Flori,

Tylenol is very hard on the liver and is really best taken once in a blue moon, not with any frequency or certainly regularly. I would toss that crap out and switch to Aleve. Tarte Cherry Extract also helps with pain and is an anti-inflammatory. One thing that really helps reflux symptoms such as yours is to purchase a powdered probiotic. Wegman's has a jar for children that is refrigerated and in powder form to be dissolved in juice or water. It is virtually tasteless. It was recommended to me by a naturalpath to take a 1/4 tsp 3-4 times daily in water. I would even put it in my water bottle that I take up to bed with me for those middle of the night heartburn attacks. This has cured my reflux and heartburn completely. It only returns when I have been off the powder and eat something with turmeric (great cancer fighter, but my gut just cannot manage without probiotic water!). The other helpful hint is to abstain from taking pills less than 2 hours before you lie down at night.

I am sorry to hear Kadcyla is such a bear for your poor body. Maybe that Grizzly will tame itself on subsequent infusions. I agree with Donocco about the Milk Thistle. Good stuff for the liver. Please keep us posted. When is your next infusion scheduled provided they permit you to receive it?
