Questions to Ask the Doctor
It is important to have honest, open discussions with your doctors and nurses. Feel free to ask questions, even if they seem trivial. It is a good idea to write your questions down so you will remember to ask them during each appointment. Here are some important questions you may want to ask:
- Is my tumor benign or malignant? Functioning or non-functioning?
- If my tumor is functioning, which hormone is affected?
- How experienced are you with my specific disease?
- What treatment options are available to me?
- How can I best prepare for my treatment?
- What should I expect as I go through treatment?
- What changes should I expect in the upcoming months regarding my health and ability to participate in daily activities?
