radiotherapy for a grade 2 following surgery
on 1st March I had surgery to have 3 Meningiomas removed. One from my right frontal lobe had been graded grade 2. Yesterday I had an appointment with oncologist to discuss the option of having radiotherapy to reduce the risk of reoccurrence. I am really struggling to decide if I should go ahead and

immunotherapies and DCVax-L
Hi all - my husband was given confirmed biopsy results (after a debulking operation) last week of grade 4 GBM. 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 -

Treatment options
Hi all. I have very recently been diagnosed with a Stage One lump. I saw my Surgeon two days ago and was given to options. (1) Lobectomy (2) Radiotherapy. I do have some thoughts of my own, but I would appreciate any advice before I make my decision.

First PSA result after treatment

Radiotherapy
Next week I go for radiotherapy for a lumpectomy. I have 5 days of it, being fair skinned I am worried about the 'sunburn' effect that it will probably have on me, as I stay out of the sun due to burning. Not to mention, the feeling sick! Any suggestions please?

Financial Toxicity
I was following a trail of links regarding new and developed radiotherapies for advanced PCa. I found a new term that I had not seen before: Financial Toxicity. The one paper said that higher FT was linked to more aggressive cancers. Well, DUH! I've not seen anywhere where the cost of treatments

Does anyone have experience of Lenvatinib as a treatment for liver cancer?
I was diagnosed with liver cancer at the end of September last year, 2022. 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
