I had a fast moving version of CLL. I was told I would die if I did not have chemo. I opted to go natural. Mayo Clinic did a study with cancer patients using green tea with EGCG. I contacted a specialist who has a Phd in nutrition--he lives in Jacksonville, FL. I used his program which was partially designed with the Mayo study--today I feel great.

@harrybare, would you mind explaining the green tea with EGCG? I'm always curious to learn more about these sort of things, especially when it was something that was designed with help of Mayo Clinic.
Hello Martha, Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow — the spongy tissue inside bones where blood cells are made. You can read more about it here if you'd like, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/page/hematology/tab/resource-142/.
@marthalewfinn918, if you don't mind sharing, what sparks your interest in CLL?
Chronic Lymphonic Leukemia
Dr. Chanan Khan, at Mayo, has done a huge amount of research on CLL. He is considered a renowned expert in the field. The
green tea study, as you probably know was never made public. I met with Dr. Khan. The green tea, tumeric, and curcumasorb brought me back to health--it was a long struggle.
Hi Justin. Inherited Amaloid TTR Related Familial Polyneuropathy runs in my family as determined by DNA testing by 23andme in 2013. My brother recently told me that he was told by his oncologist that he had a dormant form of leukemia. I'm researching.

Glad to hear of your success. Could you tell me what CLL is?
