EPO and other supplements
Hi Teo,
Yes EPO is very expensive.
My mother also takes many supplements, B-12, curcumin, probiotic, CoQ10 and IP6. She also takes fresh wheatgrass juice (similar benefits as Sun Chorella). This time 2 units of blood has seen her through 4 weeks instead of ususal 17-18 days. Hope this trend continues as she dislikes her visits to the hospital so often, even though they have a nice cheerful day care facility.
Wish your mother the very best.
