Is this injection worth taking

  • Dear Glynisann,

    Welcome to the Macmillan Online Community Forum. I’m Kirstine, one of the Cancer Information Nurse Specialists here at the Macmillan Support Line. I hope you find this a warm and welcoming place to ask questions and get support.

    We’d be happy to try to provide information for you, but we will need some more details to do that accurately. If you are happy to ask on this platform it would help us to know what your diagnosis is, which chemotherapy you have had and which injection you are asking us about please?

    When we know what your diagnosis is we can also direct you to patient forums with that condition as a focus that you may find helpful too.

    We can chat with you privately if you prefer on the number below.

    With best wishes,

    Kirstine – Macmillan

    Cancer Information Nurse Specialist
