I wrote this in norwegian some weeks ago, and finally got it out in anglaise.
Sometimes, when it comes to cancer treatment, it gets so absurd. That, as we say in Norway, it's really not good to say if one should cry or laugh. Laugh of the intense stupidity amongs well educated people, or cry because it has potentially really sad outcome for many people.
In the city of Bergen, and only in Bergen in Norway for some reason, cancer patients have access to hyperbaric oxygen, which is used to treat late injuries of cancer treatment. Thus, not as cancer treatment. In other citys they do have hyperbaric oxygen, but then used in conjuction with decompression sickness.

Lars Monsen, a famous wildlifer in Norway, had a series where he brought people with reduced physics out hiking+ so to speak. One of the guys there had survived a cancer type rarely surviveable 3 times against all odds, where it was unusual to survive even once with this type.
When NRK (the governmantal force financed channel) wrote an article about it, they could tell that he had to have superDNA that had survived 3 times. The researchers were about to dive into his genetics to find out why he was such a good patient. Just as the cancer drug sellers want it, recurring customer, without referring to the researchers, but to the pharmaceutical industry.
Here is the guy at the far left
In an article article, the man is depicted, smiling, in a hyperbaric oxygen tank that is used for those who have had late injuries after cancer treatment.

Like this they are spending incredible amounts, focusing on the mans DNA, when the solution, with all likelihood, is just lying just in front of their noses. Presumably because he was rehabilitated of the damage the cancer treatment caused with hyperbaric oxygen.
Or could it be as a reason of it may not be as exciting to research as genes and DNA? Or maybe it may not give as much research funding as researching hyperbaric oxygen?
In the same city, in Bergen, you get research results that show that putting cancer patients, or at least the mouse with cancer, into hyperbaric oxygen tanks does have an effect on the outcome.

And more from the Department of Biomedicine, also in Bergen.

Much of this dates back to around 2010, today we are in 2017. How long should you make it up to a (corrupted) system that you and yours get the treatment that gives you the greatest chance of survival, and at least late injuries?
This is one of the reasons I say that the state must be out of health. They must stop providing healthcare and they must stop believing that they know how to treat people. Even that they can fund scientists to do so.
When people say how satisfied they are with today's healthcare, it's all good. We do have nice people in the government health care in Norway. But they had received at least as good treatment somewhere you did not have to pay for bureaucrats, in addition to the doctor and the nurses, and actually survived the disease as well!
