A Visit With The Radiologist - Thursday, December 24, 2009

Today, I saw the radiologist for the first time during treatment. I had given him my list of supplements to take during radiation as per his request. Thankfully, the only concern he had was over the 2000 mg. of Vitamin C and 800 I.U. of Vitamin E I am taking during the treatments. He reiterated that there is no proof that these supplements, being antioxidants, will hinder the effects of radiation. However, he still felt it necessary to mention to me that the possibility does exist. Then he said he would leave the decision in my hands. I promised I would talk it over with the naturopath, which I hope to do this week. I also need current bloodwork to determine if my digestive system is repaired to the point of absorbing B vitamins again. One more thing to think about in a list of many.
