    Dang, it didn't work for me.

    Dang, it didn't work for me. I also had two infections after surgery and that supposed to reduce the chance of recurrence as well.

    The unknown

    There is so much that is unknown about this process. From the outside looking in, I would have thought that everything was pretty much cut and dry.  But from the inside looking out, I realize that the medical community is only starting to understand the issues.  I guess it is better to have cancer now than fifty years ago, and hopefully fifty years hence, it will be cured with a pill with no side effects.  But we are here now.
