Ditto on the reishi mushroom to raise WBC's

Even when I was on chemo back in 1998, I did the reishi mushroom and it worked for me...just one note...once you are off blood-lowering types of chemos and just on Herceptin by itself...you might want to discontinue the reishi mushroom daily doses...eating mushrooms or an occasional drop or two is probably ok, but you do not want to find your self in a position where you are raising the WBC's either as there are some concerns about increasing cancer risks...

fyi,
Gina
