Has anyone stopped anatrozole because of carpal tunnel symptoms??

My medical oncologist for breast cancer gave me a list of herbs not to take and turmeric was on that list as there were some indications that it “triggered” HR+ breast cancer which is what I have. I find it very confusing that doctors give such different advice. On another note, I am sending you a big virtual hug.

I have looked on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) website and there have been no adverse effects noted there. I only take 1000 mg which is a relatively low dose. Larger doses can cause GI issues. Also looked on
breastcancer.org website and nothing negative noted. But bottom line, we have to mostly trust our doctors. It would be interesting to know what your doctor knows about turmeric and any negative issues. Stay well and live each day!
