Re - chemo cocktail, Caelyx and Yondelis.
Good morning , After 5 lines of chemo my doctor has come up with this new regime - 6 x 3 weekly sessions if it proves to be working and if I can cope. I finished the 5th line just over 3 months ago. I’ve had Caelyx before but I’ve never heard of Yondelis. Has any one on this forum had any experience

My sct progress
Here's an update on my sct. I had my donor cells 31 Jan following 6 days radiotherapy and 5 days chemo. My neutrophils have crept up in the last 3 days to 1.15 which is good. However I am really down because of the nausea and am regretting my decision unless this improves

Pluvicto
Does anyone have any experience with this drug? Relative is in his 70s and has bone metastases in the pelvis, but has not spread beyond that. Has gone through chemo which helped and other treatments but cancer is still growing slowly. Still walking around but fears being bed bound, losing lots of weight

possible ONJ-- seeing an oral surgeon for the first time tomorrow morning
My dentist referred me to an oral surgeon as I have a small area of exposed bone behind my right lower molar, and have been on meds for bone mets (Zometa first, now Xgeva) since diagnosis in 2004. I've done well in terms of the bone mets and the women I have met who've had ONJ have generally done well

Recurrence update
Hi lovely ladies I saw my oncologist on Friday to get results of PET scan and update of first recurrence. The scan showed another area of growth this time near my liver. Measuring 14mm same as those in diaphragm and cardio although these haven’t grown much since last scan. Extremely bright in velocity

Change from Ropinerole to Rigotine patches
I saw a new Neurologist at my local hospital last week as my RLS has been made worse by the chemo I am on. I am stage 4 and Palliative care for Sarcoma with mets in liver, chest wall and spine. I told him I can’t wean off Ropinerole so he suggested changing to Rigotine patches which, as I also have IBS

Should I ask for a new assessment - fourth edition
Finally got to see the
Chemotherapy
Consultant. She was very nice, very patient and explained everything thoroughly, not just about the
chemotherapy
but the state of my cancer too. I learned quite a bit about myself and my cancer and many questions were answered.
