Description

This book looks in detail at the pros and cons of the conventional treatments for cancer, with particular emphasis on surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. It also discusses the other mainstream options, from the use of lasers to smart drugs. No-one should opt for these treatments without a full understanding of the limitations and dangers associated with these treatments. However, since most people will assume that this is the only way to go, there is an extensive section on ways in which you can protect yourself. This book also takes a detailed look at issues relating to diagnostic tests-and suggests a number of tests that your doctors will not mention. It also looks at the particular issue of lymphoedema - a common consequence of conventional treatment.
