Initial consult with Oncologist
When my oncologist was going through the online decision making tool for chemotherapy (has anyone else done this?) and then wrote down the list of chemo side effects, with their combating medications...

Hi T-Bird, I also found it very helpful to go through the on-line decision making tool. The statistics for my situation were even more compelling, changing my disease-free survival at 10 years from just 33% to 81% with Chemo and Hormone treatment. I think it really helped me to have a good attitude towards each treatment and I became focussed on how to help myself cope as best as possible rather than spending too long wishing I didn't have to go through it all. Sounds like this is the direction you are heading too. It is awful and scarey but you do get through it and life can be very, very good again. The support on here can really help too. Take care and I hope that everything goes as well as it can for you. Deanne xxx
