I'm going to add some comments to this that 4 years in practice
have provided - I know longer use Pau d'arco, due to some research that
indicated way more side effects were possible that I have previously
known. Also, there has been some good evidence in the past several
years that the chemo protocols don't work particularly well for
lymphoma, and the majority of my patients with confirmed lymphoma are
treated with pred and vitamin C only.
Thanks for the kind words, though,
