#Cancer We have more, not less. During WWI & II, soldiers exposed to mustard gas had low white blood cell counts. Scientists use this to kill cancer cells aka #chemotherapy. But despite pain & costs, it prolongs life by only 2.1 months. Survival to the 5-year mark appears to be 1-2%. 🧵 to follow.

Saw my oncologist yesterday and discussed my CT scan results and blood work. My tumors are stable, my CEA and Alkaline Phosphatase numbers (tumor markers) are at their lowest levels yet. So doing good. #chemo #chemotherapy #stage4cancer #coloncancer

I'm reminded when I see the Common Periwinkle - Vinca Major of a related plant, the Madagascar Periwinkle - Vinca Rosea. It's the source of Vincristine, a #chemotherapy drug that those of us who have #Lymphoma behind us are grateful for.

MRI reveals linked heart and brain damage in chemotherapy patients The finding suggests cardiotoxicity and neurotoxicity may be interrelated comorbidities rather than independent side effects.

Breast cancer patients who develop cardiac dysfunction during neoadjuvant chemotherapy also experience significantly greater brain tissue loss than those whose heart function remains stable #radiology #breastcancer #chemotherapy #MRI

#3 — Her second kidney's #cancer went into high gear around the same time as completed her #transplant. When I noticed she was still losing weight, the doctors agreed they needed to complete a second scan and they found the second malignant cancer.

This led to #chemotherapy 26 days ago.

I’ve named my pain management medication combos that get me through my #chemotherapy cycles of #paclitaxel + #carboplatin.

Tramadol Sandwich for general join pains staggered throughout the day (1000mg paracetamol taken with 50mg tramadol)

Got my bloodwork back and my cancer markers dropped dramatically. My CEA went from 64.8 to 49.1 (supposed to be bellow 2.4) and my Alkaline Phosphatase dropped from 273 to 208 (supposed to be bellow 144). those are pretty big drops. #cancer #coloncancer #chemo #chemotherapy #stage4cancer

Cai and Tang report a 26-year-old male with aggressive T-LGLL and a near tetraploid karyotype. After failing #chemotherapy, he achieved complete remission with Tislelizumab and Pentostatin. No relapse at 6 months suggests a new role for #immunotherapy in aggressive T-LGLL.
