Please go out immediately and purchase the book, "Beating cancer with nutrition".
Patrick Quillan is the author. I keep giving the book away and repurchasing it. Besides the book being a must have, in the back of the book are names of many alternative doctors, their numbers and state they are in. Barnes and Nobles or Borders.
Sincerely
drcla

| This is great info. the book 'BEATING CANCER WITH NUTRITION" i will rush and order it....even your driniing water matters...i was getting sick when n the hospitals and we were in a dizzy wondering whats going on...ny body can no longer tolerate water thats nof filtered and at home i boil my water and never use ice cubes when eating out..just have to bring my own ice cubes from my own boiled water..this has worked for me and kept me from getting any infections..so watch all that tap water and washing your vegs and fruits in it....wash everything ..keep passing on info....Thanks!

Hi sunshine,
I am also in my 7th year. have gone through 2 autos and one allo. Still not in remission. My mm is very aggressive and my dr is now looking into other treatments for me. I know that MSKCC in NY is a very good hospital, and they have centers in various states. Maybe there is an affiliate where you live or in Atlanta. Check it out.

| I am curious about your experience on Dex/Thal if you took this combo before transplant. How were you feeling when you started the stem cell the first time? We are trying to get to the point of getting mom a stem cell treatment. she doesn't seem to react like most people on the DEX. she gets very sick on it, hurting everywhere and feels like she isn't in her own body anymore and severe depression. She fights to stay on it as they tell her any other treatment will not allow her to get a transplant. We worry she has an agressive type also as you mentioned? Thanks

| I was on the dex/thal. treatment. the thalidomide gave me some neuropathy in the feet, and the dex gave me a lot of energy and insomnia. I did suffer from some emotional instability (crying and irritable) while on the dex, but the thal helped me to sleep. so I took the dex (40 mg) in the morning and the thal at night (200mg). my first transplant was very tough. i vomited because of the chemo, lost appetite, and was very weak, but you start to feel better after about one week. my second was not so bad i withstood the treatment and was in remission longer than the first. if i can be of further help let me know.
