Hello good people, I have smoldering MM and lately it seems I catch any bug going around. The grandkids have something going on all the time. I have been taking D3 and vitamin C with zinc.
Just wanted some recommendations on what others are doing?
Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and take care!

I’ve decided to stay on Allegra and use nasacort daily as recommended by PA. Cool humidifier at night. I’m terrified of it coming back. I just can’t be sick again!

Rebecca I know what you are saying. I fought a cough for 2 months, persistent to the point of uncontrollable coughing. Got over it for about a month and now I’m starting again. Thank you replying. Will

Samar,
I discovered NONI when my daughter was in 1st Grade. We were sick all of her Kindergarten year. I met a woman who adopted her grandson, and they were never sick! I asked what her secret was. She said “We take NONI and liquid minerals everyday.” I went out right away and got Doctor’s Best NONI. Every time I would get a sore throat, I would take 2 capsules with each meal. The sore throat would go away! By the next day I would feel so good, I would forget to keep taking it, and the sore throat would come back. I learned to use it like antibiotics. I take it for 4-5 days at every meal and bedtime. I am rarely sick. I forget to use it now, since I’m rarely sick. Since it helps boost the immune system, I wonder if it would help with MM? @A MyMyelomaTeam Member, have I told you about NONI?

Will,
Everyone around me has been sick and coughing. Amazingly I have not gotten it. The only supplements I’m taking are Nordic Naturals D3 & K2. 1-2 a day. I know they said if you are not deficient in D3 you did better with Covid. I also take MRM Bone Maximizer III (Calcium) 3-6 a day. My diet has been horrible. My stomach is not working properly, so I’ve been eating rice, bananas, broth, tea, and toast for months! No vegetables or fruit, so I thought my blood tests would be horrible, but they did not change much.
