Cancer and Heart Disease are far too common these days in both Men and Women and with these illnesses, Mental Health can play a major part in a patient's recovery.
Nothing prepares us for that dreaded diagnosis of Cancer, a sudden Heart Attack, or Cardiac arrest without warning.
Filling in the blanks.
Martin & Patrick discuss their personal experiences, the treatment, the support, family, and friends, not to mention mental health, what resources are available, both medical and financial, and what outside support one can tap into.
Discussions around everyday life, news, sports, hobbies arts and crafts may also feature as we discuss distractions from the challenges faced every day.
From time to time special guests and Celebrity guests are invited into the studio to discuss matters relating to their life and health experience, including healthcare professionals who can inject some alternative insight into a complex subjects.
Remember, our Podcasts are light-hearted, funny, interesting, and informative and should prove interesting and hopefully addictive as we grow our listeners and contributors worldwide.
Who's Tom & Dick
Farmer Giles
Season 2, Episode 36
Its a chance for the boy's to get together again today and have a chat.
Although Martin gave us an update on his Cancer this week we delve into his current treatment "Immunotherapy" and its possible side effects.
Immunotherapy uses our immune system to fight cancer. It works by helping the immune system recognise and attack cancer cells.
You might have immunotherapy on its own or with other cancer treatments. Immunotherapy is a standard treatment for some types of cancer. And it is in clinical trials for other types of cancer.
There are different types of immunotherapy. We have information about the following types of immunotherapies:
- monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)
- checkpoint inhibitors
- vaccines
- cytokines
- CAR T-cell therapy
Some types of immunotherapies are also called targeted treatments or biological therapies.
The boy's also talk about the touchy subject of Piles (Hemorrhoids) rhyming cockney slang "Farmer Giles" Piles, discussing diagnosis, causes and treatments.
Hemorrhoids (HEM-uh-roids), also called piles, are swollen veins in the anus and lower rectum. Hemorrhoids are similar to varicose veins. Hemorrhoids can develop inside the rectum, called internal hemorrhoids. They also can develop under the skin around the anus, called external hemorrhoids
There is also a chance for Martins Joke of the week
