    Nov 1 2024

    Send us a text

    This episode is hoping to show patients and the public that non-smoking lung cancer is a very real and very different type of lung cancer to smoking lung cancer.
    We discuss the great work that charities like Ruth Strauss foundation, Ros Wonders and EGFR UK do to support this patient group.

    Pollution may play a part, vaping may play a part.

    Dr Tom Newsom-Davis Chair-elect of the British Thoracic Oncology Group shines a light on this area of lung cancer.

    Radiotherapy is one of the silent workhorses of cancer treatment yet has very little coverage in the media.
    In this episode we talk to Amy Warnock one of our treatment radiographers about what to expect during radiotherapy and she talks through what will happen on the day to day basis of radiotherapy.

    We hope you enjoy.

    Chemotherapy is scary and we want to make it less scary for patients. Simple.

    We talk to senior chemotherapy nurse Rachel Bryce from University Hospital Plymouth - she is also Macmillan lead systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT) lead and UKONS SACT representative - about what patients can expect and what to look out for expect on chemotherapy.

    We think this is great discussion that could be used for anyone new to or dealing with chemotherapy.
