Liquid Biopsy Better Option for Advanced Lung Cancer Patients
Imagine, getting a simple, noninvasive blood test instead of a surgical procedure to test for advanced lung cancer mutations. Then, imagine the liquid biopsy being the more efficient and reliable option of the two. Research is even showing that liquid biopsies are capturing clinically relevant mutations

My Father Has Silicosis (black lung)
My father was an architectural stone mason for the majority of his life. He has worked tirelessly maintaining the city of edinburgh as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. He needs a double lung transplant but the waiting list is so long that he will likely be too weak to undergo the operation

The latest news on another immunotherapy
Hi Everyone! A new immunotherapy called Tecentriq showed positive results in a study of patients with lung cancer. This new treatment could be FDA approved for the treatment of lung cancer as early as October. Tecentriq works a bit differently than currently available immunotherapies so it will be exciting

Immunotherapy
Hi, I am new to this site, I was diagnosed in July 2014 with NSCLC. I had four cycles of Cisplatin/Pemexetred which shrunk my main tumour by 75% and the cancer dissapeared from all the lymph nodes it was in.

Recovery from thyroid surgery.
Hello my friends, I recently had a thyroid lobectomy, right lobe, and am on day 4 post op. I am doing ok, but have numbness in my face, hands, feet. I went into the hospital and had my calcium levels checked on day 2 post op, and they were fine. Is this a normal feeling to have after thyroid surgery?

Not sure what to do long story
Hi all, This is probably going to sound like one odd story but let me inform you that none of it is made up or over exaggerated. Let me start from the beginning before the issues started which funny enough involved a pip form so I'm going back about two months ago. I had received my pip form to fill
