Chinese Herbs - Have you heard of these?

Kim, I'm not familiar with these. If I were you I'd check out what each herb in each pill contains and then go from there.

Kim,

I'm trying to remember things I avoided during treatments and my fuzzy brain isn't letting me recall.  I think maybe I recall that I was told to avoid anything rich in antioxidants during radiation, for example.  In general, antioxidants are beneficial, but things are different during treatments.  The treatments are trying to zap the undesirables, and some desirables are casualties along the way.  So if you're taking something that bolsters cell resistance to invasive entities, in short, that could diminish the very treatment you're pursuing.  I'm sorry I don't have something more definitive, and my rads were 2 years ago, and things are changing all the time.   

The point I'm trying to make is to question your choice to pursue traditional and nontraditional at the same time.  That could wreak some unintended havoc in your system.  Now I'm thinking about people on cumiden who are not allowed grapefruit.  Chemo is way more powerful than a blood thinner. In my experience, our medical professionals don't seem to know enough in the areas of their training.  A traditional doctor is going to know even less about alternative treatments.  More isn't always better.
