Ming consulted the dean of oncological obfuscation, Dr. Boris Bumpemoff. He iterated that doctors once ignorantly bled patients. They then administered emetics to induce nausea and vomiting while plying patients with laxatives to purge them. Crushed beetles were applied to arms and legs to draw out blisters while resin of spruce did likewise for hands and feet. Sparing no expense, they administered a drink of ground seashells and hart's horn(ground antlers) to absorb excess fluids. How primitive averred Bumpemoff. Now all those salutary results are quickly achieved with chemo. The very thought of manipulating the immune system to reach a salubrious result in the height of barbarism. Besides one must convince the skeptical patient that your nostrums are working. How better to do that than making demonstrable changes in his physiognomy? Who can argue? Doctors know everything, especially when billions of dollars for chemo and the drugs to treat it's side effects are at stake.
