My sct progress
I had my donor cells 31 Jan following 6 days
radiotherapy
and 5 days chemo. My neutrophils have crept up in the last 3 days to 1.15 which is good. However I am really down because of the nausea and am regretting my decision unless this improves

A bit frightened
I went to AnE Friday through the night because I had blood after bowel movement and the pain in my poor bottom was really bad. The doctor was so lovely and I feel reassured after she examined me. Even internallinternally, in the same ways that the doctors/oncologists used to do at every cancer check

grade 4 GBM

radiotherapy
although during the op he took a stoke which left him without the use of his right arm and leg and also aphasia. It is so hard to watch someone so young go through this.

Attended Late Effects Clinic - Answers at last
When I dont drink enough I have the urge to wee so often with little output and the thought is that the
radiotherapy
has damaged the lining of the bladder and so when the urine becomes concentrated then this causes the issue. Weird huh.

Whole pelvic radiation after testicular cancer?

Interruption to radiation due to other health issue; will it impact efficacy?
Has anyone here had an interruption to their radiation from another health event? Did you just pick back up on the radiation treatment as planned or did you break for a while and start all over again? My dad was on day 9 of 20 rounds of radiation and he had a heart attack and needed a stent. He had

Amar Kishan, MD, on Optimal Sequencing of ADT With RT in Nonmetastatic Prostate Cancer
In men who received prostate-only
radiotherapy
(PORT), concurrent/adjuvant ADT was associated with improved metastasis-free survival (10-year benefit 8.0%, HR 0.65, P<0.0001) and overall survival (HR 0.69, P<0.0001).

Does anyone have experience of Lenvatinib as a treatment for liver cancer?
After a scan I was told that I had one large tumour and several smaller ones, that the large tumour was near the main artery and was of a size that ruled out conventional treatment, liver transplant,
radiotherapy
, embolisation or any of the current methods of dealing with the tumour.

I had the standard IMRT for my pca back in 2013. I was told it was a lifetime dose. Is that true with the newer forms of radiation treatment?
