Awesome. I’m in remission for 7 months. No meds. Doc wants to start me on revlimed in July. Why take it if I’m still in remission. If my numbers are off then start meds. Am I wrong in that thinking

I have I disassociated with the disease and act like I do not have it. I do not let it rule my life I rule my life myself I do my treatments the way I want to do them if I don't feel like having treatment or I need a break I've taken many many breaks against my doctor's wishes. And I am cancer free. To me I believe the treatment will kill you. Do I believe that you need to do some treatment yes but the amount of treatment that they want you to do I don't believe you have to. I believe you should stop and let your body have a break from all these drugs because the drugs are actually what we can turn immune system and you can't fight. That's just my thoughts I've taken months off I've taken 3 to 4 months off and then went back on last year I took the entire summer off just because I wanted to enjoy my summer and I came back and I felt good I did treatment and now I'm cancer-free

I agree with you, Kim! I don't want to start chemo again unless my numbers go up

That’s great Colleen, Good to hear, thank you! 🤗
I’m taking one treatment at a time and evaluating if I want to continue after each treatment as to whether or not, the cancer is hurting me more or the chemo .I’ve been following Nathan Crane on conquering cancer, eating the healthiest diet and living the healthiest lifestyle and thinking the healthiest thoughts.
Were you diagnosed with multiple myeloma and were you given the four drug protocol once a week?🤔

Kim, how much chemo did you go through? How was it?
Did you do radiation? If so how was it? 🤔
