Re: Gemzar & Herceptin

Karen,

I'll be interested in the effect of the glutathione infusions you're having. Again, I personally know someone who is on Herceptin and Letrozole like me and was diagnosed with multiple liver mets initally seven years ago. She takes a whey protein called Immunocal (which has glutathione precursors) everyday as well as other supplements and her scans are clear and her TMs low. I, unfortunately, have a problem with dairy, so I don't know if I'll go back on it because I did try it for awhile, cutting back on the amount because I'm super-sensitive to everything.

I absolutely believe that we need to keep our immune systems strong!

Love,

Caroline
