Hi everyone. I just started reading a new book called "The End of Illness" by Dr. David B. Agus. It has to do with the intire health system, but there is a lot of information on cancer and how it all works.
Dr. Agus is a oncologist and has done a vast amount of reserch in the feild. He has a interesting way of looking at how we veiw cancer and its treatment. Theres also advice on how to talk to and work with your doctor.
I am about a quarter way through it now, and realy like what I am reading. But I will reserve my final judgement for when I am finished.
If nothing else the book gives good basic patient/doctor outline that I truly belive in. If you can't ask your doctor questions, and he is making all of your decisions with out informing you of your options, GET A DIFFERENT DOCTOR!
Just thought you might be intrested in reading it.
Especially the Newly Diagnoised members.
Mark.
