The responsibility and choices are always yours and yours alone. Either you have the total faith and belief in your own abilities to know thyself, or you don't. I am not talking about blind faith based on fear or ignorance here. Others can only know and decipher what information you give to them. I merely suggest that people take more time to get to know themselves better, more thoroughly by studying all the information possible and then make more personally responsible decisions.
Medical professionals are only humans who study in specialized areas.
Fear is like an air borne virus, silent but deadly. My personal physician, who suggested an immediate mastectomy five years ago, and with whom I had a major falling out, has learned this lesson. Used under License.
