Good find, @hopeful33250. Dr. Lewis' interview is packed with relevant info specific to the NETs patient.

How are you managing these days with the COVID-19 stay home restrictions and dealing with NETs? Are you still getting treatments at your care center? Have consults been moved to phone or video consults?

I'm doing fine now - did have the flu end of February/beginning of March with no cough, but major fatigue, muscle aches, fever, and diarrhea - felt as bad as having chemo infusions! However, started back with after-breast surgery exercises and walking and feeling human again. The talk was interesting, but I'm still concerned as my NET was in breast, although I've been told it is not a primary. Hasn't shown up anywhere else at this time and I'm hoping it never ever shows up again!

I get my Lanreotide injection at a local Infusion Center. I got mine as scheduled. I wore a mask, they took my temp before checking in and they limit the number of patients in waiting room. I was in and out quickly. Scheduled for next injection next month.

Doing pretty good here, I had bad sinus infection/flu end of January first part of February glad that’s over just need some rain here to wash all this pollen away now. I was supposed to have an appointment in March with my dr at the va breast clinic but they rescheduled all appointments for now. Am staying home and hope y’all are staying safe 🙏

Thanks for sharing this video.
