Nearing the end
Joe refuses to go on hospice, but we have a
palliative
care
doctor (who is also a hospice physician) who comes to our home. We are no longer seeking treatment as the cancer has spread literally to every bone able to visualized.

Short of breath again
The dr also suggested putting me in touch with the
palliative
care
team as I have had disease progression recently, & I have agreed.

Useful write by an unknown lady saved in my system long back and forgotten by me!
As an addict of reading materials on health, this article I had saved but forgot it. After joining this group, I deep dived into my computer and found this. Written by a Tamil south Indian lady, few words may be new to a few. I am SHARING, WITH A REQUEST FOR THE READER'S OPINIONS only and not recommending

Dad still on ventilator with no improvement
The doctors/consultants have said there is not much more they can do in terms of treatments as they have tried all available options and that we should consider
palliative
care
. They have been extremely pessimistic throughout this ordeal which hasn't made things easier for us.

Is a sore throat a GCA symptom?
We think she probably had it for sometime but as my father was receiving full time
palliative
care
at home we were not as aware of her health issues as my dad was so poorly. She was put on Pred 15mgs and it worked initially like a dream.

palliative

Quest for Lu 177 therapy 3.0
As I mentioned before I feel like my current MO has given up on me and
palliative
care
is useless. They (
palliative
care
) scolded me (a doctor) for prescribing myself gabapentin to help ease my pain (and it does help me) and refused any long acting opiates.

It’s been a week post Lu 177 #1
I need pain medications 24/7 but I definitely need
palliative
care
to step up and start making me more comfortable (this is my only goal now). Pain control is NOT Mayo Clinic’s strong suit.

Richter’s Transformation - Update 27-01-2021
The dramatic nature of the situation escalated when transplant doctors in Norway decided against a new Transplant and I was only offered
Palliative
care
. (My Haematologist was positive to another HSCT.) I was in good form and I started looking for options elsewhere in Europe, USA and China.
