Re: Cancer centers of America

Thank you for that info! I am being treated at DF as well. I feel like I need a second opinion about the herbs/supplements but I want to try everything. Yes, I am on Herceptin and Perjeta. Sorry about the vague profile, I am really confused about what is left of my cancer, they are not sure what is scar tissue and what is cancer.
I have another question about Herceptin and Perjeta, so Im going to start another thread. I am going to look into that book. Thank you
