It is all very interesting and, as you say, some doctors simply don't think stress has anything to do with cancer at all.
Yes, belief in one's medicos and how we relate to them is a key factor in deciding treatments etc.
I think of how long Tamoxifen has been around (20-30 years ?) and it still causes other problems - why, oh why haven't the chemical companies come up with something in it to prevent all the side effects ? (Probably the long list of medications BC patients need means more dollars for them, eh ?).
The mind IS a poweful thing. I get peace from "Time" performed by Sir Laurence Olivier which I have on an old single record (!!!). If you cannot find the words, send me your email address via a private message and I will send them to you.
I hope you are having a good day. Keep well. Keep in touch.
Summer :-)
