🚨 TIME TOXICITY in Cancer Care ⏰ How much of a patient’s remaining life is spent in hospitals instead of at home? 🏥💔 A first-of-its-kind prospective Indian study (CTRI/2023/05/053281) finds: 🧬 92 patients with advanced cancers 🕰️ Mean time toxicity = 226 hrs / 2 months (~9 days) ⚖️ 17% of life spent in healthcare-related activities 🚗 Travel & waiting time = 🔝 contributors 💉 Only ~1/8 of time adds real treatment value 💡 Higher QoL → lower time toxicity 🎯 Implication: For many with limited survival, time may be the most precious currency. 👉 Oncologists must weigh not only drug toxicity… but time toxicity. 📖 Mailankody et al., BMJ Supportive & Palliative Care, 2025 🔗doi.org/10.1136/spcare… #PalliativeCare #OncoTwitter #MedTwitter #BMJ @OncoAlert @esmo_open @ASCO @myESMO @bmj_latest

By then, cancer is already ahead of you. #Breastcancer 👙does not give warnings. No alarms⏰. No early pain😩. Silence 🤫is how it wins. Take charge🙌🏾. Book that mammogram yourself🫵🏽.

You are worth the screening🔍. 💗 Share 🔁this with a woman you love. Remind her: The best gift is a life 🕊️saved early.

5. You say you’re fighting… but you’re skipping appointments.

A Thread ive wanted to post for a long time 🧵 5 things I’d tell you as an oncologist… if I wasn’t afraid to hurt your feelings. Some truths save lives. Some sting. But silence? That one kills. Let’s go: 👇 #OncologyUnfiltered #MedTwitter #HardTruthsSaveLives

4. You want personalized care… but don’t tell me the truth.

3. You fear chemo more than the cancer killing you.

2. Google is not your oncologist. Neither is your herbalist uncle.
