What is strongly encouraged is speaking openly and honestly with an oncologist (a cancer specialist) who can give real, personalized answers based on test results and medical history.
A few things worth knowing:
- Early and open conversations with a doctor about prognosis (what to expect) are really important
- Asking for a second medical opinion is always okay and often helpful
- Emotional and mental health support matters too β living with schizophrenia while facing a serious illness is a lot, and reaching out to a mental health professional or care team can help
Please don't face this alone. Talking to a doctor as soon as possible is the most important next step. π
