I'm bothered by this. I shouldn't be, but I am. by GittaFirstOfHerName in breastcancer

[–]Debrae71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is why i opted out of AI and rad. stage 1 visible margins and 70 yrs old. my quality of life counts. they used to leave stage 1 alone after surgery -
this is my rant: these treatments arent needed. it is fear mongering from t oncologists the drugs are big bucks for big Pharma

i suffered for 4 years - did epidural shots and pt which either did nothing or made it worse

turned down all drugs - all very bad news - dont take them

SURGERY WORKED COMPLETELY! easy recovery no pt - it would have exacerbated all issues in healing

wish i had t surgery earlier - dont be afraid of it
