        I have been diagnosed with fibrocystic for awhile now but just recently been diagnosed with LCIS (lobular carcinoma in situ). While it’s not cancer, my specialist punched a bunch of numbers and factors in and I supposedly have a 1 in 5 chance of these developing further into cancer. While I was having biopsy surgery I was unaware that I was muttering to him that “I won’t take any of his drugs”, that “I’m all about the herbals”…. :face palm:

        I’m 44 and I don’t take any prescriptions. Only herbals and supplements. I’ve had extensive blood work done and everything comes out negative or within normal range.

        He is strongly suggesting I go on tamoxifen but I just cannot do it. There’s not much out there on the Internet, or that I’ve found anyway about women alleviating the fibrocystic condition or the LCIS. I have heard that in other countries, cannabis juice has been shown to even cure these conditions but moving out of the country isn’t an option. Are you aware of anything at all that I can be taking, or know of anyone that could give insight on this? I’m tired of having medications pushed on me if there are alternatives….

          I haven’t ever addressed this particular condition but I would address it the same way I would a more malignant issue.

          I’d also make sure I was eating a really great diet with little or no processed foods or simple carbs.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

            And be super anal about keeping GMO’s out of your diet.

              Are you in the U.S.? Cannabis juice is legal in several states now. Have you heard of Essiac tea? Some cancer survivors swear by it. Juniper berries have also been shown to shrink tumors. You would have to eat a lot, though. I don’t know if you live anywhere near a Juniper forest. Juniper berries also go well with wild game, like venison. 🙂

                Juniper and a lot are a tough one. Juniper is very hard on the kidneys in larger quantities.

                Chaparral is know to be anti cancer. Not sure if it is a cure though.
