I don't usually have to do this, since usually OCF forums are scrubbed clean of scumbags pushing fake cures and bogus Mexican clinics, but I see we have been reinfected again so PLEASE do not fall for any miracle cures. Just because someone violates the rules and links directly to El Loco clinic does not mean that OCF has validated it or supports it. I was beseiged with well meaning offers of herbs, vitamins, and mexican clinic touts at first and it is tempting to believe that they can help - BUT THEY CAN'T. You are very vulnerable right now and I would hate to see you taken advantage of by a rogue OCF post.
As a practical matter, consider going with your boyfriend to his next doctor's appointment if he lets you as you will be helping him a lot by taking notes and remembering to ask the questions. Plus one of the most valuable things a female caregiver does is help spell out complications when the tough male patient replies; Everything's fine to the doctor when you know very well there is nausea, etc,
Good luck
