I am using Sacred Frankincense, a blend called Progessence (has really helped level me out emotionally) and Copaiba, I was recently switched from Tamoxifen to an AI (hate it so far) and have started using Idaho Balsam Fir and Citronella which seem to be helping, Insomnia from the AI so I "lavendered" up last night and slept much better. This has been a useful site for me: http://marnieclark.com/breast-health/essential-...

I use a whole combination on my feet, depending on the amount of pain. Frankincense is my favorite on my wrists. I have daily pain in my feet between 5-6/10. I get so depressed over the neuropathy that sometimes I have found tears running down my face and didn't even realize I was crying. Disabled by neuropathy. As if the BC was not enough.

I use Frankincense on my back near my rib with the tumor, so far so good after using it daily (along with my medical treatments), my cancer is seemingly going inactive!

I am finished with treatment. I use Frankincense on my breasts everyday now. What I have read is that it worked well on preventing cancer. You can do research on it. Tea Tree oils are good for nails. My oncologists told me to use it during treatment and it kept me from losing nails or having them turn black. Good luck. Lemon in water also helps to keep acid/alkaline levels even which is good.
