Description: In this powerful episode, Naman Julka-Anderson and Jo McNamara sit down with Meera Shah. Meera trained as a dentist and following a range of roles as a junior, focused on the treatment of patients with special needs.
Whilst expecting her first child she noticed increasing pain in her chest, back and shoulders, with weakness of the upper body over time. When her son was 6 months old, she was diagnosed with a solitary bone plasmacytoma of the sternum. This was treated with radiotherapy. Due to the large tumour size, recovery was slow and Meera took many years to regain some upper body strength. She had to leave her role in clinical dentistry and go back to the drawing board. In 2018, Meera progressed to multiple myeloma, with multiple tumours in both femori and tibia. This was treated in 2019 with chemotherapy and an autologous stem cell transplant. She has since been on maintenance chemotherapy. There was a discussion of potential radiotherapy to both knees, but fortunately wasn’t required in the end.
Unable to return to clinical practice, Meera completed her Diploma in Healthcare Professions Education. She now works part time in postgraduate dental education at NHSE and also delivers freelance education in the cancer space. Her primary focus is to educate healthcare professionals on the impact of living with a chronic condition/incurable cancer, not just on patients, but to the whole family, especially children. Her main message is to ensure patients are given personalised care based on their own personal needs. She also volunteers for Shine Cancer Support, supporting their network for young adults from minoritised ethnic backgrounds, and is a trustee for National Voices.
This episode is a deep dive into Meera’s cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatments, her family life and how things could have been improved for her care.

*Jo Collins recommends searching the SPS website before referring to the above as they regularly update documents/add new Q&As, and published medicines information very quickly becomes outdated. I’d also suggest discussing with your pharmacy team who can check with the manufacturer or review the literature for you- chances are they’ve been asked before, especially if they have a medicines information service.

Government figures show that uptake of bowel, cervical and, in some cases, breast screening is lower among ethnic minorities than among their white counterparts. In ethnically diverse areas, the attendance of bowel screening is 38% compared to up to 58% in other areas, and women from ethnic minority groups are more than 50% less likely than white women to attend a cervical screening. [1]
[1] PHE Screening inequalities: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nhs-population-screening-inequalities-strategy/phe-screening-inequalities-strategy
Triple negative breast cancer, an aggressive form of the disease, disproportionately affects black women [2]. Other cancers which, according to Cancer Research, are more prevalent in the black community are myeloma (a type of blood cancer), womb and stomach cancers, while both black and Asian people are at higher risk than white people of contracting liver cancer. Black men are twice as likely as white men to get prostate cancer in their lifetime [3], but, said Oladele: “Men from the BAME community struggle to self-refer to doctors when they first notice signs and symptoms, despite being in pain.”

Naman Julka-Anderson andJo McNamara catch up with Nick Bennett as part of the Education and Workforce Development Series (Part 18)
Discussion about mental fitness and the FIKA mental fitness platform.
To use this podcast as CPD, look at these reflection points:
1) Mindset. Reflect on the notion of Mental Fitness. Consider that much like physical exercise and fitness you can build and improve your mental health through regular mental activities as an individual and even better, collectively as part of a team. It’s a common misconception that mental skills like confidence and positivity are simply character traits, you either have it or you don’t. This is not true. These mental skills that can be learnt and improved with practice of brief psychological informed activities. Reflecting on this potential you have to improve your mental strength is a growth mindset.
2) Behaviour change. While considering this growth mindset. Reflect on the behaviours you and your teams have when working together. Consider yourself as a role model. Your behaviours are contagious and by role modeling you have the potential to encourage a growth mindset within your team.
3) Commit to act. Like any other form of exercise, you need to act to build your mental fitness. As a role model in your team commit to starting a gratitude wave in an upcoming meeting with your team. How does this work? Simply request a few minutes at the start of the meeting and explain to the team you are about to start a gratitude wave. Choose a team member and publicly declare some gratitude for them, recognise them and share gratitude for what they contribute to the team. Then ask that person to choose another colleague and share gratitude for them and so on. Once everyone has spoken, ask how everyone feels.

Bonus podcast where Naman Julka-Anderson and Jo McNamara catch up with Erin Kennedy MBE who discusses her career as a Paralympic champion rower and thriving with breast cancer.
To use this podcast as CPD, look at these reflection points from Erin herself:
I think for me it’s all about considering the individual within the diagnosis and treatment plan. Just because you consent to treatment and are this set pathway, doesn’t mean you can’t still make choices and have some great opportunities.
1) Giving the feeling of choice - whether over how/where you have your treatment or even what pathways are open to you…. Even if there aren’t that many!
2) Encouraging individuals to still live their lives and do what they can to support them to do so. My oncologist supported me going to the Europeans because she knew it was the right thing for my mental health AND safe to do so.
3) Demonstrating that they are with you all the way! I haven’t had this from any of my team but it’s something that is so important, having spent all my time in a team sport. Having people in your corner is key and it makes you feel so much better about the challenges ahead.

Discussion around sexual care for patients.
Naman Julka-Anderson catches up with Samantha Evans as part of the Education and Workforce Development series (Part 1).
Reflective points and tips:
1) Do not assume your patient isn't interested in enjoying sex because they're older, have cancer, single or have a disability.
2) Do not assume the sexual orientation of your patient.
3) Open the conversation by explaining how treatment may impact upon sexual health, intimacy and pleasure including vaginal tightness, dryness, painful sex, decreased sexual sensation, erectile issues, loss of confidence and low libido and reassure your patients that there is plenty of practical help, advice and products to help them regain their sexual function. ( see below).
4) Learn about what practical help is available including sexual lubricants, moisturisers, skin safe sex toys, and dilators and other products as well as pelvic health physiotherapy and psychosexual therapy.
5) Educate yourself about why ingredients matter in sexual lubricants and vaginal moisturisers and the importance of using skin safe dilators and sex toys.
6) Think beyond PIV sex, many people enjoy great sex beyond penetration, so educate yourself about the many ways people enjoy sexual intimacy and pleasure, including sex toys, lubricants, vaginal moisturisers and other products that can help them regain their sexual function, reclaim their sex life and make it fun. If you are unsure about what to say or recommend, signpost your patients to Jo Divine for more advice.
