Hi Eric, thanks for the guidance. My dad also eats/drink as frequently as you do but I think I need to focus on protein part.

Cheryl, doctor has not started off Erbitux probably due to cardiac efficiency of 55%. In the meantime, I am also researching on BioMAb (Nimotuzumab) which has demonstrated good efficacy on Asian patients with less adverse reaction than Erbitux. I'll wait for a month to help my dad regain confidence and health before discussing it with the doctor.

I'll check the site that you had mentioned and I think you are talking about curcumin caplets, right? We Indians add curcumin (turmeric) in most of food that we cook!

Thanks for being there for me, wish I could meet each and everyone of you.
