Time is definitely one of the issues with reading any research. So much has changed in the last 30 years with BC (as with many cancers) that what we are reading may not apply to us. My onc told me last week that he believes in a few years that the profession will look back at treatment today as stone-age, as they do no for lung cancer and melanoma treatments of only 5 years ago - so much is changing. We are going to end up as someone else's statistics - I just hope that we are heavily weighted in the positive.
