My Sports Nutritionist (who I have been very happy with throughout my treatment) is highly recommending that I get some IV Vitamin based therapy to help with my recovery. In fact he would like for me to do two treatments a week for the next two weeks. Please note that he says this is for recovery purposes only, not to eliminate any future cancers/problems/etc.

I just finished my last rads a week ago today. I was one of the lucky ones as it did not hit me as hard as the vast majority. My gut it is that much of it is due to:

no chemo,
the latest IMRT/IGRT kit at Sylvester,
my physical/mental shape going into it
My diet during the treatment
plus just got lucky?


Has anyone had any experience with IV Vitamin treatments? If so, I would appreciate your advice as well as any positive/negative experiences.
