I’m so glad I listened to the oncologist on this. It felt counterintuitive to go for a walk when I was so fatigued from chemo. But it really did help. 1/2 #graphicmedicine #cansky #breastcancer #lifewriting

Remember for my YAs out there particularly…. More and more advocacy work is needed to show that with a YA #Cancer diagnosis there is much more at play. -time off work -fertility -financially planning -social circle pressure Just some of the things🫶🏻 #Cansky #Oncsky

Managing cancer care (appts, meds, messages, billing) is often a full-time job. This survey shows how admin burdens like #PriorAuth make people delay/forgo care. While most (gen non-elderly population) don't encounter billing, >1/3 who do delay/miss care because of it. #CanSky #OncSky #MedSky

The holidays are stressful. The holidays with cancer are especially stressful. I wrote a blog/made a vlog about some ways to manage this. Easier said than done, but well worth attempting. Blog: mantacares.com/blogs/newsle... Vlog: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQVk... #thankscancer #cansky #oncosky

Disinformation and Misinformation shared by Steven Bartlett in his so-called health podcast has multiple dubious claims, debunked ‘experts’ including Malhotra and people with stakes in wellness including the host who also makes £££ from the podcasts. 😡😡😡🧪

Re: SONIA results (CDK 4/6i 1st or 2nd line). Post-hoc analysis of lobular v. ductal stuck out for almost favoring 1st line in lobular. Small numbers, tight line in the forest plot --> even more intriguing. Follow up needed and/or consider this in decision making? Thoughts? #lobmob #oncsky #bcsm

I blamed myself so much when I was diagnosed. This was a) a waste of time and b) entirely understandable, from an emotional perspective. But it wasn’t my fault. And if you’ve been diagnosed it’s not your fault, either. #cansky #breastcancer #lifewriting #graphicmedicine #booksky
