Hi, I go to Rochester, MN as well. I was very fortunate to hear John Shin, M.D. at the Cancer Education Center, in the Gonda Building on April 2, 2019. The topic was Diet and Cancer: Does it matter what I eat, evidence-based recommendations for focusing on plant-based nutrition. It was very informative information on foods that fight breast cancer. Not sure he speaks too often but if he does go! A book that is extremely helpful to support Dr. Shins presentation is “How Not To Die”, by Michael Gregor, MD, FACLM founder of NUTRITIONFACTS.ORG. Discover the foods Scientifically proven to prevent and reverse disease. Chapter 11 is specifically targeting Breast Cancer. I find it very enlightening and gives me some control over my fight against Breast Cancer. Good luck and good reading?

I am meeting on July 6 with my oncologist at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. I chose a bi-lateral mastectomy for IDIS in both breasts, 2 tumors in each , grade 3 and grade 1. Lymph nodes were clear and margins were also. I am looking at nutritional options also. At 73, I really don’t want to go through chemo or heavy meds. I am a 25 year survivor of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and have been through the chemo and radiation. Praying for a good report on my hormone levels.
