Patient Free Gift cards for cancer patients

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

 

I’m reposting this link for a free gift card. All you need is a screenshot of your name and diagnosis. I used a screenshot from MyChart.

 

They close the link once all the gift cards are claimed so if you’re interested, you have to be quick.

 

I got a $100 gift card from Amazon last year.

 

I would love it if you could follow up and let me know if they send you one! And hopefully I can post other freebies here soon.

Patient Anal melanoma

5 Upvotes

I was recently diagnosed with anal mucosal melanoma in my mid-30s. My doctor recommended opdualag and radiation. He recommended opdualag instead of opdivo + yervoy because opdualag has lower incidence of severe side effects, and since I also have psoriasis I’m likely to get side effects.

Opdualag was only approved a couple of years ago, but I wanted to ask anyone have experience with it?

Patient Life after cancer: What have you changed after cancer treatment?

12 Upvotes

People usually talk about diagnosis and treatment. Very few will share life after cancer. I heard people’s points of view totally changed… so it impacts careers, family, diet , fitness and everything. Sometimes it is very difficult to make the adjustments, so I would like to know how you do it.

Patient I can fell the cancer growing...

71 Upvotes

Hi,

After a few immuno treatments we discovered that my 3C endometrial cancer doesn't respond. (It shrunk by 80% with the combo chemio/immuno though). Immuno caused me very bad side effects as well.

So since my last chemio April first - or more exactly a few weeks after - it started to be active and to grow again.

And for the last month I can feel the pain coming back. I tried not to think about it but it is freaking me out, like I KNOW cancer is growing inside me.

It's not like it was before my verdict last Autumn as I know what it is now.

My teams is preparing me for a surgery in November (I have many test before because my nodes are at a risky place) but in the meanwhile I found it hard not to think about that thing growing inside me :(

How do you cope?

Hey everyone!

Noticed things have been especially dour here in the last few days (imagine that?). Thought we could use some off-topic conversation to remind ourselves that life outside of cancer exists. Read any good books recently? Seen any good movies? How's the weather out there today?

Patient Leiomiosarcoma

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am writing this because my father was recently diagnosed with leiomyosarcoma, and we would like to know if there is an oncologist specializing in sarcomas who could provide a recommendation or suggest treatment options, in addition to the chemotherapy currently being received.We were told that this treatment is one of the things that could save him, given that his cancer has metastasized, but we wanted to seek a second opinion just to be sure. Thank you very much.
