[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anyone else here working with a naturopath, or pursuing any complementary/alternative strategies? I've been doing a lot of work on trying to strengthen my immune system. I'm also taking anti-inflammatories to try and keep my systemic inflammation as low as possible.[/quote] I would be very very careful with alternative strategies. If you are doing it in addition to your regular treatments, then make sure your oncologist is on board. The real thing is most alternative strategies do not work. If they worked, they would be mainstream. The possible exception is cannabis, as (federal) research has been prohibited. What can work well is alternative meds to counteract treatment side-effects. For example, acupuncture is very effective with neuropathic pain. [/quote]
