18 - WHAT IS PROGNOSIS & HOW OFTEN SHOULD I ASK ABOUT MINE?

Ask Your Doctor About Prognosis Repeatedly
Prognosis tells you what to expect in terms of length of life only as of that moment, but not quality. It will change as time passes and new information comes in, so you must ask repeatedly. Initially it estimates how long you will live if you take no treatment to give you a baseline against which you can consider treatment.
