Take
a stand and be strong in what you believe or get a different
doctor.
I
went through breast cancer which included radiation. At the
time I wasn't educated enough to say NO but by the time I got
through the radiation and the doctor started talking chemo and
tamaxfin you can bet I had gotten a whole lot smarter!!
My
oncologist requested that I stop all antioxidants during radiation,
when I asked him why he told me because they didn't know how
they worked. I provided all my doctors with copies of info from
the HART book on all products I was using and info from several
sources backing up why I was using them. My
guess is not one of them read any of it.
I
made the choice to not stop my program during radiation plus
I added aloe vera, kelp, ginseng & St. Johns Wort oil topically
to the readiated area. I was the only person during that six
weeks to have no problems whatsoever ~ others were complaining
about being tired to the point of exhaustion, some had nausea
and all had terrible burned skin by the end of the treatments.
I had none of these problems and was back to work full time
through the course of my treatments.
I
give God and the wonderful herbs he has given us all the glory
~ he truly lead me down a better path.
Best
of luck in whatever choice you make, pray for guidance and CELEBRATE
HEALTH
