    Yes i have a patient who is blood transfusion free for over 2 years now who needed a BT every 4-7 days. It was a case of failed chemotherapy. Jakavi and Thalix both had failed. A very interesting case study 😊

    How you keep antibodies low with having that many transfusions?

    Today we are 26 days transfusion free. We started essential oils and complete diet change. Some supplements… smoothie every morning made with Greek yogurt, flax seed, almond milk, frozen organic dark berries, apples, pears, avacodo, kale, chia seeds, papaya (for platelets) a different combo every day. We juice every evening carrots, celery, apples, pear. He has eliminated most processed sugars.
