Ok, I'll weigh in here with my opinion...For ME personally, I would never forgoe chemo to try something alternative. But I will use herbs, etc to complement chemo.

I am presently taking Iscador twice a week. I'm on Herceptin and Aromasin as well, NED for 4 months. My onc says to continue with what I've been doing.

The NIH is doing clinical trials on the value of adding Iscador (mistletoe) to chemo regimens, and herceptin, and is reporting a 40% increased response rate than the reported responses to chemo or herceptin alone. Iscador may have a synergistic effect.

Just like not everyone responds to every chemo, not everyone responds to Iscador. you have to see a skin reaction at the injection site, a little spot of red, in order to know that your body has a response to it.
