Re: crazy request for my oncologist?
Just for the record, my nurse did not say that stage 4 was treated as a chronic condition. I am sorry if it was misinterpreted that way. She said that stage 1, 2 and 3 were since there is such a good response and that even stage 4ers are doing better with treatment and living longer. I am so sorry if I offended anybody. I was only repeating what was said to me. I thought this was a support group.
