主题:【引文】自然心药 by Rachel Naomi Remen 的中文介绍 -- 车城游子
I won't recommend the TCM therapy now because there is no solid evidence that can prove the sole TCM treatment could control the BC. However, emerging researches do indicate the TCM antagonize some side effects of chemotherapies such as hematologic and gastrointestinal effects and nephrotoxicity. Some other side effects, such as the fatal allergy and the heart failure caused by paclitaxel and ADM can hardly be helped by TCM alone.
I don't know what chemo-medicine your friend has been given, but I am glad she is quite resistant to whatever side effects so far. As long as she can hold, she should stick to the chemo. Certainly, TCM could be a nice back-up when the recurrence occurs. Recurrence, unfortunately, is quite usual to most of the patients, and at this stage, the side effects are more frequently seen and are harder to be overcomed.The TCM would turn out to be the ace in the hole at that time.
One thing I also want to remind is that you need to make sure the doctor has done the chemo-therapy sensitivity test. The purpose of the test is to select the most sensitive medicine to the BC of your friend.
Be optimistic and be happy. Optimism sometimes does make the difference.
