Please post again, uk1987, and let us know how your husband is doing after going back on his diet.

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” - Hippocrates

I do believe there is some wisdom and truth in that statement.

When I was diagnosed as possible multiple myeloma about three months ago, I changed my diet to vegan, gluten-free, and low sugar. While I am a multiple myeloma patient, I feel great after this change! I had some neurological stuff that disappeared and a pain in my side that has gone away completely. I was getting really warm and sweating and feeling tired. All these things went away approximately two months or so after changing my diet. I also take some raw vitamins and curcumin. I have not started drug therapy yet. Probably in about a month (waiting on approval). So, I thought I would post this for anybody that wants to give it a try. I cannot tell you the difference it has made! I am so happy to feel so good!
