Good morning, Gary. My mother has been diagnosed with CLL cancer, which is a form of leukemia that is treatable and has promising outcomes if great diets and health patterns are maintained. I’ve been listening to your content for months, and when I found out my mother is sick, the first person that came to my mind is you. I heard you say on the Nelk podcast that you’ve helped many people with different problems, and I was wondering if we can use your help and knowledge on health to better her situation. She’s very healthy and showing no signs of sickness, but I’m sure a lot of the things you recommend would help her enormously in the long run.
I personally feel devastated by the news and feel that I have lost complete control of my life. I’ve had to put my business on hold due to the demanding nature of the chemotherapy used to treat this type of cancer. I have two young children, and taking care of them while not being able to bring in money has been extremely difficult. The side effects from all the chemo I have had have made me very weak, extremely fatigued, nauseous, and easily confused. I’ve also developed a blood clot in the area where the tumors are and high blood pressure, so I am on blood thinners and blood pressure medication. I am also on TRT due to the orchiectomy. My life is in shambles. I am writing to you in hopes that maybe I can find some solutions to help get me off of blood thinners and blood pressure medicine, and also figure out how to go about reducing the chances of cancer coming back and maybe avoiding the surgery if at all possible.
