How do you find your doctors?
Andrea got her
breast cancer diagnosis many years into a struggle with fibromyalgia, so she had learned the value of having a high-quality pain team behind her. Now she made the switch to breast cancer and went looking for the best minds and the steadiest, most experienced hands in the areas of oncology, radiation, and surgery. Being cancer-free, she says, is her reward for all that work—despite the jumping around from hospital to hospital that it required.
