Had a bone marrow transplant a few years ago. After a year of restrictions, I asked my oncologist when I could have a rare steak. She said ‘Never, it’s not good for you’. I said, ‘Well, I guess I’ll never eat steak again’. She said, ‘Yes, if you have it well done’. I should have quit while I was ahead, because when I said ‘I guess sushi is out of the question’ she left the room, wouldn’t talk to me again and transferred me to another doctor. I feel a little bad, because she did help save my life.
