Getting Started
Just Diagnosed? Start Here.
Receiving a cancer diagnosis is one of the hardest moments in life. It's normal to feel shocked, scared, or confused. Here's what we recommend you do first:
- 1 Don't rush. Most cancers allow time to gather a second opinion before deciding on treatment.
- 2 Read your pathology report. Ask your doctor to explain it in simple terms. Write down your questions.
- 3 Seek a second opinion. A Chinese oncologist can review your case and offer additional perspectives.
- 4 Bring your family. Cancer treatment is a shared journey. Involve those closest to you.
