Pain Lingers More Than 2 Years After Breast Cancer Treatment Ends

If you did you might have noticed that the attitude wasn't all that nurturing. The point that young women feel pain more because they haven't had so much in their life yet? Really? Meaning that those women need to toughen up, right? Sit down and take it? Maybe just stop whining and be a sport about it?

I disagree with that way of practicing medicine. It is a bit tragic that this attitude still gets press and no one flinches. Of course, the previous comments don't look like they were thoughtful, coherent, and specific to the article. So maybe the only one commenting is someone trying to put a good face on an article that is not read by many, or at least not by people that have gone through the Breast Cancer process and were treated like like annoyances by people like the good doctor.

Shame on the doctor for lacking compassion but equal shame on the author for not questioning that point of view. You are both promoting an attitude that belongs in a bad movie, not in a Cancer therapy.
