Cold cap advice?
Im a very lucky gal whose cancer was caught early (by accident) at stage 1c. I've had surgery and about to start chemo tomorrow. Carbopentin only. They booked me a cold cap as I was originally going to have Carbo + Taxil which usually results in hair loss. Now the risk is lower so not sure whether you'd

immunosuppressants and Covid vaccine
I was told by my nephrologist that I should wait 3 months to get the current Covid vaccine until my immunosuppressive medication (rituximab) wears off because I won’t mount a good response if I get it now. Has anyone been told similar advice?

covid vaccination
Thankyou to everyone who replied to my previous post . Most people seem to be having the covid booster . It isn’t the initial jab that bothers me but what it’s doing long term . I had my last one in November and since then I’ve developed polymyalgia rheumatica, another auto immune disease . Who knows

Covid jab, to be or not to be
I really don't know what to think about the covid jab, i have had them all until now, but having contracted covid 4 weeks ago, and ended up feeling terrible, and even now i feel pretty dire, and it certainly heightened my depression, and so i do question if it's really worth bothering.

Allergic reaction to Doxil, my first ever chemo infusion
Hi everyone, Has anyone experienced an allergic reaction to Doxil? Almost three years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 MBC. After being on hormone therapy for over two years, mostly IBrance and Letrozole, and then oral chemo for six months, my most recent petscan showed the cancer is still spreading
