Hi Steph!

Jeez, how comparatively simple life was BD (before diagnosis)! Disciplined diet and exercise do seem to make a lot of difference, so I send lots of kudos to you for keeping that as part of the plan. Have you met any others at the cancer center who might be somewhat comparable to your situation? Don't forget to consider the value of natural vitamin D exposure! At present I am feeling nervous about the lack of it here this year because normally I have been able to get at least 15 to 20 minutes here and there between the snow storms, but this year that simply has not been the case.... I've been taking extra vitamin D3 (but keeping it around 1500 to 1800 IU). I hope you are having more luck with it in Seattle!
