    I had radiation in 2005 and just had a bialteral mastectomy although I do much as i prefer natural medicines and indulge in them.

    I haven't found a good (effective) natural treatment for the necrotic wound on my post radiatin side that has still not knitted over a month out of surgery.

    i also want to fight the encapsulation that is happening on both sides.

    any suggestions??

    i was er positive, and indulge in flaxxseeds and brevail in place of hormonal medications (also a lot of other things, i'm somewhat well versed in complemetary treatments but i'm out of my league here, evidentally, as nothing seems to be working).

    Have you tried Bromelain (primarily for inflammation) and Arnica (for healing)???  I used both before and after my surgeries and had very good results.  Best wishes

    thanks, rubyt, i am a bromelain addict, lol. it really helps my lymphadema. and i did arnica before and after surgery. 

    i'm also taking l-glutamine, a good e, a good a, c, chromium and juicing, and some basic chemopreventives: green tea, turmeric, mushroom extracts, etc.

    and i am doign hyperbaric.  the problem is tht none of this seems to be working.  i am at a loss.

    Try colloidal silver it may help, certainly has helped my brother in law who is a quad, his spasms have caused wounds on his right heel from kicking the foot rest of his wheel chair.

    Good Luck
