  • Jan 28, 2020 results: 2.23 Kappa/lambda  glucose 107.

6 drops Maitake, Omega 3,  Vit D & K (1000IU) 4.5g Curcumin we EGCG, 1.5g Berberine, Garlic, Olive leaf extract, Macuhealth, Na Bicarb, black cumin see, Mag 64 & Magnesium

  • June 3, 2020 results:  1.89 Kappa Lambda ratio (better! )  glucose 97

         I added Pancreas pills (a proteolytic enzyme – replacing Wobenzyme) – on empty stomach when first wake up & in afternoon& some mushroom extracts (2 Beta glucan, Benegene, Peak Immune, AHCC). Still  do very low carb & intermittent fasting

  • Sept 1, 2020  results: 1.44 (WOW!!!  Significant improvement!!) Kappa/ Lambda ratio  glucose 91. % of kidneys that are functional 56.6%

       These numbers were really surprising!  My numbers are back in normal range!  Is it the Pancreas or the mushroom extracts?  Not sure so I will keep both.  Take 2 pancreas in night when I get up to go to the bathroom and 2 on empty stomach in morning.

  • Nov 27, 2020 results : 1.85 Kappa/lambda ratio – little higher, but still pretty awesome! % of kidneys that are functional 49.4%

Feb 2022 & Sept 2022 – my numbers are stable – the kappa/lambda ratio is close to normal and kidneys are about 50%.  In Feb my oncologist said he only has one Multiple Myeloma patient who has lived as long and he takes pretty high doses of prescription drugs.  I take no prescriptions at all.  My blood pressure is 120/80.  Aug 8 2022 my oncologist said, “MM is supposed to be incurable but your are stable – just keep following your keto diet.”.

I will try to write this log for the next 60 days.  It gets time consuming but it keeps me careful and diligent.  I had my doctors appointment and the PA called it “stable” but I saw things that had improved and things that had gotten a bit worse. My kappa/lambda ratio is up slightly.  I am not taking any more Revlamid because of 2 things.  I have seen some studies showing it does not prolong overall survival and also I have only had my WBC in the normal range 1 time in 2 1/2 months and Absolute Neutraphil has only been over 2000 one time in 2 1/2 years.  Also my MCH and MCV show that my blood cells are not normal shape or color.  In this next 8 weeks (roughly 60 days) I plan to change a couple of things.

  1. 8 g Curcumin per day.  That is 6g from Doctor’s Best with Bioperine and 2 g from Doctors Purest without Bioperine.
  2. 500 cal per day from coconut oil and or full fat canned coconut milk
  3. horseradish each day (supposed to help UTI’s and I had 6 or 7 last year)
  4. 1 1/2 c salad of dark leafy vegetables
  5. focus on other vegetables
  6. meat kept down to about 4-5 oz per day
  7. have sauerkraut and continue probiotics

exercises:  10 situps, pushups, deadlifts, squats

breakfast: smoothie- with 1/3 can whole fat coconut milk, about 10 frozen blueberries, 1/4 c raw walnuts,

green tea with coconut oil – 1/2 as much stevia as usual

lunch – Burger king salad with some of chicken taken out.  I made a salad dressing from horseradish, mayo & vinegar

afternoon – green tea with coconut oil – no sweetener

few almonds.

dinner – 4 oz steak & salad with homemade horseradish salad dressing

1/2 oz pecans

ketones were only 1.3 – the only thing I can think is that I took a Methyl B 12 chewable and it had xylitol in it!  Glucose was 103 which was surprisingly high and really the only thing I can think was the pecans or the methyB12.
