gamini Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Chemotherapy adds anaverage of 5 months life with all its unpleasant side effects and huge costs.

faraday Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 And alot of the studies are grossly influenced - in an indirect way- by the drug companies. Look at the way Statins are being pushed....
