Hi Team,
I'm feeling very un PC and ungrateful just now. Cynical and fobbed off too. IF I am to continue taking these FUCKING DRUGS which have aged me TEN YEARS in 12 months and will continue to degrade my body, mind and quality of life - I want to know WHY???? The next time I see my oncologist, I'm going in with a script, and I'd like you guys to help me write it. Not one of my doctors has addressed the crux of the matter, which is - if I do not put up with these shit treatments, how much worse off would I be - in terms of recurrence? How long can I (not the general population - FUCK their stats - FUCK "we treat 100 to save 1") expect to survive, with or without endocrine therapy? Can my doctors please take the time to treat ME and analyse MY BC, instead of napalming us all as a JOB LOT?
IF they say "well, we just don't know..." THEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING!!!
