My father in law has just found out that he has stage 3. He was 4 pints low of blood when in the hospital the calcium level was at 16 the told him he should not be living. That the calcium level should be 10. My husband said he does not want to know how bad it really is. I think someone need to know what to expect. They will not ask questions. Like is it any where else. He has to take treatments 2 times a week. The doctor told him he could not wait to get a second opinion. Something had to be done today.So he got his 1st treatment on he has not been sick yet. Will it take a few treatments before he get sick. Please help me understand.
