Re: Propranolol and Capecitabine Synergy

Re: Gene Editing Treatment - Advanced CRC

Definitely promising, if the delivery method holds up in trials, this could be a real game changer for late-stage CRC. Fingers crossed for strong follow-up data.

Re: What to do for continuous anal pain

Chronic pain like that can be incredibly draining, especially when it feels like there’s no break from it.

Re: WOW is it ever quiet in here !!!

Yeah, it’s been super quiet lately. Hopefully, that means people are doing well. I still check in sometimes, just to see how everyone’s holding up. Life gets busy, but it’s nice to know the regulars are still around.

Re: Scared about symptoms...

It’s hard to shake that feeling of being the “unlucky one,” even when the odds are technically in your favor. I was in a similar headspace, couldn’t stop running through worst-case scenarios in my head, especially late at night. Therapy helped, but honestly, so did finding little ways to calm my sys...

Re: Scared about symptoms...

Does colon cancer run in your family. Keep us posted, Lee Thanks, Lee! I'm 28 years old. I talked a lot with the doctor t...
