  • Forum Post: Re: Mesothelioma and secondary Brain Cancer

    Hello Honda I am sorry to read that your husbands meso has spread to the brain. We don't have experience of that but my husband put on weight when he took steroids on the chemotherapy. He had a huge appetite and the weight took a while to shift but it has come off now. All the best, Heather
  • Forum Post: Re: Pleurodesis

    Hi Amanda, I'm so pleased the pleurodesis went well, and hope your husband will soon be hme with you. I do so agree with your comment about the medical profession. We found that G's local oncoligist was particularly negative. We later found that he was only a "general" oncologist...
  • Forum Post: Re: Pleurodesis

    HI AJW4 I’m so sorry you and husband are having to suffer this vile disease. For the first few months after G was first diagnosed, he too was very angry; although I could understand how he felt, I was angry too, it was very hard to take the full force of his anger. Gradually he came...
  • Forum Post: Re: Very mixed emotions

    A quick update. G came home on Sunday evening. The discharge was by far the most traumatic part of his treatment. Having been told that his sodium was high enough to come home at one thirty, it was gone six before a doctor could be found to complete his paperwork! So on dark rainy night he was released...
  • Forum Post: Re: Very mixed emotions

    Thank you all for your support and kind words. I am feeling a little calmer now. From the start, G said he never wanted to be a burden to the family or me. When the time came, he would in his words "take myself off to the hospice". I had to explain that hospices don't work like hotels...

    Hello I think this is one of the drugs that Mary O'Brien (Royal Marsden) spoke of in her presentation. Her presentation is available on the meso uk site if that helps. Take care, Heather
  • Forum Post: Re: Mesothelioma and polyps

    Hello Jojo I am afraid I don't know/or heard of anyone that has experienced this but I am posting to keep it up there! My husband was diagnosed 4 years ago. I found a site in America called 'cancer grace' there is a forum on there and as well as patients responding with their experience...

  • Forum Post: Re: Pleurectomy

    Hello Helen and Val Regarding the chemo, my husband had the alimta with cisplatin (instead of the carboplatin) , the best thing was getting the right anti-sickness tablet for him. He tried domperidone and cyclazine but the only one that really helped was ondansetron. However, everyone is different...
