Gas pain
hello, I have cirrhosis and liver cancer due to Hep c. I’m waiting for radiotherapy ablation and hoping to be listed following a 3 phase ct scan. I’m worried this may show more cancer that MRI doesn’t show. Also I get pain if I get any wind it travels up my back, sometimes feel slight pain in esophagus

review update- scores on the doors
Hi everyone so the results were NSCLC STAGE 3 , 3 lymph nodes activated along windpipe , but no spread …T3 n3 m0 . Sadly , I just missed out on it being operable though because of those blumming lymph’s …. so it looks like Chemo and radiotherapy combined or sequential … still awaiting markers for suitability

GK/CK radiotherapy
Hi all. I was diagnosed with a 1cm AN following an MRI in February. I had the follow up MRI last month which showed it’s now got a cyst on it and is 1.5cm. I’m being referred to Royal Marsden for GK/CK. Any suggestions as to how I can prepare for this, please?

Legal issues when/if you tell your employer you have PC and need an extended treatment?
I'm trying to get my radiation treatment scheduled (combo brachytherapy + 5 weeks of xray beam (IMRT?). Are there any recommended resources around protections from being let go by your employer due to the time off I might need? The company I work for is based in California but I work full time remote

12 months hormone therapy done.

Should I seek radiation treatment to my spine will undergoing ADT. There is pain.
I started Lupron about a month ago and will start Zytiga next week so maybe I’m just being impatient but, man I’m having very real dull pain in my T2 vertebrae where the cancer lit up. The Radiologist wants to zap it but there is disagreement among the ranks that say in time the cancer on the spine will

Confused!
Due to problems with constipation and periods of diarrhoea, I asked my GP for a referral to a late effects clinic but they insisted on a colonoscopy instead. That was a very painful experience and showed a twisted sigmoid colon but I have been told that is not significant and not a cause of my bowel

Hello Good People A part of my kidney has been operated.
I did the surgery robot-assisted kidney resection a tumor 1.6cm , it took 3 hours and they have stopped blood to the kidney for 17 minutes, and it was 7 holes on my stomach area. The operation was good and I stayed for 4 days with the full control. I will use Fragmin 5000 small injection

i have faecal incontinence in bad times plus, in good times, bloating and wind, Continually fatigued. I have a damaged bowel from radiotherapy. My symptoms closely match IBS and I have had some miserable experiences in the last few years which have obviously stressed me heavily. Hard to get real discussions
