Re: It Never Ends

MJO,
I am so sorry that your liver enzymes are causing you concern.

You are doing the right thing to be very cautious and get it checked out. Underscore...very cautious. I agree with others that we are on powerful drugs and sometimes our bodies send us signals that they are tired and have had enough for a while.

Others have posted about supplements that can help cleanze the liver. So, when you meet with your Onc. you might want to ask him about alternatives. (Milk Thistle comes to mind)

Please let us know the results......thinking of you....Lori
