Well I'm glad this post came up! I've been on turmeric for several months and it's stopped my IBS and helped my osteoarthritic knees (doesn't cure but provides relief). My surgeon wasn't interested in it but the anaesthetist got me to stop it before lumpectomy and then axillary clearance ops as it is a mild anticoagulant. I haven't started chemo yet so am a bit miffed that it sounds like I won't be able to take it. I have been buying it in bar form from QLD and it's potentiated with all the right ingredients. Turmeric Life is the website, interesting reading for humans and also for your fur babies! @melclarity I see what you mean ... need to discuss with oncologist the point of me swallowing all my vitamins and oils etc ... if there's any point whilst doing chemo. Hmph. I keep trying to fix what's broke!☹
