radiotherapy and zoledronic acid
hi,does anyone know if you have had
radiotherapy
is it safe to have zoledronic acid infusion, I have read that you should not have zoledronic acid if you have had any radiation.

Recent diagnosis of Ductal Invasive Breast Cancer
My breast cancer consultant initially said he thought we could potentially avoid chemo and
radiotherapy
but it is now looking like I may need chemo first then surgery. He seemed to think it's been caught early enough for a good prognosis.

Bladder advice needed
Hi guys Had
radiotherapy
two months ago, and the following CT scan has shown a thickening in the bladder wall. This has coincided with changed bladder symptoms - increased frequency needed and decreased flow (usually just dribbling to start with).

Hiprex and D Mannose
I have had long term UTIs arising post radiation therapy. I also have bile salts malabsorption which causes bowel issues so it’s not always easy to keep myself as clean as I would like and I have been told this is likely to be the cause of the repeated UTIs Up until recently for approx 6 years

Anal Cancer - after effects
I had chemo/
radiotherapy
for Anal Cancer in 2015 and was signed-off in 2021. Several times post treatment I have had spells of anal aching and soreness that mirrored what I experienced prior to diagnosis and treatment.

immunotherapies and DCVax-L
His treatment plan is 6 weeks of
radiotherapy
with chemotherapy, then 4 weeks rest, then 6 months of chemo. I'm interested in people's experiences of immunotherapies, particularly DCVax-L - has anyone done this? or investigated?
