Kim, welcome to OCF! My suggestion would be to gather all your medical records and go to a major comprehensive cancer center (CCC) for at the very least a second opinion. Hopefully you have one of the country's top facilities not too far from your location. Seems to me that you have been dealing with this for a long time, its time for a change and get a fresh set of eyes and opinions on your situation. If you need the CCC list let me know and I will post it.

As far as boosting your immune system, check with your family doc and see what they would advise. This can be especially important as some supplements may not agree with treatments. For me, Im constantly washing my hands and using hand sanitizer. Avoiding crowded places, getting the flu and pneumonia shots can help too.
