A member asked:
Can you tell me is cancer still as painful as it used to be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not all cancer is: Painful. What is quite different is the profession believes that pain needs to be treated, not borne stoically. We also have many tools to treat. There are barriers, but no patient should be in pain.
