Hundreds of thousands of people are cured of cancer every year, due in large part to chemotherapy treatment. Making the Chemotherapy Decision is a comprehensive sourcebook for people looking at chemotherapy treatment and their families.In this recently-expanded fifth edition, updated in 2014, medical journalist David Drum demystifies chemotherapy treatment in a practical and supportive way. The book includes information on the 122 most commonly-used chemotherapy drugs, their side effects, and suggests ways to cope with the entire cancer treatment process..Stressing the connection between body and mind in the healing process, Drum dispels many common myths about chemotherapy and presents clear, concise information on pain control, nutrition, lifestyle changes, patients' rights, alternative treatments, social and financial issues, the management of side effects and more. Case histories of people who have experienced chemotherapy are included. Patients who actively participate in their treatment greatly improve their chances of survival and enhance their quality of life. Making the Chemotherapy Decision provides information and support to help people with cancer and their caregivers along the way to recovery from cancer.
