Diagnosed 2006 with two malignant brain tumors. Radiation, Chemotherapy 4.5 years, Meditation, Chinese herbs, acupuncture, Ruta 6, thalidomide, Apricot kernels, etc........  Amazing oncologist. 

Now having annual MRI scans to keep an eye on them but no change in 13 years. 

Happy to talk to newly diagnosed people on their treatment journey. 

Hi Everyone, Its almost two years ago I was diagnosed with lower Gastro Intestinal Cancer stage 4 metastisised, I have now had 28 chemos and am up to my third PIPAC treatment which is chemo via laproscope directly to the area.

Hi there, I had a smart port put in about 4 weeks ago, and I am having immunotherapy every 3 weeks, and I have had no problems at all, however the port in the last week seems to protrude more in my chest. I just wonder if this is normal ? 

Diagnosed with stage one melonoma margins removed and clear, Defenitley not the worse diagnosis completely aware of that , but i think to some degree we do go through the same thoughts and emotions no matter the diagnosis...talking to someone you dont neccesarily know takes out the stress of having to stay strong , worrying about not overreacting , and askng questions maybe you might feel are not valid or a "silly to ask "  but understands what your going through i believe is a massive support so im here to help !

I just had an ultrasound today on my neck under jawline, due to a sore lump there. My gp thought it might be a stone through a saliva gland.

I am new here, and thank goodness this popped into my browser before I chewed my fingers all the way to the bone.
