Chemo kills off soooo many good things that your body needs - that's why people get soo very ill when they have to go through it. I respect anyone who chooses to use it, but I also respect the ones who don't!
Have you ever been close to someone who has gone through Chemo? I have, my last husband. It was enough for even me to say that I won't ever have Chemo - and three different cancers run in my family!
The other thing to consider is that Chemo lowers the body's immunity - that's when Lyme really likes to come rushing in, so whatever Lyme survived would most likely really proliferate while the body is still trying to come back up to par. Kind of like the same thing that happens when people with TBI's take steroids! I really feel for those that need the steroids because of other conditions - like RA.
A worthy question though!!
