Hi Shadow

I understand your difficulty with trying to make these
big decisions. I can only give you my opinion, and it
is not based on any extensive research - I leave that
to others and hope that they'll let me know what I need
to know.

When I was diagnosed, I was immediately hoping that I
would not need chemo, not lose my hair etc. etc. After
reading about the nature of this beast, I changed my thinking
to "hit me with everything you've got". Chemo is not fun and I
still have some side effects from it, but I do not regret my
decision.

I'm sure you will hear from others on this site who will give
you a more "scientific" answer. Good luck with all of this -
you have come to a very good place.
