Bronwynn, hi,
BC experience here: I can remember my affected breast was incredibly tender
and swollen during and post allopathic treatment. My memory is terrible,
but I do recall waking up a couple of months into the BP and realising it no
longer was swollen and felt normal for the first time in nearly two years.
I also would like to put my two pennies worth in too; remember that this
group is no different to any other group of people, we (me too) only let you all
know what we want others to know. Each person's idea of 100% compliance is
different. We also try to be strong for each other, knowing that any
admission of a sneaky treat, an odd coffee (whilst still having success on the BP),
would send everyone else grabbing for the milk chocolate.
Before everyone starts advising me not to veer off the diet, I am not. I
just have my own interpretation of it. Which is very strictly adhered to.
Except for the occasional rest for my liver from the FOCC mix and one coffee
once a week. Which I did not enjoy this morning as all those wonderful mails
kept reeling through my head about the poison it's doing.
The point I am trying to make, is each person interpretation of the diet is
different, just as some supplement, which is not supportive of the protocol.
Further, (sorry); and I am sure you know this already, with breast cancer
you should avoid dairy, with the exception of the organic cottage cheese. I
have found some wonderful, and quick recipes in the Jane Plant book.
Hope you find this relevant B.
Michele
