I was looking for some opinions on the supplements that I am currently taking. I know that some of you are well researched on this topic and I value your opinions. I second guess myself often and am trying to find peace with this disease. Faith in My Heavenly Father has helped tremendously with that peace, but every once in a while I get in a panic. Like now.....
I was diagnosed 2/05 stage 3 er+pr+her2+++ at the age of 31. I am in the middle of radiation tx. I did AC then taxol/herceptin. Now I do herceptin every 3 weeks until May (I am interested to see what Michelle does as to if she goes for more that a year of herceptin). I take CoQ10, a multi vit, spirulina, green tea, and turmeric. I am thinking about taking Dr. Weil's immune support formula with Astragalus root and proprietary mushrooms. After rads. I am to start tamoxifen (thinking about getting ovaries removed this summer for AIs instead of tamox).
Thank you all for your support. This site and its members are priceless.
