Who should receive a 3rd COVID-19 dose according to the CDC
I just received this email from Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts and it's another confirmation as to who is really immunocompromised. I hope this helps some members of this forum who are on higher doses of Pred. "Patient Update - Dear Tufts Medical Center and Tufts Children’s Hospital Community

Mayo Clinic study suggests patients with lung cancer be screened for MET oncogene
Research by investigators at Mayo Clinic Cancer Center suggests that physicians should screen patients with lung cancer for MET amplification/overexpression before determining a treatment strategy. Their findings are published Cancer Discovery, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research

Three and a half years with Mantle cell lymphoma
I got diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma in March 2018 when I was 61. As it had already spread from my lymph nodes to multiple organs I was immediately admitted to hospital and began six rounds of Nordic protocol chemotherapy, followed by a stem cell bone marrow transplant. After my transplant I had

Fast IR imaging-based AI identifies tumour type in lung cancer
Infrared spectroscopy can automatically distinguish between various types of lung cancer and genetic mutations, allowing quick and reliable statements to be made regarding prognosis and treatment decisions. The prognosis and effective therapies differ based on the type of lung cancer. While it previously

B12 Testing
My GP tested my B12 in late June and it was 248. She gave me a B12 (Cyanocobalamin) injection on June 30th without doing any other tests. I then went to see a neurologist and she couldn’t believe that the GP had not done more testing. The neurologist has me scheduled today for the following tests: B12

Lung Transplant: “Dry Run”
Hi, Of the people who have had or are listed for a lung transplant, can you tell me how you coped with “dry runs” ( not sure what else to call them) I got called to Harefield, 2 days ago, as they potentially had suitable lungs for me. I had all the bloods, swabs, was prepped for theatre etc. Then it

Now that was quick, only referred Friday 9th just gone, along with a blood test, which I take must have been okay even though I don't

Body pain
Hey lovely people I hope you are well I’m having my 3rd round of chemo tomorrow for my lung disease and I’m dreading it. I’m struggling so badly at the moment with body pain especially in my legs. I’m also super tired and unmotivated…… I’m pushing myself to do things but it’s hard….. I still also feel

Targeted Therapy for ‘Undruggable’ Lung Cancer Stems from Decades of UCSF Research
Over the past two decades, targeted cancer therapies have changed the prognosis for thousands of patients. By targeting the specific genetic mutation behind a patient’s cancer, these therapies have enabled increasing numbers of patients to experience fewer toxic side effects and, often, live free of

Moffitt Researchers Develop Non-invasive Approach to Measure Biomarker Levels, Predict Outcomes in Lung Cancer Patients
Tests that analyze biomarkers are used during cancer management to guide treatment and provide information about patient prognosis. These tests are often performed on tissue biopsy samples that require invasive procedures and can lead to significant side effects. In a new article published in the Journal

Ground-breaking trial pilots new tests to detect lung cancer earlier. I posted about being invited for this a couple of weeks ago.
The first participants have taken part in a new research trial that aims to save lives by detecting lung cancer at an earlier stage when it is more treatable. People attending the NHS Targeted Lung Health Checks in Southampton are being invited to take part in the iDx Lung trial, which will offer new

Tocilizumab treatment extension, and latest PET-CT scan results
Three weeks ago, I discovered (via this wonderful group) that the NHS had decided to extend Tocilizumab injections until March 2022 (and indeed, my suppliers, Lloyds’ Homecare, arranged a delivery whilst I was away visiting my mum). 2 days later, my Consultant emailed me to say that she

Nanoparticle therapy shows promise at preventing fatal newborn lung disease
The disease is so rare and complex that its acronym is hard to pronounce. But for infants unlucky enough to be born with this lung disease, the outcome is usually fatal. The disease is called alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of the pulmonary veins (ACDMPV). Research indicates the disease

Hi everyone, just found this site through the NHS app. Had cancer twice, had chemo plus stem cell transplant. I've been left with knee problems due to Lymphoma and have to use a stroller and wheelchair. The treatment I've had has led to a deep depression and anxiety as I no longer have my independence
