🎀 KNOW YOUR NORMAL -

Breast cancer awareness starts with knowing your own body.
Be familiar with how your breasts normally look and feel—and don’t ignore a new or unusual change.

Notice. Check. Act early.
Because early detection can make a difference.

NAVRATRI FASTING & CANCER CARE 🙏🎗️

Navratri fasting is a spiritual practice, but cancer patients should take extra precautions.

⚠️ Fasting may worsen: Weakness, dehydration, nausea, poor appetite and weight loss—especially during cancer treatment.

👨‍⚕️ Before fasting: Consult your oncologist. Avoid strict fasting if you are underweight, losing weight, eating poorly or experiencing vomiting, diarrhea or dizziness.

✅ If permitted to fast:

* Stay well hydrated.
* Ensure adequate calories and protein.
* Eat small, frequent meals.
* Choose nutritious, easy-to-digest foods.

🚨 Stop fasting and seek medical advice if you develop severe weakness, dizziness, palpitations, fever, vomiting or difficulty eating or drinking.

💚 Remember: Your health comes first. During cancer treatment, proper nutrition is essential.

When in doubt, consult your oncologist before fasting.
❤️

Geriatric oncology is the branch of oncology that provides holistic, patient-centered cancer care for older adults, addressing not only the cancer but also the individual’s overall health, function, independence, and quality of life.

Had the privilege of addressing the Senior Citizens Forum on the importance of cancer screening and the principles of geriatric oncology.

The session focused on the value of early detection, age-appropriate screening, recognizing warning signs, and the fact that chronological age alone should never determine cancer treatment. With timely diagnosis and individualized care, many older adults can achieve excellent outcomes while maintaining their quality of life.

Grateful for the engaging discussions and the opportunity to promote healthy ageing through cancer awareness.

Cancer doesn’t discriminate by age!!

While most cancers occur later in life, more young adults are being diagnosed than ever before. Persistent symptoms deserve attention—regardless of how young or healthy you are. Early diagnosis saves lives.

🩸 Why are blood tests done before every chemotherapy session?

They’re not just routine—they’re essential for your safety.

Before chemotherapy, your blood tests help your doctor check:
✨ White blood cell count – to ensure your body can fight infections.
❤️ Hemoglobin – to see if you’re strong enough for treatment.
🩸 Platelet count – to reduce the risk of bleeding.
🧪 Kidney and liver function – to make sure your body can process chemotherapy safely.

These results help your oncologist decide whether to proceed with treatment, adjust the dose, or delay chemotherapy if needed. Every blood test is a step toward safer, more personalized cancer care.

Knowledge empowers patients and caregivers. 💙
