Question about supplements....help
Hi ladies, I've read where a lot of you are taking vitamins and supplements and that you feel they are helping. I've asked my oncologist about this and he said absolutely no supplements. Now, I have a new problem. I've been diagnosed with Dry Macular Degeneration in my left eye and the specialist wants me to take something called "I-Caps" it's supposed to be a vitamin for the eye. I cannot have anything with beta carotene or vitamin "A" in it. The only cancer related drug that I am on at the moment is Herceptin. Do you think it would hurt anything to take these supplements? I want to do all I can to protect my eyesight.
Thanks for your input.
Hugs
