Good news I think. when you get 2 tests that differ one always

wonders which was right and a third may help.

Let us know if we can help in the future.

Really well tested alternative medical approaches to leukemia would

seem to me to be rare. But not my area of expertise.

The reasons we have made so many rapid advances in Cancer since I

started in medicine is due large scale multicenter trials. Indeed

the cancer folks have led the way in this. Many " promising " new meds

have bombed out when subjected to rigorus trials.

Recommend you consult with your heme onc person about what is new in

CLL and how it should be managed.

Don't worry. I've been researching cll for 8 years, and I've got it

covered. If you're interested in which alternative therapies work for cll,

let me know. I'm also well aware of standard care and go to Hopkins for

that.

Hey e,

If you are certain it may be your kidney you need more than just the "strippy" test. They need to do a culture and/or amybe an x-ray to see if you maybe hav a idney stone.

Maybe you need to see a nephrologist.

Are you going to a GP right now?

Do an ultra sound of the kidney area. Maybe something might show up.

Hi ,

FYI, they are able to test the blood specifically for parasites, testing

the IgG levels. Don't know if they would consider this allergy test or

not for you? These IgG levels are markers our body produces to anything

foreign, so they can test IgG for many different types of very specific

allergies.

Tommy -

I've been sleeping on mine every night for a year! I do know that my

body temp rises at night when I sleep on it, but don't know if the

effect carries over. FarInfrared has powerful detoxifying effects,

and I am hoping that my system has cleared enough to allowing it to

function more properly.
