Cryotherapy

Hi Gill ABD

I don't have any experience with cryotherapy but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. 

I've done a search in the group looking for previous posts which mention cryotherapy and found these for you to have a look through. You could reply to any of the more recent posters if you think they might be able to help you further.

As you mentioned that cryotherapy is used to treat secondary liver cancer it might be an idea to also join and post your question in that group. If this is something that you'd like to do clicking here will take you to the group where you can then join and post in the same way as you did here.

Hi LeoD382 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

I have no knowledge of how cryotherapy is done as it's not a procedure that I've had. You could look at the same link that I gave to Gill ABD to read about other people's experience of it.

I noticed that you haven't joined any groups yet but assume that you have kidney cancer as you've replied to this post. To get the most out of the community it's best to join the group as you can then start your own post and you'll receive notifications when others post. To do this, click on the banner at the bottom of the page which says 'click to join'. This is a link to the help page with step-by-step instructions if you need them.

When you have a minute it would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

If you have any problem navigating the community I'll be pleased to try and help.

Hello Gill, I have not had any personal experience with Cryotherapy for secondary liver cancer, but I have read the NICE report you mentioned. From what I understand, it is a relatively new treatment option and has shown some promise in clinical trials. It's already been three months since you started the thread. If you're still interested, I suggest you look here for more details about Cryotherapy adriameduae.com/.../ . I believe it is still being investigated and studied further to determine its efficacy. I hope this helps, and best of luck to you.
