Re: Bowel cancer any tips?
In hospital today, my latest scan shows I'm stable .... go me. I'd love to know why people insist on watching their phone on full volume when headsets are so cheap. If it wasn't a chemo ward I would moan.

Re: Bowel cancer any tips?
Had chemo this week and my tumour levels are dropping so it's doing its work. Still have litres of fluid in my belly making look like a trans mum to be.
Depressed to read this woman who rejected chemo to cure cancer with a juice diet. I've met lots of people like this who are essentially committing suicide.

Good news Vespa. Depressing reading about that lady.
What u think of Tabentafusp? or something like that. My friend is considering looking into it - kinda last resort kinda thing - but not alot known about it. Or should I say, it seems rather new and experimental from my googling.

It's immunotherapy I'd give it a whirl if the doctors prescribe it. Last year the UK changed the law that allowed any drug authorised in the USA to be used in the UK if the drug company applies for it. No further testing needed. Your friend should talk to their doctor.

Re: Bowel cancer any tips?
Since getting cancer I've had trouble listening to music because it made me very sad, however today I'm having chemo and slapped on some spotty and I'm loving it.

Chillax mate. I find listening to music sometimes sad, as it makes me feel melancholy thinking about certain times in my life, but it can be very relaxing too.

Indeed.
If I ever need to chill I’ll stick on some Slipknot or Godsmack and just vibe

+1
I always listen to music during my daily commute. I couldn't live without it tbh.

Re: Bowel cancer any tips?
When for an eye test today for new reading glasses. Because I'm disabled I took my certificate to show my disability benefits. The guy reads it and asks what my disability was, I tell him I have terminal cancer and he asks if cancer is a disability.
So we fuck off to Specsavers nearby which fitted us in and had a really nice independent coffee shop next door.
I normally support independent shops but some of the people who work there have a goose like wit.
Specsavers are pretty easy going, some old lady was really chatty with us in the waiting room.

Re: Bowel cancer any tips?
Was very pleasantly surprised with everything to do with Specsavers. I'd been going to my local optician for years, but then the prices went up, and he suddenly seemed to be not that bothered.
Specsavers are always very busy in my local branch, but they get you through the system efficiently and quickly. Definitely would recommend them.
