    I’ve been diagnosed with early stage liver cancer. I have not started treatment yet which will be ablation surgery. A few months ago, I started feeling fatigue before the diagnosis. Is this possible or just some sort of mental issue. I also find if I do something like walking 3-4 miles, it takes me twice as long to recover. This used to be easy for me golfing. I would walk 18 holes. Now it takes two full days to recover. That being said I am 72 yrs old.

    Keytruda is a dangerous drug. I lose eyesight second day of treatment. Now my left eye stays blurry. Lung infection. Itching. Bone pain. Barely walk. Garbage. I stopped it. Know why they push it? Cost is 56,000.00. a session. I had full hysterectomy. 6 months later both clear cell and endometrial cancers came back with a third. Tissue. I was suppose to get radiation. Oh no they cant makw money off of that so they tell me chemo for 6 weeks plus immunotherapy. After i told them no to keytruda. The cancer center called and called to get me to change my mind. A person who works for their finance department said dont worry meficare covers 80% we'll pay the 20% . 2,400.00. Then she said I told them to go ahead and continue to give it. I called the doctor. Dr. Wouldnt talk to me. So i told her nurse NO!. Their not profiting off of me.

    Understanding the costs and benefits of investing in cancer Posted by: Brian Ferguson, Posted on: 1 November 2016 - Understanding the costs associated with cancer is vital in order that resources are used for maximum effect. And investing in prevention and early intervention is critical if we are going to reduce the emotional and physical impact of cancer on individuals, families, friends and those that care for people with cancer. Calculating the health care and wider costs of cancer - as well as assessing the cost-effectiveness of prevention, early intervention and treatment - is a fundamental challenge faced by decision makers across the health and social care system. The costs of cancer can be felt at an individual level: work by Macmillan has shown that most (83%) cancer patients incur an average cost of £570 per month as a result of their illness. It can also be felt in the national economy: Oxford University estimate the cost of cancer to the economy is £7.6 billion a year due to premature deaths and time taken off work. Costs and the health system The Independent Cancer Taskforce Report (ICTR) set out the need for there to be clearer accountability of spend on cancer and emphasised the need for action in prevention and early diagnosis to reduce the longer term burden on the health system. It says: “The National Audit Office has estimated cancer services cost the NHS approximately £6.7bn per annum in 2012/13. The Five Year Forward View projections indicate that this will grow by about 9% a year, implying a total of £13bn by 2020/21.” Recommendation 95 in the strategy specifically asks that: “NHS England and Public Health England should work with Monitor and other bodies to consider how to develop better health economic evaluation of new service models and interventions.” We have a dedicated health economics team that commissions work to assess the economic impact of prevention and early intervention, and an example of this is recent work on bowel cancer in direct response to Taskforce Recommendation 95. This work has summarised the available cost-effectiveness evidence. Cost-effectiveness is a key concept in health economics and is concerned with the value we get from the money spent - where value is often expressed in terms of improving both survival and quality of life. For instance if we invested resources in the best possible way in bowel cancer then we would see improvements in survival, and also improvements in the quality of life of individuals who are staged earlier and therefore do not suffer the more unpleasant effects of treatment that could potentially be avoided. This is why a ‘return on investment’ (RoI) type approach has been followed in this work: how do we make sure that resources are invested in such a way that we achieve health gains at the same time as avoiding health care and other system costs further down the line.

    One thing I wish I knew before being involved with my friends final care was that the hospital didn't want her to die in the hospital. At the very end we were abruptly moved to another facility for her death. They were concerned about their treatment statistics and their rating with the insurance providers. In my opinion it was abrupt and stressful for her to be transported in moved within hours of her death with the only purpose being to protect the hospitals death metrics.

    The doctors make these procedures sound easy for the patient. I wish the doctors would go into a more detailed explanation of what will take place before and after transplant. They don't tell the patient about the injections to make the body produce more stem cells, that it can take up to three or more days to harvest the required amount of stem cells, that the drugs they use for the chemo treatment before transplant can be more dangerous than the procedure. Most of all, the various outcomes that can happen after transplant.

      @bencanevari4056 Not only are you not a human, but in my husband's case, I believe the doctors disagreed so much over treatment options that it led to no treatment given at all. The "elite" members of his team thought the problem was that my husband was not responding to the drugs, our oncologist believed it was something else. By the time he saw a bone marrow specialist, he was beyond much help except for a full bone marrow transplant, which he rused without question because the stem cell transplant went so wrong. I wish you luck and fight like hell against this unforgiving disease.

I think managing this gave him some peace. He wanted to talk about death and I'm glad we managed the strength to talk about it with him. he hated hospitals with all his might and I'm very grateful he could die at home with us. On his last day, he knew. Even though extremely weak and hallucinating prior, he came to for a brief period of time and he hugged me hard and I got to say that I loved him and that is a moment I will never ever forget. I know you're with the stars now, Matko, and I hope you check on us from time to time. I love you and think about you all the time. your sister, I.
