        Thank you so much for sharing this! After another good MRI result today, I'm thinking about all the things you talk about. May your health continue!

              Hi Sarah, I haven’t done interferon but have been on Tafinlar-Mekinist combo for 18 months now, and my once regular cycle is totally off. When I bring it up with my oncologist, I’m told that it isn’t a known side effect, even though a correspondent of mine who takes same combo and is younger than me has had similar thing happen. (I’m almost 45, so in my case it could well be perimenopause.) You’re right to be concerned and I hope you find an answer!

                    Thirding or fourthing Remicade infusions, also chiming in to recommend Dr Anna Pavlick at NYU Cancer Center if Sloan is booked up. I’ve had excellent care there and they got the colitis under control very skilfully.

                                That's amazing! Break a leg! (Or is that not the wish for sporting events??) Glad your oncologist is enabling you. I'm seeing mine in a couple weeks and wondering if I should hit her up for a donation! 🙂
