Thymic carcinoma

Hi everyone, my husband has just been diagnosed with thymic carcinoma, we are at a loss at the next step as we are not sure which hospital has the expertise to help, has anyone had any advice or experiences to share.

  • Welcome to the Cancer Chat community Munchy25 although I'm very sorry about your husband's diagnosis.

    Unfortunately there haven't been many recent discussions about thymic carcinoma on the forum but you may be able to connect with others through the Thymic UK Facebook Group

    Thymic UK also have a list of physicians that have experience in treating patients with thymoma and/or thymic carcinoma. I hope this helps give you a rough idea of where your husband may receive treatment but if you'd like to have a chat with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very helpful and will do all they can to answer your questions and work through any worries or concerns you may have.

    Best wishes to you both,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
