As part of our 2nd annual Thymic Malignancy Awareness Month, ThymicUK are holding a face-to-face patient meeting at Guy’s Cancer Centre with talks from allied healthcare professionals and a chance to socialise and catch up with group members.

Presentations on the day will include talks from a cancer centre dietician, occupational therapist and physiotherapist.

TOPICS WILL INCLUDE:

• Eating well before and after treatment
• How to manage breathlessness
• Fatigue and anxiety (interactive session)
• Promoting living well with and beyond cancer

There will be an opportunity to ask questions both leading up to and after the talks.
