On Assurances Given By Medical Practitioners To A PatientMy still swollen face lathered with moisturiser & splashed with decades-old aftershave at 2am to stop disquieting sensations, after I applied Efudix as per my doctors instructions, has me considering what is a reasonable degree of confidence for a patient to have in assurances about short, medium and long term outcomes from their doctor.
The topic is complex. And emotional for some patients etc

Finished a 5 day program of high strength Efudix (fluorouracil) on my face 2X daily.
Feeling a bit knocked around, irritable, swollen face & around the eyes, slight obstruction on lower edges of visual field, occasional Eustachian tube discomfort, weeping crusty lesions on skin. Didn't sleep well.
Described as an old chemotherapy that wasn't highly selective, fluorourcil is meant to kill off sun damaged skin cells. And reduce future skin cancers.
