Copper

Hi Chirley,
To decide if we should accept a treatment with severe adverse effects or live shorter with better quality of life is difficult. I told my doctor initially that I prefer a shorter life and won't accept treatment that will lead to severe nausea, tiredness and so on. I was 67 yo at that time and felt that I have lived a good life.

You are much younger and that will make a difference.

It is really you who should make the decision - your family don't know how the copper infusions are affecting you and want you to live as long as possible.

Good with a GP who is telling you the truth about your disease!
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
