Be sure to tell them you are on herbs as some interfere with chemo.

RE: Getting my strength back!

Hi all,

I am going to see the nutrictionist at my oncologists office, tomorrow.

What questions can you think of that I should ask? I heard that I should not

take multi-vitamins which have folic acid, while taking chemo therapy. Are

there other things? I am taking some herbs like euchanesea (sp?) and

anti-oxidants, green tea, etc. Any info would be much appreciated...chemo

starts this coming Monday.

Joann, what vitamins, etc. are you taking, and what dosage?

Thanks,

Gloria

I " m

taking Tamoxifen... being on it for a month now and haven't had any bad side

effects... well... no more periods but that is something I like. lol.. other

than that, I can't think of any other. I also take lots of vitamins and

antioxidants [super Blue Green Cell Tech Algae] [which my oncologist told me

I could take anything I wanted] My friend told me this antioxidant had

helped many women going thru menopause get thru without having the hot

flashes, mood swings...
