In\u00a0March 2026, we organized a medical lecture titled\u00a0<em>\u201cMedication Efficacy and Side Effects.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0We were honored to have Dr. Cheung, Neuro-Oncologist, as our guest speaker. Dr. Cheung shared valuable insights on the effectiveness of different medications, common side effects, and the treatment approach of \u201cdownsizing before resection.\u201d<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0The lecture attracted an enthusiastic response, with many members arriving early and listening attentively. Participants actively engaged in the discussion, raising numerous questions during the interactive session. Dr. Cheung patiently explained the common risk factors for colorectal cancer, outlined typical clinical scenarios, and introduced widely used chemotherapy drugs and treatment combinations.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this lecture, patients and caregivers gained professional medical knowledge, enabling them to better understand disease risks, drug efficacy, and side effects. The interactive Q&amp;A provided practical support, emotional comfort, and reassurance, helping to reduce anxiety and strengthen confidence in the treatment journey.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hong Kong Stoma Association regularly organizes medical talks to enhance health literacy and promote mutual support within the community. These sessions empower patients and their families, fostering resilience and connection throughout the treatment process. Given\u00a0the positive feedback received, the Association will continue to host more health education lectures in the future.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(by 2025\/27 Executive Committee Ms. Mary MA)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-acd0632 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"acd0632\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"451\" height=\"303\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ostomyasiasouthpacific.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/hksac2.png\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-6593\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ostomyasiasouthpacific.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/hksac2.png 451w, https:\/\/www.ostomyasiasouthpacific.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/hksac2-300x202.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 451px) 100vw, 451px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a1dad71 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a1dad71\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hong Kong Stoma Association regularly organizes medical talks to enhance health literacy and promote mutual support within the community.
