What Dosage Of Vitamin Supplements Is Advisable To A Breast Cancer Survivor?
I am a 67 year old female. I had breast cancer with surgery, chemotherapy & radiation followed by a maintenance drug, Aromasin that I took for 10 years. I feel that I m taking too many supplements that could be causing chronic health issues (facial & eye swellings). I was told by a pharmacist that the vitamins that could be harmful if taking too many are A, D, E & K. Can you tell me what the amounts of each that I should be taking from my assorted supplements? I feel I m taking too many. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
No need to take any vitamins only normal supplement with calcium and vitamin D3 would suffice. So many drugs are harming you more.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. B.dinesh
