Good night @Snowie @Eve7 😴
@outlander Yes I know its highly inconvenient and mightily unfair for you. But this is a lifetime thing, and adapting to this diet will definitely make a huge difference to your health in the long term. Once you get the hang of it, and feel the benefits, it will become second nature
Its totally normal right now to see only what you cant eat, because there certainly are a lot of restrictions. But you will soon learn what you can eat and what you like ... you will gradually broaden your range of foods you can eat.
But I totally get that it all seems so hard right now.
Have you seen a dietician or nutritionist yet? I recall you were looking into doing so, but unsure if you have done so yet. I think it would be money well spent.
Meant to say earlier too ... well done for seeking out a new GP. Hope this one is much better than the last.
No, there isnt really anything to talk about with treatment decisions. I know the oncologist will push for one long term treatment, which I really dont want. The other possible treatment recommended could be pushed if I say I dont want the other option. Or they may recommend both. Ive already agreed to radiation therapy. Was always told it was a given, when electing lumpectomy rather than full mastectomy. I just want to do as much research as possible on additional therapies beforehand so I know what to do. But at the same time accepting professional advice as to best treatment options. End of the day ... its a decision purely for me. And I know the risks verses benefits.
