Re: Help please

Valley, I think it really could help. I wouldn't have known if I, myself, had not read it on this site. It honestly is, I would say, at least 80% better. I was so sore I was barely getting around. When I first told my onc what I wanted, he was pretty condescending when I mentioned I belonged to a forum and had gotten my information from there, but the chemo nurse seemed to know exactly what I was talking about. For insurance billing reasons, she said she would try it one time mixed with the sterile water rather than the vial of preservative, and I would have to report back to her on the difference it made. The first time was some better, so I just stuck with it, and honestly after a few treatments without the preservative it just went away. I hope it does the same for you, and Im thinking it will because our cases sound so similar. Here's to feeling better! Let us know how it goes.
