FLUOROURACIL vs FLUOROURACIL CREAM

Finally got my chemo schedule. Next week get my port in and start labs. Already got my chemo hair cut, #2 clipper, need to pull out my winter wool for under my hard hat. Cycle 1 is the next Monday, Adrucil- Fluorouracil, Carboplatin and 96 hrs of Keytruda-Pembrolizumab, pump coming out that Friday.

My dad was his DPOA (durable power of attorney). Scheduled a doctor's appointment, picked him up, and to

I am overwhelmed by information. They told him today that he will have a port placed. He has run out of sick time at work but he works from home so I'm curious what people's experience has been with WFH and being on chemo. Were you still able to work? What side effects made it hard to work? Does the

I want to post some specifics about my case. I'm doing this for two reasons. First, I'm collecting my own thoughts before I write a 2017 summary for myself and my family. Second, and most importantly, I'm going to put a lot of keywords in here so other people with a colorectal cancer diagnosis (or s

I'm a black 24 yo, and I finally decided to listen to the Rock music that gets so much praise. Outside of 3 albums, my only experience with rock music is from video game soundtracks, movies and TV commercials. I tried to go into each one with an open mind and as blind as possible, doing research aft

I went on a date last night with somebody that I met on an app. Let’s just say, the second I walked into the meeting place, I instantly knew I wasn’t attracted to him. Anyway, like most women do, I gave it a conversation to see if I’d be proven wrong. Unfortunately I was not. He didn’t ask me any qu

I, 45 M have one son, 16 M. He recently got his drivers license and a job at a small ice cream shop. His mother left almost as soon as he turned one, so we have a very open relationship. He tells me stuff most kids don't feel comfortable telling their parents and I'm so grateful for that, so when i
