Neuroendocrine Cancer: I hadn’t heard of it until I was diagnosed with it
My diagnosis came with many strange words including, “carcinoid” and “neuroendocrine” ……… can you spell that please, I said to the doctor. I had a
Here is the monthly summary of January 2025 on RonnyAllan.NET
The list of posts this month was totally unexpected! Every share helps someone understand or even work towards a diagnosis, discovery of the best doctors and treatments. The selection of top posts this month really shows the breadth of subjects applicable to Neuroendocrine Cancer that need to be considered. Click on the each of the 10 posts to read.
One reason I’m thankful is because I continue to interleave personal life via short motorhome breaks or other holidays/adventures and maintenance of my blog and other social media sites. I was distracted by many personal things, but still seemed to accumulate over 20,000 blog views thanks to your continued support. This was a bounce back from December where viewing figures were low due to a major holiday.
I wish I could do more but there’s just little old me! And Chris too of course for those following my exploits on Facebook Page Ronny Allan. Fortunately I have a great 2IC and admin team in my private group, so that runs as normal.
Firstly, I’ll list the top 10 performing blog posts in January 2025, I can assure you there is some great information in there, and you may have missed some of my newest blogs which also made it to the top 10. Click the blue heading or the picture on each. Every share spreads awareness and you could potentially save someone’s life. I normally post my new blog posts on my Facebook page Neuroendocrine Cancer and/or World Neuroendocrine Cancer Day. Holiday photos, personal stuff, and often some areas of amusement are normally published on my Facebook page Ronny Allan (although I sometimes sneak one in on these monthly reviews or on the main blog outlets).
I’m thankful to the loyal supporters on my blog site and the other social media sites day and night (and I do note some doing both!). I really am very grateful and probably would have given up long ago, were it not for your support.

The group was an afterthought. In terms of the largest patient groups across the world, mine is the newest but has grown into the biggest, perhaps the international flavour helps. In terms of membership sources, US,UK, Canada, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Ireland, India, Germany and Netherlands dominate making almost 90% of the group membership.
I estimate over 10,000 membership in the summer! Not as rare as you think!
