She did a 3.5 hour assessment on me on my first visit to find out the state of my entire body health. The supplements are homeopathic and naturopathic so you would not be able to buy them in a store. She was an OBGYN in Europe for over 20 years and then emigrated to Canada and did not want to do the amount of schooling to get her DR. certification here, so she did the Naturopath training instead.

The biggest one I am taking is called Viscosan M, made by Helixor. It comes from Germany, has been used successfully there for over 30 years, and is a derivative of mistletoe. I take it by giving injections to myself in the stomach. This is supposed to kill the cancer cells, but not the healthy cells.

The second one is a pill called Artemisinin. It is also used to kill the cancer cells without harming the healthy cells.

There are a number of other ones that she has given me to boost the immune system and support the health of my other organs and systems, but you really need to be under the care of a licensed practitioner to get them.

These can all be taken safely along with your regular medical cancer treatments (radiation, chemo, hormone therapy etc.). The mistletoe is also supposed to help diminish some of the side effects from chemo etc.

I decided not to do the radiation or AI therapy because I did not want to put up with the side effects caused by them. It was a very difficult decision and I agonized over it for several weeks, but I am very happy now that I have decided and I feel great. I have no side effects from any of the supplements and the only other side effect I have had, is that my skin has turned a bit orange from all the carrot juice I'm drinking! 🙂

The whole cancer journey involves some very personal decisions and you have to do what you are going to feel right doing for yourself. What is right for me is not necessarily going to feel right for someone else. Best wishes to all!

Hello. Has anyone experienced shortness of breath and leg cramps on anastrozole or tamoxifen. I seem to be experiencing both on these meds.
I’m now trying tamoxifen and it seems the same side effects except hot flashes better.

Yes, I had leg calf cramps from tamoxifen. Potassium helped enormously! I also had hot flashes, mood swings with crying and rages, AND chemo- brain. Journal of Neuroscience. Mark Noble, PhD Sept. 17, 2013. Mental Fog with Tamoxifen is Real.

Hi. I am also on Tamoxifen and have shortness of breath and leg cramps. I increased my calcium with magnesium and it seems to help the cramps somewhat. How much pickle juice does one have to drink. Would apple cider vinegar also be good.

yes, I did. On anastrozole, Letrozole, and another. I gained a lot of weight on tamoxxifen and stopped all of them after 6 months.... I now eat WFPBNO, have lost 56 pounds, and have neverfelt better. I walk 2 miles a day, and am 4 moths due to my 4 years clearance. The drugs caused me terrific pain, I now have psoriatic arthritis and not able to use my fingers. The side effects were terrible.

Hi, yes, i was also getting bad leg cramps nightly. My doctor checked my calcium level and it was low.
I started eating more leafy greens and a supplement and that got rid of them for me.
I hope yours go away soon.

Hi , In my case , I just drink whats left in the jar when the pickles are gone , although sometimes I add cut up carrots or cauliflowers , and brine them for a week, to eat them . Just typed a search in "pickle juice for cramps" and many articles came up from runners and others . There's even a pickle juice brand of drink. Find it at a grocery or Am*zon, walm*rt , in 2 oz or 8 oz size . Vinegar was also good : " Pickle Juice Benefit #2: Vinegar Another reason why pickle juice can be a good post-workout for muscle cramps as a go to replenishment drink is because the naturally occuring calcium chloride and vinegar. Calcium chloride and vinegar present in the pickle juice can make sodium and potassium have a better uptake and absorption rate."
Have a look . Good luck , PJ

Hi Bluebird,

I have leg cramps, too, and take 2 Chelated Magnesium pills every day, which helps out a lot. Apple Cider Vinegar is good and has many positive properties, like alkalizing your body. I would recommend the "unfiltered" Mother's Apple Cider Vinegar, as it is very effective overall.
