Worried about silicosis
I'm new here and concerned, worried, paranoid, call it what you will. 5days ago I cut a 2m channel in a plaster wall wfor some cables with an angle grinder. I did have a small paper mask but in hindsight it was not appropriate. There was dust everywhere. I showered straight after the work but since then

Decision time for Multiple Myeloma
I have been fighting PC for 23 years and six months ago I was told I had MM. Had treatments for MM and was told that I had an excellent response was a perfect candidate for Stem Cell Transplant even though I was 78 years old and have comorbidities. After going through what seemed like a thousand tests

mesothelioma - anyone tried Opdivo or Yervoy?
Hello I am looking for some advice on mesothelioma, I know there is no hope, but maybe I can at least alleviate my dad's condition - he is short of breath, extremely weak and has chest and arm pain. I read about Opdivo/ Yervoy immune therapy (I believe nivolumab and ipilimumab are the exact drug names

California wildfires and stress/- update
I live in Northern California and have been enduring power blackouts for weeks. Today we have the 4th blackout in 3 weeks and are being told the blackouts could go on go another month as there is no rain in the forecast. Thank goodness no fires have started near me and I haven’t had to evacuate!

Secrets of lung cancer spread found in patients' blood and biopsies.
Early signs that a patient’s lung cancer may spread and become untreatable can be picked up in samples of their blood and tumour, according to a trio of papers published in Nature Medicine today (Monday). “Thanks to these findings we know much more about how lung cancer changes, spreads and evades treatment

Adding radiation after immunotherapy improves progression-free survival for some patients with metastatic lung cancer.
Adding precisely aimed, escalated doses of radiation after patients no longer respond to immunotherapy reinvigorates the immune system in some patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), increasing progression-free survival (PFS). Findings of the phase II randomized trial will be presented

Docetaxel...one down...advice wanted on “chilling out”
My dad’s PSA recently went up from around 4 to around 6, so the local oncologist told us to put a lung surgery on the back burner and to start chemo, which we did today. My dad is 86 and had successful chemo for non-Hodgkins lymphoma several years ago. With this chemo, I think he’s a bit baffled that

I have the PD-L1 expression at only 5 percent but am fortunate that my disease has remained stable whilst on Pembrolizumab. I had an appointment with the Oncologist yesterday and I am due to

Silent Reflux after Lung Surgery for Early Cancer
I had a right lower lobectomy in February. My consultant is pleased with my recovery and I am now just being monitored. However after this surgery I had symptoms develop that lead me to now believe I have silent reflux or LPR. I've had an endoscopy that found only mild gastritis. I take Esomeprazole
