Bitter Pills to Swallow

#7. One of the treatments I am receiving is Hormone Therapy. I will be taking a pill everyday for five to ten years. It is supposed to keep the cancer from coming back. My case manager told me not to be fooled–it is just another name for chemo–only the dose is much smaller. Like regular chemo, there are variations in the drugs and dosage sizes. Each patient has to go through a trial and error period to find out which medication works for them.
