be sure to let her know that a long-standing case of fibrocystic breast disease like that will most likely not be cured in a month or two, she's in it for the long haul. There is also most likely scar tissue that will not go away... She can also expect periodic bouts of breast pain while the cysts are breaking down. I experienced this and many others have reported the same. Sometimes the "pain" feels like a tingling or electrical energy, it's really kind of cool:)
I love posts like that, though, you are doing good work, Grizz:)
Perfect place to repost one of my favorite posts. Love the title!

"This paper reviews evidence showing Iodine as an antioxidant and antiproliferative agent contributing to the integrity of normal mammary gland. Seaweed is an important dietary component in Asian communities and a rich source of iodine in several chemical forms. The high consumption of this element (25 times more than in Occident) has been associated with the low incidence of benign and cancer breast disease in Japanese women. In animal and human studies, molecular iodine (I(2)) supplementation exerts a suppressive effect on the development and size of both benign and cancer neoplasias. This effect is accompanied by a significant reduction in cellular lipoperoxidation. Iodine, in addition to its incorporation into thyroid hormones, is bound into antiproliferative iodolipids in the thyroid called iodolactones, which may also play a role in the proliferative control of mammary gland. We propose that an I(2) supplement should be considered as an adjuvant in Breast Cancer therapy."
