Does everyone know that you can access the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology? You have to establish an account, but it's very straightforward. Their flow charts are easy to understand even tho they are meant for clinicians. They often will help either set your mind at ease or provide additional information when you're feeling uncomfortable about your treatments.

I was in there
I was in there the other day because I heard they are now reccomending that all Tripple Negative Breast Cancer patients get tested for the BCRA1 and BCRA2 gene. This is a subset of people who can pass on the gene to thier kids. I could not find proof of the reccomendation after some time of navigating the site. However, when I told my MO that they were reccomending this now he wrote up a refferall for such. Right now my computer is down so I will not be on the net as much until I get it fixed.
