  • Hi Noda,

    Sorry for the position you are in with the relapse, that's really horrible.

    I am a breast cancer person so not in the same position as you but just wanted to make sure you are aware of the 'search function' on the forum.  When you are asking a question about a specific drug or treatment the search function can be very useful as it will bring up older posts.  It's especially useful if your type of cancer or treatment isn't so common as there may not be any recent posts from people in the same position as you.

    I did a search myself on the forum for Brentuximab and came across these posts
    https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/cancer-chat/posts?query=brentuximab

    To run a search you go to the blue bar towards the top of the page and click on 'Search forum'.

    Even though I have a different type of cancer to you hopefully I can still offer you some support as you go through this.  Anyway, just thought it might help to use the search function while you wait to see if anyone replies (it can be quiet on here at the weekend and evenings).

    Best wishes,

    LJx

  • Thanks Noda.  No real symptoms just now and not having many medication side effects, so all good until the next tumour forms, and who knows when that will be.

    Hope you have a good New Year despite all this cancer stuff.
