Hey all, I am starting this thread to give us a place to meet up and check in. We all know this "ain't Facebook" and since some of us have left the boards recently let's have a roll call and start fresh here. Some of the "IBC ladies" and other threads have gone a bit untended so let's see who we are:

I'll go first: dx June 2015 TN IBC, not NED but hoping to get there.

IBC is such a different diagnosis than so many of the other types of BC I think it is really important for us to talk and share and learn from each other.

      
        I am taking a "board break" mid June 2016, I will be back but mentally exhausted right now. Peace be with all of you. Diagnosed at 46 triple negative IBC. Mets to skin, lungs, bones.

Mamacure--I found these instructions about Mepitel that you might find helpful... https://www.rvh.on.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/M...

Interesting because the rad techs removed the film after my last treatment and this says to leave it on for 2 weeks! These instructions don't seem to indicate that any weekly changing is necessary so not sure why my RO had them do so. Hmmmm.

I'm glad you're doing well. Happy Thanksgiving to you!
