“Disease Flare” in lung cancer
Hi all 😊 I am still around and check in on you all even if I don’t always post. As a lot of you know, my dad had stage IV NSCLC adenocarcinoma diagnosed 2/28/18, low tumor volume, and was held stable until 9/2018 at which time he went into the hospital on 10/16 and heartbreakingly passed on 11/20/18

In April 2017 I was diagnosed with stage 1a non small cell lung cancer. I underwent a lobectomy of my upper right lobe. In July 2017 I ended up in intensive care with a massive PE. I just had a CT scan that showed "suspicious" enlarged lymph nodes located between my heart and my lungs, I underwent

reduced intensity transplant
If your over 50 and need a stem cell transplant it most likely will be low intensity. It also goes by mini-transplant or RIC transplant. It is NOT a standard stem cell transplant. all your cells are not replaced. you keep most of your own blood cells and have donor cells added to fight your cancer cells

I am happy but also very apprehensive about the worst case possibilities... They still need a week or so to do more internal checks but

Treatment withdrawn, do we have any more options?
Hi all I’m writing this out of desperation and am probably clutching at straws. I would like some advice on whether there is any more I should / could be doing to help my Dad or just accept that there is nothing more that can be done. He was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer in May 2018. It had

Travel Insurance after lung surgery
My wife, aged 73 was diagnosed with lung cancer 12 months ago and subsequently underwent a left upper lobectomy. We are now hoping to undertake a cruise to Scandinavia and are seeking travel insurance. Has anybody discovered a travel insurance company who might be able to assist?

Stem Cell Treatment
A little while ago I mentioned that liver transplants could one day become a thing of the past. Day by day the use stem cell treatment and research brings us closer to finding a cure for liver disease. HIV positive man in London becomes second person ever to be cleared of virus after stem cell transplant

Why is this necessary?
Diagnosed GCA, on Pred , however Consultant has recommended an Endoscopy and Colonoscopy. I do not have any symptoms and feel bad enough, so I declined?

Hot Flushes increasing
I reduced my prednisolone from 10mg to 9mg at the beginning of February and just about coping with the soreness but have noticed an increase in facial hot flushes and night sweats. Has anyone else felt these side effects have got worse as you reduce?

Lung transplant
This week my lung specialist asked me if I would want to have a lung transplant. So I am going to go to Toronto and meet with the transplant team and see what a lung transplant is all about. So my question for everyone is, if you had a chance to get a lung transplant would you get one done, and why ?
