What are the "right" questions for CRC survivorship research?

Postby ozziej » Thu Aug 24, 2017 7:19 pm

Hi there,
I recently completed a survey investigating the post treatment challenges for CRC survivors. I was not alone in noting that the survey "didn't ask the right questions". As a rectal cancer survivor I have my own ideas about what the "right" questions might be, but I would be very interested in hearing what others think. I am applying for PhD candidacy in 2018, doing doctoral level research into medical and psycho-social aspect of CRC survivorship, so your answers would also inform my research. TIA :D
F 56 dx 11/14 Stage 1 RC (post EMR)

3/15 ULAR (open) temp loop ileo
5/15 ileo reversal
NED and hoping to stay that way!! : )

I believe I may have posted this previously here ...
forgive me if I have, and after you read it .... maybe .... forgive me if I haven't :shock:
OR maybe 'cos I did :mrgreen:
" Given enough time and resources
any fool can get the right answer ...
the true GENIUS is in asking the RIGHT question to begin with ! "

Your wanting to ASK the right questions speaks volumes.
Hopefully folks will weigh in with lotsa' questions.

Maybe as an intro you'd want to delineate the scope of that survey,
the questions which were NOT indicative of what you felt was needed to elicit an appropriate response,
and a few possible "topics of discussion" or "frames of reference" implicit in others being able to ascertain where this conversation should lead .... ???

I agree with CRguy. I think it would help to know what you have in mind for "CRC survivorship research" and what you envision as the scope of your proposed research. How are you defining the term 'survivorship,' for example?
