Smile Reishi mushroom extract

Hi Vicki
You may find it helpful to take some reishi mushroom extract..it will raise your white blood count and research shows it also helps the herceptin work better. Wait for 24 hours after chemo before taking it. I use Astra Forte which is reishi plus astralagus..it is called Immune Support and is made by Greenridge. I did this all through my 5 months of taxol and had no problems with WBC..(in fact my onc said my bloodwork was beautiful).
Regards
Jackie
