Post lumpectomy two week visit with surgeon to discuss chemo, rad and hormone treatment
Hi, I am not sure if I should go in with a pile of questions or just sit and listen and then go home and do some research? Was there anything in particular people thought was an important question to ...
@viking1 basically just sat and listened. It is hard to ask questions until you have the whole program explained to you. I take the viewpoint that the medical peoples have your best interests at heart..
It is a lot to take in. Basically it just comes down to this you have cancer and the doctors are doing everything to cure you. I googled like mad after the facts and went to the library and got as many books I could. I also rang the cancer council for advice at times.
In my case I was happy with the treatment plan but not my surgeon.
I changed surgeons within three weeks of diagnosis.
