Yea, a second opinion couldn't hurt.
I might look into that.
I did admit that a lot of the other questions i had in store weren't really appropriate at this time as they were to do with chemo.
And no point in going down that road, if chemo isn't going to be used.
They may try radiation treatment first. But, who knows. I am not going to second-guess and predict the future, no point.
I've been giving my mind a break from everything over the last 3 to 4 days.
It's just a waiting game right now. Another waiting game. As if i haven't had a few of those lately.
I did have a nurse in Oncology dispel a lot of my trepidations and fears about the side effects of chemo though.
She mentioned a guy who is 30 and has testicular cancer and he is in his 3rd treatment now. With no hair loss, gaining a few kilos and doing really well apparently.
Like i said in a previous post here, the side effects described on web sites and pamphlets and written material are general only. Not specific to an individual's case.
Of course i realise that chemo plays different games with different people.
Bring on next Wednesday, for round 2!
And treatment path.
