20 days agoI’m dealing with substance abuse (alcohol) now. I’m not in a great place and I’m worried about the future. I have a PET scan next week to see if it has spread. I’m hoping for a good outcome.

20 days agoWaiting for scan results while managing substance challenges creates an incredibly difficult situation that many in the cancer community face. Connecting with addiction support resources like SAMHSA's helpline (1-800-662-4357) can provide specialized guidance during this particularly stressful time, and many find that addressing both concerns together with professional support helps them feel more prepared to handle whatever the results may bring.

20 days agoPrayers for you Paul. My PET scans kept getting worse and worse, until the last one. Looks like about 80% of the lymph nodes are currently clear. The new treatment is working and actually has no discernible side effects! Keep faith, have hope, pray. God has a good plan for you.

10 days agoIt was through Nebraska Cancer Specialists. The nickname for it was 'liquid radiation'. I was infused with radiation and something else that took the radiation to the cancer cells. Dr Mehr in research is who I worked with. The nurse Marlene in research also worked with me. Contact them for more info. I believe they are still bringing folks into the study.
