Oestrogen based breast cancer and side effects from medication, mainly Cystitis.

Hello Fireplace

Sorry to hear that you are having such a pesky time with the cystitis. I am not speaking as a medically qualified person, but to a lay person it sounds like your oestrogen inhibitors might well be playing into this. I am sure that I read somewhere that we should avoid things like lavender oil which contains  phyto-oesrogen, so I don't think I would be consuming anything that is likely to make oestrogen once consumed it. I read on here that a lot of ER positive ladies avoid all dairy so that they are not taking in any oestrogen.

However, you would be best tomask your onc team.

All the best

Hi , Thank you so very much. I am so pleased you have found relief and I will certainly look into all you have listed.  I will check out what the doc will prescribe tomorrow .

Your BC nurse may have samples to try,mine did.

That`s interesting thank you. My next checkup is not until May but will look into it. 

Give them a ring,my samples came in the post after a telephone consultation.

I am totally deaf so can`t ring but I will email them , thank you .
