Cathy Hitchcock and Steve Austin, N.D., have written a book for women who are ready to actively participate in their diagnosis and treatment. A husband and wife team, Hitchcock and Austin walk you step-by-step through each part of diagnosis, treatment (both conventional and alternative), and prevention (including prevention of a recurrence). With the help of a flow chart, they examine different diagnosis options. They also suggest questions to ask your doctor and offer checklists, summaries, and overviews. Interwoven with all this information, Cathy shares her personal story as a breast cancer survivor. She describes her ordeal upon discovering the lump and the transitions she has gone through to live with the diagnosis in a life-affirming way. Unlike many other breast cancer patients, Cathy didn’t simply accept the choices offered by medical doctors. Instead, with the help of her husband, she studied the research and made her own decisions about conventional and alternative treatments.  « less Post This Book + Reminder Login | Register ISBN-13: 9781559583626 ISBN-10: 1559583622 Publication Date: 6/20/1994 Pages: 336 Rating: Currently 4/5 Stars.  1 4 stars, based on 1 rating Publisher: Prima Lifestyles Book Type: Paperback Reviews: Amazon | Write a Review
