Probably nothing to worry about if you did not have that special German treatment. I took the challenge and Googled Hans Nieper and sure enough on various web sites that expose Cancer fraud, he popped right up. Here is a short summary
[quote]Hans A. Nieper, MD (1928-1998), a West German physician, specialized in treating cancer, heart disease, and multiple sclerosis. For cancer, he prescribed a combination of standard and unconventional agents, including pharmaceutical drugs, vitamins, minerals, and animal and plant extracts. He also recommended that patients follow a dietaty program that excluded dairy products and distilled water and avoid certain physical agents, foods, and physical locations ("geopathogenic zones") that he considered damaging. There is no scientific evidence that his regimens were effective against any disease. Former National Council Against Health Fraud Pesident William T. Jarvis, Ph.D., characterized Nieper as a "proponent of crank theories." Neither Nieper nor anyone else has published any appropriately designed studies that back his claims....
In 1986, after Nieper made a promotional tour, the FDA notified him that the products could not be legally imported into the United States . A few months later, the FDA issued an import ban and a Talk Paper stating that the products had not been proven safe or effective . In 1993, the FDA learned that a company based in the United States was illegally manufacturing orotates and other Nieper products. The company's president was prosecuted and the products were seized and destroyed.[/quote]
Think about the TV show with Farrah Fawcett celebrating her "cure" over cancer from that nice German doctor and her clinic - a nice dinner and the private jet over and back - then repeat visits and of course then Death.
Sounds like our poster was very lucky. Just saying
