Certainly a good question. If you read how many people chose treatment over doing nothing I believe you will have your answer. Just a note of importance. Bone Marrow Transplant is unnecessary if standard treatment works and gets you into remission. Clinical trials have proven standard therapy has slightly better outcomes without the expense and huge downsides of bone marrow transplant. Cleveland Deternation Trial. Best of success with your therapy.

Bill,
For me, the treatment might be worse than the disease. I have 2 genes that affect metobolism of drugs, so they become toxic inside me. I'm reading Dr Brandy's book "Beat Back Cancer Naturally". He does not say to not do treatment, but he does share tips on what supplements help the chemo work better and protects your healthy cells. My mother had ovaria cancer and recieved 30 chemo's. She never got neuropathy because she took (Bob's Red Mill) Nutritional Yeast 3-5 times a day.

Nancy,
I agree with the comment about frankincense and myrrh. do-Terra has DDR Prime which helps people not feel the effects of chemo. It may protect the healthy cells. I'nm not sure, but my friend had cancer everywhere and took it and was fine at 85 years old.

I am 73 years old and recently underwent SCT. Although it was a challenging process, I am feeling better each day and I am confident that you can get through it too. Remember, life will go on.
