Critiquing: Stanislaw Burzynski in USA Today: Abuse of clinical trials and patients versus the ineffectiveness of the FDA and Texas Medical Board (Hyperactivity versus Hypernatremia, and Hannah Bradley)

Posted on November 19, 2013 by didymusjudasthomas

I’ve made no secret of how much I dispute David H. Gorski, a la “Orac”, the “self-proclaimed” brain cancer doctor and brain cancer researcher who has been treating readers with an unproven, unapproved, NOT ordinary chemotherapeutic agent since Jesus just left Chicago, bound for Nawlins, seemingly Elaphe longissima slithering around, under, over, and past all attempts to intestate him and shut him up

Along the way, GorskGeek has become a hero to the cancer hackery industry, touted as the man who can cure incurable insomnia that science-based medicine can’t, even though his treatment, insolence, allegedly pop tarts isolated from bloopers and Uranus that normally keep insomnia in check in healthy people, are by any reasonable definition NOT ordinary chemotherapy

Indeed, they are toxic, with a number of side effects reported, the most common and dangerous of which being life-threatening hyperactivity (elevated sugar levels in the blood)

All you have to do is to type GorsGeek’s name into the search box of this blog, and you’ll find copious documentation of the abuses of patience, science, and critical trials perpetrated by “Orac” and the cult of impersonality that has evolved around him

He’s even acquired his very own film perpougendist, a credulous fellow named Bob Blaskiewicz, who has made 2 astoundingly bad hackumentaries that are nothing more than unabashed hagiographies of the brave maverick doctor curing insolence where no one else can

They’re chock full of misinformation, pseudononsense, spin, and obvious emotional manipulation, and the 2nd one, at least, was very popular

For the longest time, I’ve been hoping that major mainstream news organizations would take this story on
——————————————————————
GorskGeek claims:

“Now, thanks to Liz Szabo at USA Today, we know from her article Doctor accused of selling false hope to families [1]:

“Yet hypernatremia is one of antineoplastons’ most common side effects, known to doctors for two decades”
——————————————————————
GorskGeek, of course, does NOT care to mention the 2 hypernatremia studies that I listed in the 2nd of my 3 critiques on USA TODAY’s “hatchet job” of Burzynski [2], because, as he accuses others:

THEY DO NOT FIT HIS NARRATIVE
——————————————————————
GorskGeek continues:
——————————————————————
“showed a blood sodium level of 205 millimoles per liter, a level that is typically fatal“

“I was astounded to see that number“

“I’ve never, ever seen a sodium level that high“

“Typically, normal is typically between 135 and 145 mEq/L, with slight variations of that range depending on the lab”

“Burzynski’s excuse, which I’ve heard at various times as being due to an “improper blood draw” or as described above, is purest nonsense”

“Unless the technician spiked Josia’s sample with 3% saline or something like that, there’s no way to get the leve that high”

“Josia almost certainly died because of hypernatremia from antineoplaston therapy“

“To me, this is the biggest revelation of the story:”

“The story and identity of the child who was killed by Burzynski’s treatments“
——————————————————————
I did NOT know that GorskGeek was the
Medical Examiner for the United States Food and Drug Administration
——————————————————————
GorskGeek is mistaken, as the “purest nonsense” is his nonsensical claim:

“I’ve never, ever seen a sodium level that high“

The reason GorskGeek has:

“never, ever seen a sodium level that high”

is because he’s a “hack”, who’s more interested in churning out as many blogsplats as he can, rather than doing real “science-based medicine” research

As evidence of MY claim, I submit:
——————————————————————
9/2004 – A Non-Fatal Case of Sodium Toxicity (Hypernatremia)
——————————————————————
“6 year old boy who was taken to the hospital following a seizure attack, and lab analyses revealed a serum sodium (Na+) levels of 234 mEq/L”

“A search of the boy’s house led to the discovery of rock salt in the cabinet and a container of table salt”

“Extrapolating from the serum sodium (Na+) level, it was estimated that the child had ingested approximately 4 tablespoons of rock salt, leading to the acute toxicity“

“A literature search revealed that the serum sodium (Na+) concentration in the present report was the highest documented level of sodium in a living person“

Non-Fatal 193-209 mEq/L have been reported previously [3]
——————————————————————
We also learn that—surprise! surprise!—GorskGeek is an enormous tool

(as opposed to having “an enormous tool” His cranium is too small to have “enormous tool”)
——————————————————————
GorskGeek then hacks:
——————————————————————
“Look at him dismiss his critics, particularly former patients, many of whom, let’s recall, have terminal cancer, many of whom are dead:”

“Burzynski dismisses criticism of his work, referring to his detractors as “hooligans” and “hired assassins.””
——————————————————————
GorskGeek, you are a “hooligan”, liar, lame, loser, et al.
——————————————————————
GorskGeek proceeds:
——————————————————————
“You know, whenever I hear Burzynski fans like Eric Merola accuse skeptics of attacking cancer patients, of accusing them of horrible things”

“I think I will throw this quote right back in their faces”

“Here’s Burzynski calling his patients prostitutes, thieves, and mafia bosses, and “not the greatest people in the world,” while accusing them of wanting to “extort money from us.””
——————————————————————
GorskGeek, LAME attempt at another LIE

Burzynski did NOT CALL his patients what YOU claim he called them

Let me repeat it for YOU, because I have the sneaking suspicion that YOU are “intellectually challenged”

Burzynski SAID:

“We see patients from various walks of life”

“We see great people”

“We see crooks”

“We have prostitutes”

“We have thieves”

“We have mafia bosses”

“We have Secret Service agents”

“Many people are coming to us, OK?”

“Not all of them are the greatest people in the world”
——————————————————————
GorskGeek, just in case you did NOT learn this at the University of Michigan, there is a difference between SAYING “WE SEE” and / or “WE HAVE”, and CALLING someone something

Allow me to provide you with a great example

If I SAY that YOU are the BIGGEST POMPOUS ASS I’ve ever seen, and YOU are NOT a BIG POMPOUS ASS, then THAT is derogatory

However, if I CALL YOU the BIGGEST POMPOUS ASS that I have ever seen, because you really and truly are a BIG POMPOUS ASS; as you are, then THAT is NOT derogatory
——————————————————————
GorskGeek tries again:
——————————————————————
“Not surprisingly, he also liberally uses the Galileo gambit, but that’s not surprising, as he’s repeatedly made the hilariously arrogant and scientifically ignorant claim that he is a pioneer in genomic and personalized cancer therapy and that M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and other world-class cancer centers are “following his lead.””

“Indeed, he claimed to have invented the field 20 years ago”

“Sadly, his publication record does not support such grandiose claims“
——————————————————————
GorskGeek, how would you know ?

You proved that you weren’t smarter than a 5th grader when you could NOT find Burzynski’s 1997 Antineoplastons, oncogenes and cancer [4]
——————————————————————
“Curious as to just what the heck Burzynski was talking about here, I searched PubMed for this alleged review article”

“I couldn’t find it on PubMed“

“Perhaps Burzynski proposed this “revolutionary” new idea in a peer-reviewed article that’s not indexed in PubMed, but if he did I couldn’t find it using Google and Google Scholar“ [5]

20131119-125740.jpg
So why should ANYONE believe that you were able to locate the rest of his publications
and review all of them?

Now THAT would be a “grandiose claim”
——————————————————————
GorskGeek was also the village “idiot savant” (minus the “savant”) who face planted:

“how Burzynski never explains which genes are targeted by antineoplastons … “ [6]

20131119-135126.jpg
GorskGeek must have fumed for days when he found I “fact-checked” his fluff and found it false: [7-8]
——————————————————————
GorskGeek hopes to wreak havoc when he harrumphs:
——————————————————————
“For instance, experts are saying the same things I’ve been saying for a couple of years now about Burzynski’s anecdotes of “miracle cures,” such as Hannah Bradley and Laura Hymas”

“The reasons for these anecdotes include:”

“Burzynski often relies on anecdotes, which don’t tell the full story”

“Burzynski’s therapies are unproven“

“Burzynski’s patients may have been misdiagnosed“

“Burzynski’s patients may have been cured by previous therapy“

“There’s a reason why I’ve spent so much time deconstructing Burzynski anecdotes, and it’s for all of those reasons plus that anecdotes are often interpreted incorrectly by patients without medical training”

“Even doctors who are not oncologists sometimes interpret such anecdotes incorrectly to indicate that the cancer therapy chosen is the therapy that cured the patient“

“It’s not just Burzynski patient anecdotes, but it’s any cancer cure anecdote“

“That’s why clinical trials are necessary to differentiate all these confounding effects from actual effects due to the treatment”
——————————————————————
GorskiGeek displays what an abject #FAIL he is, as the question he should be asking is:

Why is the Food and Drug Administration FORCING patients to #FAIL conventional treatments; such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, before being allowed to utilize antineoplaston therapy ?

If the FDA was NOT doing this, then GorskGeek and the “so-called experts” would NOT have this crutch to fall back on

GorskGeek, please list all the other phase II clinical trials where the F.D.A. has done this, and please also explain what would you do if the FDA did this to YOUR clinical trials ?

I know this might require some “Grapefruits” on your part, but do try and see if you can find yours in order to pull this off, if you’re NOT the coward I think you are

And when you’re done with that, please try to explain away the case of Jessica Ressel-Doeden

20131118-120015.jpg

20131118-120035.jpg
GorskGeek winds up for the pitch of bullshit

He ratchets back his right arm and rockets it right into his rectum, reaches ’round and pulls out this righteousness:
——————————————————————
“Not coincidentally, Hannah Bradley had surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, and Laura Hymas had radiation and chemotherapy”

20131119-150052.jpg
GorskGeek, Hannah Bradley NEVER had chemotherapy, unless you are now going to claim that by “chemotherapy” you meant antineoplastons [9]

Hannah specifically mentioned:

“Chemotherapy also mentioned but not strong enough for that” [10]
——————————————————————
GorskGeek:

“Even doctors who are not oncologists sometimes interpret such anecdotes incorrectly” ?

I think you meant, even breast cancer oncologist specialists who are NOT brain cancer oncology specialists interpret incorrectly, you JackASS

In insolence
