Thank you! I’m pleased. My hematologist/oncologist is very skeptical but I did start taking turmeric/curcumin. I take 1000 MG’s twice a day. I started out with 1000 once a day and added the evening dose after having good results the first six months of 2024. My numbers had been inching up and I heard so many accounts of people having good results with turmeric that I decided to try a higher dose. I did check with my PCP and went through all my medication’s with the staff Pharm D at my med center clinic. Finding no interaction issues, I increased the dose.
My latest appointment again showed a drop in my “numbers.”
Other than that, I haven’t made any lifestyle changes nor have there been medication changes of any kind. I’m guessing it’s related to the turmeric/curcumin. I couldn’t wait to tell my oncologist, but he simply shrugged and said he had no objection to me taking it. He’s going to have to see big number data before he gets excited. Bah humbug!
Thanks for asking. My empiricist leanings don’t allow me to get too giddy because it’s impossible to establish cause/effect but my numbers went down with both of my hem/onc appointments in 2024. I am also monitoring kidney and liver function. So far so good.
