I have written on this site before but I am updating
my story in July 2008 to let you know how things
have gone for me. My original diagnosis was October
2004.
After reading some of the things others have gone
through I feel very fortunate. I am a
survivor of Stage III Multiple Myeloma (Bone Cancer).
...... April of 2004 the discomfort in my legs and
back accelerated, but with my husband having to have
a second surgery, I put it to the back of the
burner..... By September I could hardly
move, constant pain, exhaustion, etc. In
July and August I visited the doctor, and on my
second visit the doc found really abnormal blood
work but just 'kissed' it off as unknown. In
September same result only blood work was
worse.
....... a week later met my Oncologist, a lovely
lady called Dr Forsythe. She did a bone
marrow test and told me I had cancer (Mulltiple
Myeloma) I just sat there and cried. (I
will add here I am a retired Registered Nurse. My
last position was to work for a world renowned
oncologist and open a unit for him in a major
hospital. I also gave lots of chemotherapy!)
I agreed to have some radiation, only to Relieve The
Pain. I was started on enough pain killer to knock
of a horse and was still in agony.....the
doc presented information about POLY MVA.
My husband ordered it by overnight mail and
as I was leaving for the hospital he gave me 4
teaspoons twice. Then I had a bottle of
coca cola (No I did not drink soda's) in the fridge
and emptied it and filled the bottle with Poly. I
put it in my purse and off I went.
....... I was hydrated with IV's and scheduled for
dialysis.
24 hours later the doc took another test and noticed
my kidneys were better,
and decided to wait on the dialysis..
Each day they got better.(The fluids also helped)
then she said "Why do you think your kidneys
are improving" I said
"I don't know" but each hour I was awake I
drank 2 - 3 tsps of poly!
(no I did not tell the doctor or anyone as I
did not want it taken from me)
4 days later I was sent home. They
had already informed my husband I would not live.
Would not make it to Christmas. At this point I
could only walk with help, could not lift my arms,
my legs were swollen to 3 times their size and I
looked and felt like I was 100…. at that time I was
a young 60 years old.
When I went home in 4 days, the doc's were so
surprised......Thanksgiving eve was the last time I
had blood transfusions as I was starting to regain
my bone marrow. The radiation nuked my white cells
and platelets so I quit after 3 weeks and said NO
MORE! I refused the chemo!!!!
After 6 months of pain and suffering, Thanks
to POLY MVA I started to get my strength back, feel
better and my blood work greatly improved.(My
oncologist still can't believe it)
In March
my blood tests were normal,
my HGB being the best it has been in 5 years.

My brother, Larry, was diagnosed with
Multiple Myeloma in November 2005 and in
researching for answers for support of his body,
our family was led to
Poly-MVA. He is currently taking
Revlemed and Poly-MVA and
his numbers are improving. I
consider myself a “Cancer Conqueror,” being 6 years
cancer-free from colon cancer in May 2006. I
decided to take Poly-MVA for daily support
and as a preventative measure.
My energy is great, I feel wonderful and I am
using Poly-MVA to support continued health.
I appreciate AMARC Enterprises and the wonderful
work they are doing to support people facing various
health challenges....
9-13-2009
My brother has faithfully
taken the Poly-MVA since my last report. His
M Spike Protein continued to drop while on
the Poly-MVA and finally reached 0
on 01-07-08 and has remained at that level
since that time. He no longer requires
chemotherapy and is doing very well ......

My experience with
Poly-MVA has been very positive. I actually
heard about the product years ago in a
newsletter from Dr. Sinatra. I started
taking it, but only small amounts
at that time since I did not have actual
myeloma, only the markers for it.
In July 2005 my lab tests came back positive
for Multiple Myeloma.... I was put on
Melphalan and Prednisone.
I did a series of cycles along with Zometa.
My proteins came down and my oncologist took me off
all cancer meds for a number of months. The only
side effects I have ever encountered are foot
neuropathies and fatigue.
There was no hair loss and no nausea(because of
Poly-MVA). When my proteins started
to go up again, I went back on
chemo, this time Velcade
and Decadron. I had been on that
for a number of cycles, and since last May, I have
once again been off all cancer meds.
My oncologist does not say I am in remission, but
does say I’m pretty stable. Every
six months I have bone marrow punch, full body
x-rays, 24 hr urine drop and blood work. When I am
in treatment, I have lab work weekly, I will see my
oncologist in early February and at that time
he may put me back on chemo depending on my
tests. This time it will still be
Velcade, but by injection once a week.
I use Poly-MVA daily and
can’t imagine going without it ......

After a period in which I lost 25 pounds in
about 2 months, and was feeling tired all the time,
I went to see my Family Doctor in July of 2009 with
blood test results. He didn’t like what he saw, and
referred me to an Oncologist.
After more blood tests, a bone marrow
biopsy, and X-rays, I was diagnosed with Stage 1
Multiple Myeloma in January of 2010,
and the Oncologist gave me the “most likely
scenario” of 6-9 months then I’ll need to take
Revlimid, then about 6 months later a possible stem
cell transplant.
I did not like what I was hearing, so I talked to
some folks and checked the internet to find out more
about MM.
A friend of mine had been
told about PolyMVA and suggested I look it up
on the internet.....
My first shipment of Poly arrived in March
of 2010. For the next two years, up to and
including the current time frame, I take the
recommended amount. During all this time, of course,
I was visiting my Oncologists every three months, or
more often, depending upon their schedule.
My “numbers” stayed ........ steady for the past two
years – no Revlimid, no stem cell transplant.
About 6 months ago both my
Oncologists agreed that I should have gotten worse,
but didn’t, so they changed my diagnosis from Stage
1 to “Smoldering” Myeloma. They couldn’t/wouldn’t
say why I was so steady and not getting worse, but
they did say, “Whatever you’re doing, don’t
stop”. So I won’t.
I told them I was taking
PolyMVA, and they asked for more info in it.
I referred them to the web site.
So here I am, 2 years of Poly MVA, my
numbers continue to be steady, and feeling fine,
getting ready to celebrate the 70th anniversary of
my birth in May. I’ll stay with “PolyMVA and
friends”, and the no sugar regimen.

Poly gave me a feeling of well being
within a few days.
I tool Poly for over 6 months but the cancer was
causing severe nerve damage. I got to a point that
I could not walk and went to the emergency
room.....
When I finished the chemo,
I went back on the poly.
It started
healing the nerve damage within 2 weeks,
and has continued to heal the damage much faster
that it would have without poly.
I believe poly has kept my cancer in
remission, when doctors told me I would
have no breaks, but would continue to get
worse until I died.
The doctors told me repeatedly there would
be no remission.
Each month I went for checkups and bloodwork,
the cancer had not started up again.
The doctors don’t understand how I have gone
so long with the cancer not coming back

My wife, Susan at age 68, diagnosed with stage III
Multiple Myeloma Aug. 17, 2008, after being rushed
to the hospital with what we thought was a heat stroke,
dehydration, and a 104 temperature.
Test results showed she had a life threatening staph
infection throughout her system as a result of bone marrow
cancer which had destroyed her immune system. That
was our introduction to Multiple Myeloma, an insidious
decease that we had never heard of.
The Doctors told us there was no cure for MM,
but with the latest Chemotherapy treatments followed by
either a stem cell or bone marrow transplant,
survivability would be 2-3 years.....
Sue started her treatments with a combination of
chemotherapy drugs (Velcade +Revlimid +Dexamethadone)
at the SCCA in Dec. 2008. She continued these treatments for
the next 8 months with good results.......
Aug 7, 2009, one year after diagnosis, Sue underwent an
Autogolus Stem Cell transplant at the University of
Washington which was expected to give her 18 months of
remission. Sadly, she relapsed after 2 months
and was restarted on the chemotherapy (Revlimid) for
the next 2 months with negative results.....
I had read Suzanne Somers book, Knockout,
about
alternative cancer treatments which included Poly MVA......
Sue started taking the Four Corners Protocol on
January 20, 2010 at the recommended dosage, in her
case, she was taking 1 Tbsp of PolyMVA every 6 hours.
Six weeks later, Sue had her
first tests since stopping all Chemotherapy
and taking only the PolyMVA and
Four Corners Protocol.
The results were stunning.
I will never forget the moment her Oncologist
entered the room with the test results wearing a
big smile and proclaiming Sue his "wonder woman."
Both the Kappa Free Light chains and the Benz Jones
protein had declined dramatically. When I told him
about the PolyMVA , his comment was
"just keep doing whatever you are doing and I will see you
next month."

In June 2010, I was diagnosed with Multiple
Myeloma (Smoldering).
After all my lab test and consulting with a
specialist at the University of Chicago, my
doctor said I didn't need any treatments as of now,
because it was (smoldering)
just the beginning. I had a hard time trying to
decide to do nothing, so after my own research &
reading the book "Knockout" by Suzane Somers,
I choose to try the PolyMVA.
I started in July 2010 & began the loading
dose of 8 tsp a day....
It
(PolyMVA) has helped my energy levels
which really helped. I will continue taking PolyMVA
and will increase my dose if my levels get too high.
I am not 100% sure of the Poly keeping my MM levels
down, but I feel very positive its helping some. I'm
feeling pretty good and positive it will not
let this cancer get me.
At 57 I want to enjoy my 2 wonderful children &
grandchildren and be able to help my elderly
parents. I've retired after 35 years of employment &
enjoying life to the fullest. I would
recommend Poly to others! ....

| (My experience using Poly-MVA
the last 15 months) |
| |
I was diagnosed with
end stage multiple myeloma in October 2007.
I began chemo in November and a
stem cell transplant in February 2008. I
slowly recovered strength and energy.
In March 2010 lab
test began to show a rise in cancer protein
in blood and urine. My doctors were encouraging
another stem cell transplant, but I felt I would
rather take my chances with the cancer rather than
go through recovery of another stem cell
transplant.....
I started doing a little
research on my own and
Poly-MVA and friends
(other recommended nutritional and detoxification
supplements)
seemed like the best alternative method
I could find but the cost was prohibitive.....
I didn’t actually
start it until September 2010; at which
time my oncologist insisted I must start
chemo at least. I did not want to start
chemo either because it made me feel so bad.
I wanted to just try the Poly
and friends. He would not consent.
I considered removing myself from his care and
proceeding against medical advice. But I consulted
with Gary Matson.... He convinced me that It would
most likely prevent the side effect of chemo
and it has the tendency to
protect my good cells
and
aid the liver to
get rid of all of the cancer cells the chemo
was killing more quickly. It did work that
way.
..... My oncologist warned me
to not get my hopes up. It would never be 0.
But by March of 2011
their tests could not detect the cancer
protein.
The tests had the
same results in June and the oncologist
agreed to let me discontinue chemo.
September’s test
results were still negative for the cancer
protein.....

I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in
2009 after several years of medical tests
and doctor’s visits trying to find a diagnosis.
Initially when I was diagnosed it was
recommended to me that I take Thalidomide
as this was the chemotherapy drug that the
oncologist felt was the “gold standard” for this
disease. I had heard about this drug before and
did not want to take it due to the side
effects of this medication......
After the evaluation I was not satisfied with his
recommendations and I then scheduled an
appointment at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville,
Florida.
I was assessed by one of the physicians there who
had many years’ experience working with Myeloma
patients, so I decided to begin treatment there. He
told me that I had stage I MM and
he began treating me with Revlimid
and Dexamethasone.
I began this regimen after having my stem cells
harvested and banked at the Mayo Clinic for future
use. I was
not able to continue the Dexamethasone due to my
hypertension and cardiac arrhythmias.
I did continue to take the Revlimid alone for
approximately three years. My M-Spike became very
low and the doctor decided to try me without any
medications. I was able to stop taking the
Revlimid in 2012 and was able to
stay off any chemotherapy medications until
2018.
I
first heard about Poly-MVA in 2013
when I read about it on the Internet. I was looking
for some supplement to support me so that my
condition would remain stable
without taking any medication.
I called AMARC initially and spoke with Toni there.
She was very knowledgeable about Poly-MVA and
encouraged me to try it and I am happy that
I did.
I began taking it on and off initially at 4
teaspoons per day and then 2
teaspoons per day. I felt that it
gave me energy as I was feeling weak at the time,
it also
gave me a general feeling of well-being,
and I was able to take it without problems
or conflicts with my other medication and
supplements, since I have other medical
co-morbidities.
During the time that I was taking the
Poly-MVA
my M-Spike went to 0
and
this is the only time that I have had a 0 value for
the M-spike since being diagnosed with
Multiple Myeloma .....
