I’m a home health occupational therapist and sometimes see patients who are undergoing chemo. All of them had poor quality of life and were miserable from the side effects, but fully trusted their doctors and eventually died. I did have one who questioned his treatment and decided to quit his chemo because he suffered one medical issue after another and rightly blamed the chemotherapy for them. While receiving OT with a dx of stage 4 prostate cancer (but without chemo), his health blossomed with strength and balance training and the wonderful care of a dtr in law who cooked homemade meals for him. He asked for my opinion whether to resume chemo or not (doubting himself I guess but wanting confirmation) and I just told him compare yourself now to when you were doing chemo. I did not know anything about fenben then so was not able to share about it.
