Tumor Lysis Syndrome: What ( CLL ) Patients Need to Know (Leukemia and Lymphoma Society podcast)
Many of us are aware of the risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) when we commence treatment, particularly with venetoclax and that the purpose of the venetoclax ramp-up, is to reduce the risk of TLS occurring. TLS can also occur with other CLL treatments, especially when they are fast acting, rapidly killing

I have a concern with my ca -125, post op
My ca-125 started out 536, then thru chemo dropped to 219, then 56. Had surgery only dropped to 50. Back on chemo dropped to 19, 3 weeks later and finishing up chemo, only dropped to 15? Has anyone else had a slow decline? I'm done with chemo and having a scan done Monday. I'm a little concerned

A New Direction
After seven years of fighting this disease with chemo, radiation, ADT, and abiraterone, I suffer from fatigue, nerve damage and paralysis and nerve pain in my left foot from radiation treatment, as well as depression, and a constant feeling of uncertainty. However, I am now free to let go of the life

UK and abiraterone availability
This may be old news but I just heard that Abi is finally off patent in the UK. This should mean that the NHS will now prescribe for HSPCa. (Currently restricted for this group unless you started it in Covid as alternative when chemo not possible). If it still can't be prescribed via NHS , it will now

lung cancer , dysplasia, and PNI
I had surgery to remove right upper lobe for greater than 3 cm squamous cell lung cancer. Margins were free of invasive cancer but I have high grade dysplasia areas in bronchial margins and also have PNI which is peri neural invasion. They discussed you chemo for this. Anyone else’s have these things

Confused clear cell concerns
So went for chemo no.4 today, as no. 3 had made me ill with terrible side effects they decided to stop the paclitaxel and just do the carboplatin. White blood cells were low but still ok to go for the carboplatin.My CA125 is now down to 10. Just very scared and confused as clear cell is rare and known

lung cancer & phelgm
I was diagnosed with stage 3 in feb. 2021 and proceeded with both chemo and radiation. Wound up with 3 bouts of pneumonitis that was pretty bad. Come late 2022 a scan revealed the cancer was back and growing. I started a tougher chemo regiment with immunotherapy and completed 8 of the 12 treatments
