Hello Maria -
You have mentioned Milk Thistle.
When I had my big time liver mets attack, I went on this in capsule form. My med onc had no probem with this and I was on Taxol, Navelbine and Herceptin. Thistle is a supplement that cleanses the liver and blood of various debris. You can also get it in the form of herb tea.

I took the Milk Thistle caps all though my treatment and for several months aftewards. It did not seem to have any adverse effect on my treatment and gave me no side effects.
