More concerned about heart disease
I went to Sloan-Kettering last week and met with MaryAnn Carousso, NP for Dr. Bosl who is the Chair of the Dept. of Medicine, and is the primary oncologist for TC.
I told her I have a real concern about secondary malignancies associated with 4xEP. She said that Sloan never uses Bleo- EP is the standard protocal...
She stressed that although the secondary cancer is a possibility, I have a higher chance of developing early heart disease, and no one knows why.
She also said that I have ZERO control over developing a secondary cancer- however I absolutely can control and minimize the risk of heart disease.
And that is good news guys- keep your cholesterol and blood pressure at healthy levels, exercise and make good meal choices- and we are less likely to become a statistic.
I plan to turn my cigar humidor into a jewlery box for my wife, and I filled my beer fridge with water and Gateraid. (I have a few Amstel Lights on the bottom shelf!)
