I am very curious about how other oncologist works. No one answered my questions,they were in a venting period, but I really would like to know the answers to some questions. Stay Anonymous if you wish. (lisa, maybe questions for your book)
1. When you go in for a tx, do you see your onc. before each one?
2. If not, who do you see?
3. Does your onc. request your scans?
4. Does your onc. request that you get your scans ordered from your primary care dr. or someone else?
5. What does your cancer team consist of:
a) breast surgeon, medical onc, rad. onc, and your reconstruction dr?
B) who else is included on your team?
6. If you are on adjunct therapy, ie: Rads, Chemo, Herceptin, Tamoxifen, etc. how often do you see your primary oncologist?
a)every 3 weeks?
b)every 6 weeks?
c) other?
7. When you finish your chemo/and or rads, when does your onc. schedule your first scan?
8, If you are on Herceptin or Tamoxifen, do you have any scans done on a routine basis? How far out are they after or durning treatment?
That's it, thank you for answering.
PS.. One of my doctors told me that to build your immune system up (to get the killer cells going) if you have one GREAT BIG belly laugh, to where you are almost crying or going to wet your pants it stimulates them and will last one week. So go have a good laugh and let these guys do there job and keep any new little cells at bay. ty k
