Post SBRT CAT Scan
In June of this year I had stereotactic body radiation therapy for a slow growing tumor in my left lung which was presumed to be a recurrence of a previous NSCLC in that same area. Biopsy was not an option due to the tumor's proximity to the aorta. I had a follow up CAT scan earlier this week and the

Stable CT scan. Five years+ living with Stage IV NSCLC
This is an excerpt from a caring bridge post I made yesterday. I also included a whole bunch of language stuff about covid-19and the need for each of us to do our part to protect one another, but I’ll leave that there. I am grateful that I just received happy CT scan results

We're all 'waxing' and 'waning'😉😊All at home again and sometimes feeling the boundaries😏 I wanted just some thoughts about my going to Manchester next week to have breast tumour checked, but I have a bad cough, due to the Radiotherapy

Can a small meningioma cause issues?
Hi, I'm the new girl in town. I had my first neurosurgeon appointment last week and I'm confused. I have a 2.5 cm meningioma called Hugo but apparently it's perfectly fine and not doing anything. According to the consultant it doesn't cause my symptoms like dizziness, headache, balance issues, sensitivity

Can anyone share experiences of External Beam Radiotherapy to the lungs?
Can anyone share their experiences of Radiotherapy to the lungs with me please? I think the plan is to treat a sub pleural nodule on the lower edge of my right lung and also taking the radiation beam through my body to another tumour in the left upper mid lobe. 5 days a week for 4 weeks and I will have

Has anyone found a colostomy to be the solution to incontinence. I wondered if it made things more controllable ?
I have had worse and worse incontinence since radiotherapy in 1999. A doctor I saw during this time suggested I might need an 'operation'. Should I abandon the proposed rectal prolapse surgery and have a colostomy?

A newcomer’s experience of the challenges thyroid conditions can bring.
Hello all, I began experiencing unwelcome thyroid symptoms at around 10 years of age and was only diagnosed with Graves’ disease at the age of 16 after many trips to the doctors where they were convinced my symptoms were caused by school pressures (though I knew it wasn’t). It was a frustrating time

Decreasing testosterone level
After chemo and radiation treatment for Gleason score of 9, 7 years ago for PC, my testosterone has since always been around 90-100, but recently it has dropped to 53. Any thoughts on how I can safely raise my testosterone level, or why it has dropped. Thanks for your help. Chuck

18 years with metastatic prostate cancer – operation number three, but no good news for me – the end game begins.
Well, it’s been a while since my last post, so I thought I’d provide an update. Last time round, I was coming to the end of my lutetium treatment which had produced disappointing results. Long story short, I decided to go ahead with the sixth cycle following a good psa reduction from the fifth treatment

Rectal prolapse repair
I am scheduled to have rectal prolapse repair having previously had a hysterectomy and radiotherapy. The surgery was not keyhole. I am concerned about outcomes. Has anyone else had similar?

Every month delayed in cancer treatment can raise risk of death by around 10%
Minimising delays to treatment could improve cancer survival rates, say researchers People whose treatment for cancer is delayed by even one month have in many cases a 6 to 13% higher risk of dying – a risk that keeps rising the longer their treatment does not begin – suggests research published online
