Hi Sam,
Wow, this is exciting. I wasnt sure anyone would respond to this group.How long have you been following vegan diet? I was diagnosed initially with large met in shoulder and several other bone regions and liver. I completed chemo, radiotherapy and surgery earlier in the year. I have found eating vegan food improved my digestion and kinder on my stomach. My energy has steady improved. As I have family to care for I have been slowly looking for ways of incorporating creative, simple, appealing meals from mostly organic sources where possible to allow it to become a lifestyle change for the whole family. At present I prepare about 3 vegan meals a week for the whole family. My family has a busy schedule so this is a challenge as preparing a lot of vegetables can be time consuming.
I take supplements under careful guidance of a naturopath who has experience with cancer. My naturopath does liveblood analysis which allows me to see the improvement objectively each time I go. I check herbs for any known interactions with cancer meds.
What symptoms did you get with lung mets?
