Hi. Just wondering if you underwent chemo and for how long. One doc wants to keep my friend on forever and another doc says that's not necessary. She is so confused.
Thank you.

@minpin3165, it is hard when a patient gets differing opinions from experts. Sometimes chemotherapy may be used as a "maintenance" therapy (forever), usually for advanced cancers.

Do you know what stage your friend's cancer is? What did she decide?
