Husband Update
It seems like so long since I’ve updated, but it’s been only a few months. Husband is doing… ok. We’ve just received news that they've found a donor for his stem cell transplant and is scheduled to be admitted at the end of next month. It’s all become very, very real. The kids and I won’t be able

Two new drug approvals (for patients with EGFR Exon 20 insertion and patients with KRAS G12C mutation)
Hi everyone, I know Denzie posted about at least one of the new drug approvals fbut I figured it can't hurt to post about the new approvals again so people are aware of them. With both approvals, I wanted to share why it's important to know what your biomarker test results. Sometimes healthcare professionals

Research suggests BMI may not be best obesity indicator to assess risk for lung cancer.
New research published in the Journal of Thoracic Oncology (JTO) suggests the method used to calculate how obesity is measured may affect whether it is considered a risk factor for lung cancer. The JTO is an official journal of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer. Although the

Fatigue and very hot flushes
On 5th June I reduced to 7mg but since then I have found the basics of life a massive struggle and I’m normally a few miles a day person. Various limbs have become painful even an old break in my wrist is giving me jip. When these hot flushes come on I feel absolutely drained so I’m going to add an

Hi guys! My husband was looking around for information and he found about this, we were wondering if this is a common treatment? Thank you very much!

Vaccine efficacy for COPD and immune compromised people
Hi everyone. Have any of you had any discussions with your medical team with respect to the efficacy of the Covid vaccines for people with compromised immune systems and COPD. I have COPD as well as having a stem cell transplant due to multiple myeloma. I have been in remission for 8 years but it is

Lung cancer volunteer activities for kids
My husband appreciated this site. Reading everyone’s experiences gave him hope and knowledge, and he was thankful to members on this site who replied to his questions/concerns during his one year battle with Stage IV NSCLC.

CT Promising for Sublobar Resection in Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
CT features may help identify which patients with stage IA non-small cell lung cancer are optimal candidates for sublobar resection, rather than more extensive surgery. This retrospective study included 904 patients (453 men, 451 women; mean age, 62 years) who underwent lobectomy (n=574) or sublobar

Introduction of myself, PMF, from China
Hi, I'm Qi, from China, I'm 34 years old this year. I confirmed PMF in 2017. At that time, the splenomegaly was high, but it was not very high, and it was not so high all the time. These symptoms began to happen to me one after another as early as 2013. JAK2V617F gene mutation, there is only one mutation

Do you want to have a friendly chat with a researcher about your experiences?
[We're still recruiting to this study in case there are any new members or people who still wanted to take part] Were you diagnosed with lung cancer within the last 12 months? Have your say about your experiences in the PEARL study - a research programme led by UCL and funded by Cancer Research UK.

Continuation of Tocilizumab treatment in UK needed- Help or advice needed please.
I know not many people with LVV/ GCA in the UK are being treated with Tocilizumab ( only 250 according to NICE literature) but in the absence of any advice or help from my Rheumatology consultant, I am hoping someone on this forum could advise me. NICE still hasn’t rethought it’s advice
