Agree to a degree, but I think they say it for our own mental health too @Vangirl. But sadly, a lot of the stuff that pops up when googled is 'old & outdated' & may scare the crap out of you as well .....
I would call most articles older than 3 years to 'not be current' .... maybe 5 years at a push ..... as there've been so many advances in treatment in the last few years & new drugs available.
It is just a shame that the 'most recent' stuff doesn't always show up first. And with so many different types of BC - they could even be reading up on the wrong one (til after they've had their proper pathology done .....) and be thinking horrible scenarios when it mightn't be anywhere near that bad?
