dosage if IVM do you take & do you take it every day?

Expand full comment
Tom Childs's avatar

I take 24mg Ivermectin a few days per week. I probably don’t need to anymore but mostly for insurance sake now.

In an actively aggressive cancer, I’d be taking anywhere from 24mg to 60mg per day maybe 5 consecutive days per week, with two days off to balance, repair and clear the body. Everyone is different. Some types of cancer may require higher doses but caution should be taken, especially when using a veterinary version of the drug.

I don't know where or how to use this app too well.

But I'll just quickly say, her primary tumour although initially reacting well to the chemo (Carboplatin, Etoposide and atezolizumab), has now grown to 7cm from 6cm in 3 weeks.

Her cancer elsewhere in her lung is "stable."

Radiotherapy is not an option right now as it's too soon from her last round of radiotherapy and they are concerned about her spine.

Surgery is also not an option as it's wrapped around her airways.

So her other option is to have a new set of chemo drugs called "CAZ."

Forgive me if I don't respond.

I'm not a 'troll.' I'm from Bristol, England. This is all going on between the BRI hospital and Southmead hospital. They are a shambles. Its "free health care."

My tax pays for.

I'm desperate. We're still trying to process everything. I've emailed info@makisw.com for some insight.

She's not giving up. We'll try the keto and panacur. Joe Tippen's protocol. It's that, or lie-down and die.

We've 2 children. 16 and 18 now. But still our babies.

Dr.M recommended 2x that much fenben about the same ivermectin per weight.

I'm in direct contact with him and his team. He gave me a protocol that was 1mg x 1kg of body weight. I've just got her histology from 2 hospitals here in Bristol. Awaiting images.
