Thanks for the link goops. I found it quite interesting. Haven't heard of flax seed either. What it is for anyway?
Saw my onc this week and was complaining to her about body aches and moods swings since starting my AI. Apart from Glucosamine, it was suggested I try early primose oil. I am ER+, and the onc is very particular about hormone additives in complimentary therapies. So if she is correct if appears there is no problem taking GLA.
