CMML
by: M M on Tue, Jun 30 2009

My mother has been diagnosed with CMML recently. she is 73 years old. Doctors tell us the survival time is only 12 to 24 months. They do not recommend any treatment as that would harm her more than help. Have surfed the net and found out that there are people who have survived for 8, 5, 3 years, which contradicts what medical professionals say. The disease seems to be very enigmatic. Going to start with homeopathic medicine soon. Am really at a loss of what to believe and expect. I would appreciate some explanation or personal experience on this topic.

thank you
