I had seen that article about vitamin E and pentoxifylline some time back, and I also was aware about vitamin E's link to cancer, at least when taking artificially high amounts. But, Charm, I think your main argument is that radiation fibrosis may be somewhat overcome, reversed if you will, and the study does point to that conclusion, EVEN if vitamin E has since been proven to be carcinogenic when taken in that way.

Lymphedema massage might be viewed as either worthless or next to it by a number of persons not only on this forum but medical personnel in the cancer field. Probably it is not recommended often enough by doctors, and that may be why.
I decided I would give it a try because I felt it was harmless enough and sounded easy to do. The lymphedema specialists I consulted believed that it helped prevent fibrosis because it increased circulation. My recent check up showed that I had eliminated all the lymphedema I had two months ago. Where I had some pitting then, now I have no swelling, just skin. Actually my surgical oncologist was surprised. I was too.
Yes, lymphedema can come back, but all I have to do now is maintain it. How can increased circulation, improved by exercise, massage, accupunture, or a combination be a bad thing for a damaged area? I don't think it can.
I like reading about what you have accomplished with your exercise despite having two separate radiation therapies over some of the same area. Very encouraging I would say. Thanks for sharing.
