| The Testicular Cancer Resource Center |
I must be very up front here: I am very hesitant to publish this section because conventional TC treatments (surgery / radiation / chemo) are SO effective...so much so, in fact, that I have read very little about alternative therapies for testicular cancer patients. However, I also realize that there are situations where you might be at the end of your proverbial rope and are looking for answers--and that's why I decided to see where I can help...
I think a little sound advice here is a good way to start off:
Keep your doctor in the loop! Regardless of where you are in your TC treatments, you need a sound medical team backing you up and helping you make decisions about your life and body. If you do decide to go down some "road less traveled", you will definitely need a good sounding board to guard against doing further damage...it is very important to find an "alternative practitioner" that you trust, has a good track record, and (even more important) references from "satisfied customers".
Let the buyer beware! The reason I say this is because often times those who "offer" unconventional cancer methods prey upon the weakened state that the most desperate of us are in...physically and/or mentally.
