I think it would have been important to go into more statistical detail on the side effects. Especially considering how broad, debilitating and irreversible some of the effects can be. Not to mention the extent of the remedial treatments. I would have liked to hear what percent of patients experienced side effects that needed remedial treatment. And just as important, what are Disease Free Survival rates in terms of months or years? Also, any of these side effects can occur during or even after the use of these drugs have been discontinued! This should be expressed at nauseum. Are we playing poker with the hopes that the drug(s) treat the cancer progression as opposed to getting heart, lung or liver failure? I am a cancer patient and am disappointed that the dark side of these drugs are not expressed significantly. I'm not trying to disparage the use of these drug, however, for many years, drugs were approved to fight cancer that did more harm than good.
The only reason I'm still alive today (and feeling pretty good) is because of Dr. George. Thanks man.
Thanks for sharing your story with us, Scott! Dr. George is great! :)
