Many people avoid doctors,. I was one to or 15 years.

The medical establishment is traumatizing. Doctors are sometimes horrible humans. Fortunately that's rare, but I found a few. Medical doctors don't really spend time with us to explain fully what is happening. Most of what I know about my cancer came from PubMed then ask the doctor his opinion

I'm glad you found this forum. It's been very good for me.

I too had some bad experience with doctors. I'm very thankful we have the forum and each other. I also do research online to learn about my cancer.
Your comments, sharing your experiences and feelings often eased my anxiety
and worries and helped me understand my symptoms and deal with this disease.
The forum has been my best support system. We hold each other up. Thank you all for your
contributions.
