Head and Neck lymphoedema ?
If you have had treatment for a head and neck cancer - surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy. You are at risk of developing lymphoedema in the head, face or neck. This can impact on eating , swallowing and speech, but simple self- massage, head, neck, shoulder mobilisations and breathing techniques

Tested positive for covid AGAIN
Well had a test Tuesday with ONS tested negative went into Poole hospital for a pre test for covid Friday and heard today from NHS that I've tested positive. That puts my start of Radiotherapy on Tuesday in jeopardy 😪. The test I had on Tuesday was swabbing throat and nose the test I had in the hospital

Delighted to be still here after my sell buy date!!!!
Hi everyone. I haven't been on here for a while but I thought I'd just update you on my situation. In September my weekly Taxol chemo treatment was stopped as it was not working. I was told that I had about 6 months life expectancy. Despite an emergency hospital admission and subsequent palliative radiotherapy

For many years I have suffered bouts of bloating, nausea, cramps, diarrhoea and constipation. I put it down to ibs and so did doctors until last year it had got worse and I’d

My Mum
For those who have been supporting or following me since my mum was diagnosed with LC, I just wanted to let you know that my lovely mum passed away a week ago today. I know she had LC and there was no cure, but it was a terrible shock as she’d only just finished a course of radiotherapy and was due to

Safety and Efficacy of Virtual Prostatectomy With Single-Dose Radiotherapy in Patients With Intermediate-Risk Prostate Cancer
FYI: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaoncology/fullarticle/2777068 Not sure I like the use of the term "virtual" prostatectomy. Several years ago something called a "brush biopsy" was promoted to dentists. IMO it was NOT a biopsy (though apparently the company was very aggressive in going after

Stage 3 Lung Cancer
Hi everyone, I’ve spent the last couple of months looking through various forums online and finally plucked up the courage to post today. My dad turned 60 this year and has recently been diagnosed last month with stage 3 lung cancer. It’s one tumour on the right side of his lung and his lymph nodes

Nausea as a consequence of radiotherapy
Because of a cervical tumor, I started going for radiotherapy. After the second day of therapy I have terrible nausea and all my food has a horrible smell. Is that normal?

Oligometastasic PCa
New Canadian study below [1[. Questions remain regarding oligometastatic (i.e. few mets) PCa. Is it curable with metastasis-directed treatment (MDT) alone? Does MDT improve survival? Patients had "rising PSA (0.4-3.0 ng/mL) after maximal local therapy (radical prostatectomy and post-operative radiotherapy

Wish me luck,
Well I now have four out of four mets. I have liver, spine , lungs and now brain. Start my whole brain radiotherapy on Monday. Looking at this board it seems I am going to be exhausted for a couple of months. Not looking forward to wearing the mask either, as I am very claustrophobic 😢

neutropaenia long after Rx
Has anyone had low neutrophils long after Radiotherapy? Nearly a year after it, my neutrophils are only 0.6, way below the lower normal range.
