Everyone’s story is different. I’m halfway through listening to “The Metabolic Approach to Cancer” by Dr. Nasha Winter and really trying to get at the underlying causes of cancer. I’ve (mostly) removed bad oils, eat organic wherever possible, and have almost eliminated gluten. My goal is to blend traditional approaches (surgery and radiation for me) with natural prevention. I’m a work in progress. My oncologist is not supportive of me shunning the AIs, but I have a 5% chance of recurrence and the AIs would take that to 2.5%, but at a large cost to quality of life. I don’t take anything but a statin and I just don’t want on that slippery slope of taking the AIs and then five other things to combat the symptoms- not to mention hair loss, etc…. I don’t take the decision lightly, but given all my research, I feel empowered I’m on the right path for me and my particular circumstances. (My cancer - invasive, ducal carcinoma - er+/pg+ is slow growing so chemo was inapplicable since it targets rapidly growing cells). No one can get us to 0% chance of recurrence so we all do the best we can.
