In this very significant new review of meta analysis' of melatonin, it was shown that melatonin significantly increased the one year survival rate of cancer patients with a p-value of 0.005. How do oncologists not recommend melatonin to their cancer patients? I think vets should take notice also because melatonin is naturally occurring in animals just as it is in humans and plant life.

I will give 2 reasons first hand experience.
1. Chemo centers are driven by incentives to keep an 80% capacity all day long of people in the chemo chair hooked up. I have seen onc's actually walk through, not to check on people, but to count empty chairs.
2. Other concern is statistics. They are taught to keep control of the patient and deter everything not listed per NCCN to the point of scaring the crap out of people saying things like "No no no, do not do this or take that. You could die." Then they spill analogies like "We are in the middle of a football game now, it's halftime. Ball is in the air and we just have to wait for the end outcome (statistic). Just let me worry about your cancer. You rest and make sure you come to all appts."
I could go on and on.
I know for a fact if I had followed along blindly obeying I would be dead already.

Just to add to the melatonin study. When I told one of my onc's I started taking melatonin he said "I don't recommend it. You need to stop. Cancer is stressful enough and melatonin causes nightmares. Just another stress on you." So, he said he would rx lexapro or xanax if I needed it. No thanks!
WHAT!!!!
