Knowing that you had a positive result is real encouraging. I have a real trouble following the watchful waiting program.
My M-protein and IgM values have been doubling every 6 months and I went through the same reaction as you and also decided to give Curcumin a try. My oncologist had the same reaction as yours. I interpreted her reaction as she was just a going by the book type person and would never encourage deviation from the standard protocol most likely due to liability concerns. Can't really blame her for that.
I had read about an ongoing trial that was using 8 grams/day but couldn't find out any other specifics. So for the last few months I slowly ramped up using the C3 complex formula. I'm currently up to about 6 grams/day of 95% curcuminoids per day.
Can you tell me more details about your situation regarding blood tests results and curcumin/turmeric protocol?

I think there's a lot of interest in this. Leslie and I were just discussing it so I won't be repetitious, but I would add that I think given what some of the others are taking, my curcumin dose is fairly modest. I've had two rounds of blood analysis since I started. I hope the numbers continue to go down. If I plateau I might consider upping the dosage if my docs are on board.
I have another round of bloodwork and scans in May and we'll see how it goes.
