To answer your question Maria, I am ER 80% pos and PR 60% pos. Quite high. I have stopped the aromasin and am still taking the lasix and celebrex, problems are slowly disapating. I truly am looking for some natural way to stop the estrogen. Alaska and Gerri I will be looking into your suggestions. The only down side of the flaxseed, my onc had discurraged this early on because it was thought to encourage estrogen production. You hear so much for and against different things it makes you dizzy trying to decide what's best. Thanks again for all those who have replied.
