Fit and well and a bummer that he has to have
radiotherapy
, he has some incontinency due to damage to one nerve at operation and further treatment can cause him to be fully incontinent which being fit and active will be devastating.

Has anyone been involved in a clinical trial with osmertinib? It’s an option for my dad or have chemo/radiotherapy concurrently.
My dad has stage 3b lung cancer with PDL1 positive and edfr, a rare mutation. He’s a non smoker and we need to choose between chemo/ radio then surgery or a clinical trial (computer randomly assigns either osmertinib tablets only or osimertinib + chemo or osimertinib + placebo) and then surgery to remove

Iron storage and use
My cancer and treatment have brought me to the point where I'm anemic. My hemoglobin is at 8.2 g/dl, and my serum iron at 21 mg/dl. At the same time my ferritin is 1295 ng/ml. My body is storing the iron in ferritin, rather than using it to create blood cells. I understand that this is seen with cancer

Chemotherapy Maintenance
Still on the Prednisolone for the inflammation of my right lung due to
Radiotherapy
side effects. On a reducing scale now but stopped for a couple of days to take the Dexamethasone. Back to the Prednisolone now . Omg these steroids might help but the weight I'm piling on 😪.

After having the Covid Booster vaccine, 5 hours after this I started coughing blood up, not done that since first diagnosed with LC (I have Lung cancer, but a week prior my CT results came through as a (NED) no evidence of disease), so could not be caused by the tumour as Radiation therapy has eradicated
