Treatment Decision Matrix

When you feel that you are ready to make a decision, have a look at the attached document entitled Initial Treatment Decision Matrix. It poses a series of questions, some of which may apply to your condition, and then offers a rationale as to why a particular form of treatment may be applicable to your situation or not.

Initial treatment decision matrix

Remember! Your choice of treatment should be grounded on three legs of rational decision making:

  • You understand your condition fully.
  • You understand the applicability of each form of treatment to your condition and the likely results.
  • You appreciate the negative consequences of a treatment and are prepared to live with those consequences.
