Guest guest Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 <<..just because you see a Oncologist does not mean you have to have chemo.>> All along my concern has been more with the chemo than with the surgery because I have some other weak spots that could be compromised by the chemo. The liver, for example. But now that I apparently have a good surgeon--one who asks and answers the right questions--I'll make my concerns known and expect that he and the chemo guy will do their best. I just want it understood that I want the liberty of stopping anything that makes me feel compromised, and I want telephone access. Communication. These days my experience with doctors is that they have conspired to disappear behind a curtain of unavailability. They do not answer phone calls anymore. How can one have a doctor patient relationship without communication--or with the inevitably faulty communication of a filtering of information through a front desk girl with a high school education?

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Because cancer mets so often hit the liver I would want the chemo follow up. I am sorry to hear of the Hepatitis C but glad that it has so far stayed away from the liver. Congratulations on 25+ years of sobriety!! As with that if you Let Go and Let God I believe you'll see miracles! God Bless you Narice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
