  • Why do you feel lucky to be able to have inmuntherapy i had two of this and i swallon up like a ballon which lead to me having to have a drain fitted for the fluid retained 6ltr i might add.This in turn created blood clogs omedema legs had to be bandaged.shortness off breath could hardly walk with the weight of my legs.my consultant advised agaist having it again but my family wanted me to have it just once more.Do i go with what my family says or do i take the advice of my consultant...Can anyone help

  • So sorry to hear you have been through a rough time with treatment. Cancer has touched my family several times with my dad being the most recent. All I can say is that you are the most important person in this and to gather all the information, counselling and support available to you and use those experiences to decide what is right for you. Mental health support is so important as you will need strength to deal with the consequences of any decision so prioritise your well-being from all aspects. If your family truly care for you I hope they will support whatever you decide. Best wishes. ️
