Colleen Young has given you some great information and guidance. There are many supplements that the Mayo Clinic team can recommend that have shown promise on helping immune system and beneficial to patients and their specific health issues.

Mayo Jacksonville does have the Intergrative Medicine Program. They also have a Cancer Center that if you choose can coordinate your cancer treatment and care. This is at Mayo Jacksonville I cannot comment personally about Phoenix and Rochester offers.

You can do on Mayo web sites and review the programs. Colleen has provide that link. I did see Integrative Medicine at Jacksonville Mayo and was offered by the cancer center to have me join that program also. Mayo is just a great medical facility that I wish all had opportunities to have access to.

I see some discussion with HPV virus and cancer. Once you have HPV (per my Mayo Dermatologist not me) and my Mayo PCP, once you have contracted HPV it does not go away. Most (again by my Mayo PCP) HPV virus remain dormant and pose no problems to most. Sometimes it can become active and show up from injuries, sores, etc. I was shocked to learn my Squamous skin cancer could have been caused by the HPV virus.

I wanted to treat it but was told the way to treat it was to prevent it with the vaccine. There is not a vaccine to take once you have it. Working on immune system staying strong and good health is what I was told to work on.

I then read on poster saying he had discussion a squanmous skin cancer with his dermatologist that he had developed after radiation treatments. He was told that the immune system can be affected by reaction of body to radiation damage to body.

I had never heard this, nor told this by any of my Mayo doctors. Then I remembered I got my squamous cancer in a non sun area right after I finished my 30 rounds of radiation treatment. I have no idea of the connection and have no medical or professional knowledge to say one thing or another. I just wish the HPV virus vaccine was around when I was growing up and availabe to take.
