Re: Vitamin D treatment may have potential to decrease rate and incidence of mets in

I totally believe that high cortisol is a big factor. For 2 years before diagnosis I experienced massive stress of the type that is with you day and night and interferes with most aspects of your life. It seems as if this in some way damages cells at a molecular level rendering them more vulnerable to malignant changes. I suspect when combined with some other factors including low vit d the scene is set for the development of bc.I also suspect that stress/cortisol in some way activates NF-kb which has been implicated in many cancers
