surgery before chemo
hi all My mums been diagnosed stage 3 HGSC - and the treatment plan has been determined to be surgery before chemo. My understanding was that chemo first was preferable - has anyone else had it in this order? (know I should trust the doctors but am overthinking a bit here! ☺️) thanks in advance

4 cycles of chemotherapy and immunology for Stage 3 non small cell lung cancer
Hi. After having one cycle of chemotherapy and immunology I am enquiring whether after I complete the 4 cycles how long this treatment alone would prolong life? Upon research I'm getting 6-12 months only.

Ascites coming back,primary peritoneal
Hi everyone. I was hoping I could ask for some information. For a bit of background, I am supporting my Mum (76) who was diagnosed with primary peritoneal cancer almost two years ago after ascites discovered and drain needed. Initially thought was stage 3c and as it had affected a lymph node it was then

When should chemo restart post interval debulking surgery?
Hello ladies I am almost 5 weeks post surgery now and my consultant is happy to restart me on chemo now. Just wondered what experiences others have had in terms of coping with the ongoing recovery & chemo side effects. Thank you 🤗

to much to handle
Right now I’m trying to support everyone in the family and not fall apart myself. My sister has just started chemotherapy for breast cancer. The day after her first treatment she ended up in the hospital for 4 1/2 days because her sodium levels dropped so low. We initially thought she had a stroke.

Any enzalutamide for chemo?
Tall Allen recently posted about a trial in which taking enzalutamide during docetaxel chemotherapy might help get the PSA down. Abiraterone failed for me recently and I’m re-challenging with docetaxel. I’m based in the UK, and NHS protocol doesn’t allow this. Should I go off -piste and take enzalutimde

Total hysterectomy with oopherectomy recovery advice needed please!
Hi all, it’s been about 3 years since I wrote into this group. Back then I was considering having a hysterectomy to help relive the symptoms of severe endo. I still couldn’t decide so I decided to wait and see how I felt in a few years. Well, life had other plans. I got stage 3 ovarian cancer at 40

CHEMO Effects
A friend of mine finished 6 sessions of Taxater Dec 6th. He still has bouts of serious nasuea, which he attributes to the chemo. Anyone have any experience with this?

unfortunately the liver mets have returned to Martins liver. It is 6 months since chemo finished. There are multiple small mets. Martin is still feeling well. No fatigue, loss of appetite or pain. His MO said that this is very bad and gave a prognosis of 12 months. He is starting Martin on carboplatin
