CLL leukemia: Just diagnosed, what can be done?

Thank you for your response and support Lori. My oncologist simply admitted she does not know what treatment to pursue that will help me ...... I will start leukeran in July (which I also had in 2014), if that doesn't help, will try chemo and finally radiation. I am very active physically, the only symptom at present is a swollen abdomen. I do not expect a further diagnosis or treatment suggestion, simply would appreciate knowing what other members have tried with success ..... i.e. in 2014 I went on an extreme health regime taking Barleygreen, ginger, curcumin and fresh juices, etc but find the juicing time-consuming ......thanks again for your prompt response! Have a good day!

Medicine is changing very quickly over time. It is necessary to keep informed of the last changes for the best approach. One important example of this is the Chinese approach using curcumin. The following older study show curcumin was important, but also points out that in it's normal form capsules even up to 8000 to 12000 mg/day were not absorbed into the blood stream. What little gets to the blood only stays a few hours because it is water soluble.

All has changed now. Taking 95% curcuminoids with black pepper extract capsules orally is 2000% more absorbed into the blood. Available online. It still only stays in the body a short time, which can be remedied by taking it several times a day. More trials are being done to show the new found effectiveness of available cuccumin in the treatment of cancer and many other disorders or conditions.
