Thanks, Marjorie.
It is an interesting discussion and worthwhile for consideration. But I have to say, I thought this piece of truth was pretty lame, after all these decades of treatment:
"Why isn't sex discussed during treatment?
Question from Frustrated: In all the pamphlets they give you to prepare for a future with breast cancer, all the doctor appointments, all the survivor stories, I can't remember this subject ever coming up. Of course survival is the ultimate goal, but I think all aspects should be addressed! Why do you think this subject is bypassed?
Answer:
Dr. Leslie Schover:
I think that doctors in the oncology clinics and even the nurses and social workers are often so pressured to see as many patients as possible that it's hard for them to take the time to discuss things that aren't the highest medical priority. "
