A large dose of cholesterol can lower the possibility of the recurrence of stroke. I don't know if it can be helpful on the breast cancer.

It is not yet confirmed that it can cause cancer. I think the source you provided might be sharing her opinion only.

I believe it is best to wait for your doctors feedback. Chao- :)
