Well, first off taking any new drug that has potential side effects warrants some thinking. Any doctor should be understanding if you want to think on it.

Another option is to ask the famous question "Doctor, is this the only treatment available? What are my other options to consider before trying chemo? What is it about this medicine that you think would work for me?"
