Cancer Diagnosis

10/2/2017

0 Comments

 
Questions to ask your doctor when the diagnosis is first made:
  • How many tests support the diagnosis? Are there other tests that should be done? If so, when can they be done?
  • What is the exact name of the disease? How common is it? Does it generally strike one group of people more than another?
  • How slowly or quickly does the disease progress? If there are different stages of the disease, what stage am I in now?
  • How will the disease affect my ability to do the things I routinely do each day?
  • What can or should I tell family members or friends that they need to know right now?
  • Where should I go for information about my disease?
