Mesothelioma
I am 66 and after a number of tests which included a PET scan, I have recently been diagnosed with Mesothelioma. My Consultant believes the best way forward is for me to now undertake a mix of both surgery and chemotherapy. I would be interested to hear from any other members who suffer from this disease

Hey there Health Unlocked. I joined on behalf of my Mom, who was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. My fiance and I researched until we were blue in the face and have decided to move forward with treatment with CBD and THC. I really hope this stuff lives up to the hype. There seems to be so much

MY DEAR SISTER'S STRUGGLE IS OVER
To all my dear Free to Breathe friends, It is with a heavy heart that I must report that my sister, Marta, has passed away. It was a very hard struggle since the end of this last February and we are deeply saddened by our loss. Her metastasized lung cancer, unfortunately, was discovered way too late

Week 6 R2...I fell
Screaming I put my bits on my bits, struggled breathing downstairs, by this point I was calmer and the feeling of a
collapsed
rib cage and punctured
lung
had passed. Instead I rang the go, who said go to A&E. Ten minutes later, I was at the hospital.
