Hi. Thank you so much for your input. I am sorry about your husband. I read about the trial but knowing me and my lifestyle mostly having to do with work,,, I don't think I would be able to stick to it. We prob go to the same specialist at Sloan.

Do you feel that eating plant based has helped to keep your numbers stable? How are you feeling?

Thank you for your kindness and support.

Best always,
Jeannie

Jeannie, my specialist at Sloan is Dr. Urvi Shah, BTW. As far as eating plant-based, my local specialist told me on my last visit with him that he felt it might be early too say, but it seemed to be working as my labs have remained stable. I will return to MSK for my one year and final study visit and will have a PET-CT, Bone Marrow Biopsy and my usual labs and will learn more as to the potential benefits to date. The study protocol provided a meal plan for the first 12 weeks and I picked up on one after that. Being alone, has made implementing the whole-food, plant-based diet far easier, but at the same time a bit less fun. As my late husband would say, "A burden shared is half a burden." BTW, not expected to be 100% WFPB, but shoot for that and accept 70%.
