Sorry to hear Stu, as everyone else has said, hope the diagnosis is wrong. I don’t know the Count, unfortunately. I am kinda into natural remedies when modern medicine fails. If you wish to try some, I have two for you... alkaline water (ph above 7) and apple seeds. Drinking akaline water raises the ph in your body and apple seeds have anti cancer properties. Eat the seeds from up to 5 apples daily, you must chew them first. I usually eat them from red delicious but they all should be the same. They don’t taste good but you will get used to them. I eat them for prevention so I can’t give concrete evidence that it will help you, just of what I have read.
