A final word about alternative treatment for cancer

You have the right to choose whatever treatment you want for your cancer.

Most people choose established treatments for their disease, and many also choose complementary therapies for some symptoms. A few choose no treatment, or a 'miracle cure'.

We recommend that you make an informed choice where you can. This will include asking the opinion of people you respect and researching your options. You are welcome to call the Cancer Council Helpline on 13 11 20 to talk about the choices before you.
