@mikejwhelan@John_Dabell I had chemo/immuno started in July: after one lung nodule was found. Not sure if Mets from head or new primary so was given 4 rounds chemo with keytruda then immuno alone. After 2 treatments tumor shrunk by half. Now have pnemitis and on rest and a short course of steroids.

Try not to be so hard on yourself if you are having a 'cancer moment'. These can be especially hard when you have one around other people who aren't aware of your health status. Read more about my experience below:

@maureenw678@Photo_SteveF In the process of doing the same thing, selling my home and moving back to the Uk to be with family. I’m on short term disability but will retire when that runs out.
@mikejwhelan I see so much of myself in your writing. Also H&N, I had 1 NED then 8 weeks later a lung nodule - chemo and immunotherapy all summer. The tumor shrunk by 50%, the bad news is chemo was stopped because too toxic, still getting Immunotherapy, but scared and wondering what's next.
@John_Dabell My H&N cancer journey is young, not even a year. @John_Dabell you have been and will continue to be an inspiration for me, knowing I am not alone. The one thing I didn't realize is how eating and the socialization around food and drink impacts quality of life. I wish you well.
#Cancer Dx with head and neck ca Oct 23. Head and neck resection, chemo radiation. 1st scan May 24.Nodule in the lung. Biopsied, onc thinks new malignancy and not Mets. Pet scan last week showed chest lymph involvement. More biopsies before treatment plan. want to move on quick
Hey Team Cancer, let’s do our best to stay as well connected during @ThanksCancer ‘s absence as we are when she is active on Twitter. Lots of us retweet pretty frequently so let’s tag each other to keep the communication going until she returns. Sound ok? 🥰
@TheCancerSutra I’m having a CT guided lung biopsy tomorrow after a lung nodule was discovered on a follow up scan on May 22. A month. I was told too many patents not enough resources. This at a major academic med center in TN. I have called every other day asking or begging for a quicker appt.
@TelegraphRoyals @AllisonPearson I went back to work 2 weeks post head and resection. Cont to work through chemo and radiation. Don’t insult me. I didn’t have a choice but get on with it.
@mikejwhelan I just finished 6 weeks chemo/radiation on Feb 9. The last two weeks of treatment were brutal. I have lived on high cal Boost for weeks, but no tube. My docs at Vanderbilt put me on a Gabapentin protocol before I had any pain and I didn’t need any opiates. Good luck!
