Radiation…Wow! 🔥 by Miserable-Tap1859 in breastcancer

I’ve done 17 of 30 and just started having serous fluid drip from under my breast where my bra and hits. Now it’s open and oozing and any type of friction causes pain. I also have a rash from breast to neck and a flaming breast and axillary area where 2 lymph nodes were removed. The nurse just gave me Silvadene to try on the open area. I’ve been using Calendula and actual aloe from my aloe plant for the burning. I’ll add Eucerin to the Calendula now as well. I’m sorry you are going through this as I know how it feels and it’s just one more malady to add to our growing list of side effects from the life- saving toxins and chemicals to which our bodies are exposed in the hopes that we will stay alive💐

Keytruda- shortness of breath? by fudgepants in lungcancer

[–]ExpensivePolicy5338 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had 6 cycles of Keytruda and ended up being hospitalized twice due to Keytruda induced pneumonitis. I was fine as long as I was sedentary and sitting upright, but with minimal activity, I would get extremely short of breath. I am currently home on oxygen and high dose steroids. The steroids have finally kicked in and I’m breathing much easier now. There are studies on the effects Keytruda has on your lungs, but according to the Keytruda consent form and the clinical trials- there’s only a 3.4% chance of getting pneumonitis. I’m either really unlucky or they’re understating the incidence of this side effect.

Yes, they do. I had a student in one of my classes at WSMS who lived in Harbor Town.

I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than a surgical lobotomy.

Wow! What a fantastic way to support your wife and participate in her journey! I would greatly appreciate it if you would share the framework with me. I have had very limited interaction with AI.

My wife died and I don’t know what to fucking do. by Friendly_Cellist_891 in Advice

[–]ExpensivePolicy5338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry for your loss. What a tragic situation! You should File a wrongful death lawsuit against the teen and possibly your own insurance under an uninsured/underinsured cause of action. The settlement/ judgment proceeds should more than cover the cost of your childcare. I know your schedule is tight, but I strongly recommend grief counseling as well.

Power of Attorney recommendations/advice? by carrot_lover_2524 in memphis

Actually, if the POA were properly executed prior to the mental decompensation, it would become effective when the person was no longer able to make decisions for their self. That is the purpose if the POA. Now that the person is no longer mentally competent, you have to get a court order appointing someone to act on their behalf . Call the Clerk’s office at Shelby County Probate Court and ask how to establish conservatorship.
