Welcome to the Lyme page -- I am sorry to hear about your friend's illness.  I agree with grdner's comment above, that the Lyme page doesn't have information on this and a better source is likely the cancer community on MedHelp.

I just went to that page and found some possibly useful post, including these parts of posts that may lead you to some other comments and posts:

I am sorry for the condition your friend finds herself in, but I have no information on your question.  You might try posting it on one of the cancer communities as I'm sure the folks there would have more input.  Best of luck to you both.
