I've walked this path and I am still here, and I am not supposed to be. Alternative therapy saved my ass so far, and it has been twenty years since the diagnosis, fifteen more than there should have been. I'm now aiming for at least thirty more. You have nothing to lose that you are not already going to lose. I recommend trying the veterinary therapy. I also hear that ground appleseed powder can work miracles. Definitely supplement with a full range of vitamins. A.B.C.D.E. and a good multivitamin to fill in the gaps. Also Ubiquinol - CoQ10 activated. That'll give every cell in your body a nice boost. Make sure it is "Activated." It comes from Japan. Eat lots of fresh vegetables, all the colors. Especially tomatoes, and root vegetables, onions and carrots. Eat organic proteins, grass fed meats, wild caught fish. Avoid all things feed lot. Avoid artificial sugars. Give your body the right fuel. Try to get as much sleep as you can. Rest is a weapon. Keep your mood positive. Watch funny stuff. Watch good guys win stuff. Moral is a weapon. Exercise, even when it's hard. Your body needs the adrenaline to help heal. Pain is a weapon. Outside, in the sunshine. Sunlight is a weapon. Just because the doctors say you are done doesn't mean you are done. They said the exactly same thing to me. Choose instead to live, and fight like hell to make it so. Willpower can reshape your reality.
