What's Inside

Ten questions that change the conversation.

  1. 1Understanding your exact diagnosis — type, subtype, stage, and grade
  2. 2The real goal of treatment: cure, control, or comfort
  3. 3All your options — including risks, benefits, and doing less
  4. 4Which side effects are emergencies (and who to call)
  5. 5How progress is tracked — scans, bloodwork, and tumor markers
  6. 6Biomarker & genomic tests that can personalize your treatment
  7. 7Whether a clinical trial might be right for you
  8. 8Nutrition, movement, and lifestyle that support treatment
  9. 9Supplement & drug interactions — the most important safety question
  10. 10Coordinating a care team that works together
