@sdbonniea123 A functional oncology nutritionist? That sounds fabulous! we sound very similar in temperament. I do not have any autoimmune issues but have had various stress related sicknesses over the years- ulcers, frozen shoulder, unexplainable rashes, just weird things when i am highly stressed. I am very intrigued by the nutrition angle and aim to clean up my diet. i have been mostly vegetarian for a long time, but its easy for highly processed foods to creep in. I want to eat a lot more raw, and since i have made this post i have grown more determined to avoid the blockers. I will not know what my stats are til i see the oncologist in a week, but i feel like i have more control than i imagine, and treatment is making strides all the time, and like you i think i will roll the dice for quality of life. This has been a massive wake up call and could lead to me being healthier than i have ever been. No room for error. I wish YOU all the best and i hope everything goes well with you. We can do this!

Hi, I am hoping this works with addressing all of you at the same time. Here goes, I had DCIS, but with twist of invasive carcinoma mixed in 2025! So I am taking Exemestane, hormone blocker, and going thru infusions of Herceptin, ( hercussi). I also am allergic to a bunch of stuff and you guessed it, chemo and now Herceptin. So, I am taking Propel a water supplement to counteract the hormone blockers. It has electrolytes in it. This keeps the side effects down for me. Little to no side effects with this. Now, it's the stuff I am taking to counteract the allergic reaction that is bugging me! Grrr, just doesn't end! However, the first infusion went well without the Benadryl and steroids. Hopefully we all can figure out what is going on with each of us. We all have cancer but it's reacting differently in all of us!! Why haven't they found an answer in 30years??? Anyways, it's a obvious answer. But, we should start asking for cures, instead of remedies that just take care of the symptoms. But, it's better than the alternative!! You know your body best do you research, and ask alot of questions, you should get answers and perhaps some answers to your questions. And yes, sometimes I don't even no the right questions!! It's all temporary, really!
