My visit with the oncologist was about 5 weeks after my surgery. Most of that waiting time was OK, because I was just recovering from surgery, getting my strength back, and getting into my activities - yoga, the gym, trying Qigong, reconnecting with a few friends.
In the 4 or 5 days before the visit, I started to get really antsy. I was worried about what was going to get recommended to me. I had tried to find the doctor on "rate my doctor.com" or whatever it's called, and although she was listed, there were no ratings or comments at all. Hmm, was she that new? Had she just graduated? Or just moved to this city? country?
I had done my research on possible recommendations - chemo, tamoxifen, herceptin - and they all seemed dreadful.
