Flabghasted is not the word -- Flaxseed miracle!

I am on Arimidex, with all ER, PR, HER2 positive. My onc specifically advised that I stay away from soy extract and phytosterols, such as flaxseed. Now this Canadian article specifically claimed the miracle of flaxseed to reduce tumor and reduce HER2 overexpression. How can I cope with these two directly opposite, but so critical and exciting, news? Anyone can shed scientific, not just "your own personal choice" type comments? I am so confused and frustrated. I know many of you share the same anxiety of wanting to know what to do.
