Hello All,
While speaking with the Macmillan Lung Cancer Specialist Nurse on Thursday, I was informed that my PD-L1 results showed less than 1% and that Immunotherapy would not be suitable.
I am now awaiting an appointment to speak with an oncologist to see where we go from here.
Take Care,
Bob
Hi Bob, I am sorry to hear that. I hope the appointment comes through soon for you.
Hi Lujo,
I received a phone call at 9am this morning asking if I could fill a cancellation with the consultant; I was seen at 11am.
This Chemo+Immunotherapy was discussed but it was said that it can be quite damaging for some and only extends life for a short time.
I will be starting radiotherapy for 5 sessions quite soon but this is only to relieve a painful area where muscle is involved.
Best Wishes for your Mum's way forward.
