Good morning

Newly diagnosed, no treatment plan yet. Praying for direction. Has anyone tried and/or considered naturopathic plans? What kind? Any results to report

    Good morning. I use a combination of allopathic and naturopathic interventions. I would not have omitted surgery, chemo, radiation, or tamoxifen given my particulars. I also would not have omitted Vitamin D, magnesium, melatonin, exercise, etc.

    I did not for one moment consider rejecting traditional treatment. I'm not fully comfortable with taking supplements, other than a multi-vit, because they are largely unregulated. I do have a regular massage, which really helps with bone aches. Other than that, I'm just going with the surgery, chemo, AI, and possible radiation route. Of note--I am at high risk for breast cancer due to 2 gene mutations, so I'm really giving it all I've got.

    Best of luck to you.
