Realistically, you won’t get drs to read anything you send them. They are totally overwhelmed with patient load, administration and ‘paperwork’ although today it’s done on a laptop.
Even if you sent them research articles from NIH and major cancer institutes, they would look at the title and that’s it.
Treatment for this disease is perilous - everything comes at a cost. When the dr or Np read me my rights about all the possible side effects of this or that I didn’t even listen….why bother? I read all about it already and I was focused on the cancer, all else be damned.
So whatever the ADT did to me, or whatever the radiation does to me down the line I am not gonna look for the ‘whys’ - I KNOW why. If there’s something I can do about it, I will and if not, it will suck to high heaven and I’ll just have to deal with it the best I can.
Radiation kills… So it can also bring on things less fatal - neuropathy, incontinence, secondary cancers, etc. After treatment, anything goes and you are pretty much on your own, since like a cracked egg, the damage really cannot be undone. Not fun to hear, but there it is. Best,
