Vitamins and supplements
Is there a reputable fact sheet available for vitamins and mineral supplements, including possible benefits, that are ok to take alongside hormone treatment? I have just recently started taking Tamox...
The Memorial Sloan Kettering website is very helpful so thank you, ladies.
The best thing is to discuss all options with one's treatment team (GPs often know very little so just hate anything they don't prescribe). Even then some of the oncologists are not up with everything as research changes things regularly.
Chemical companies push their products and the health food industry pushes theirs. After all, if they can stuff you up with one thing they then guarantee their own future as they have something else ready to treat the next issue.
Listen to your body, too, as you know it best.
