Re: Herceptin and supplements

Hello beautiful ladies! I was reading this and... I was wondering one thing... Since I'm taking Taxol/Herceptin therapy now... I'm taking Omega3 supplments also, but... On the bottle it says that it regenerates cell membranes. Herceptin should be blocking it, isn't it? So isn't Omega3 supplement contra-effect on Herceptine? Because maybe it unblocks signals that Herceptine blocks? Or not? I was just wondering, I am not microbiologist, but a simple homemade. Could anyone answer this to me?
I realize that Omega3 are perfect for protection. I was just wondering if it maybe is not good in combination with Herceptine... Thank you very much.
