When I was diagnosed with lung cancer, I went through a period of obsessing over “how long do I have?” I scoured the Internet for information about prognosis. Over and over, I turned up stories about people dying from their first dose of chemo. And every time I was able to discover where this happened, it was in the UK. I don’t think they know how to properly administer the drugs. They seem to still be in the trial and error phase.

Cancer treatment is very complicated. If you’re diagnosed, do your homework and find professionals who know what they’re doing.

“I don’t think they know how to properly administer the drugs. They seem to still be in the trial and error phase.”

Hav you considered that they DO know how to administer them and that this is the desired outcome? Chemo is comparatively cheap compared to new exotic treatments.
