The Thinking Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer is intended to empower patients go beyond the one-size-fits-all "standard of care"and make the decisions that are best for themselves and their loved ones. Because she has a research background, Dr. Maker was able to find a great deal of information that is not commonly known to patients. This information helped her make her own medical decisions, and it can also help you. This is the book she wished she had when she needed it.
You can use this book before your treatment to take charge of your recovery:
• Find the best sources of advice to help you make wise decisions
• Identify all your treatment options—their success rates and side effects
• Learn how to choose the best doctors and hospitals
• Discover how to use complementary modalities to increase the benefits of your treatment while reducing side effects
• Confirm and maximize your sources of support
You can use this book after your treatment to take charge of your remission:
• Help your body become resistant to cancer by managing your nutrition, supplements, exercise, stress, and exposure to environmental toxins
• Understand how to manage the major preventable causes of recurrence and metastasis: carcinogens in food, water, plastics, personal care products, cleaning products, and radiation.
