I'm a couple of weeks away from finishing radiation therapy and know I have to see an oncologist to discuss the dreaded recommended anti-hormone therapy. Does anyone here know of an integrative oncologist in Michigan? I'm using University of Michigan CCC for radiation therapy and have an appointment with one of their oncologists, but as I sit here pondering that, occurred to me that I would much rather work with somebody who understands supplements and complementary medicine that may help alleviate side effects. I have been to a naturopath who has recommended all sorts of supplements, but not sure how these will interact with aromatase inhibitors.

Thanks for any info.

    HI SOS1125, I have read your reports from past posts and know you had a 30 oncotype and were undecided if you should do chemo or not. I am in the same position with a 1cm, stage 1a tumor, er +, PR- and her2negative, grade 2. I know you went to Dana Farber but were getting other opinions. What did they tell you regarding chemo and what did you decide to do. I am also undecided about chemo and it would be helpful to hear what recommendations you got.
