Overview

  • She posted on Instagram Stories that treatment “hits hard” on difficult days, making even simple activities feel heavy.
  • After her June surgery, pathology classified her tumour as poorly differentiated grade-3, prompting an 18-month targeted therapy regimen.
  • Her treatment plan includes daily oral medication and regular follow-up scans, with the first post-surgery imaging scheduled around the three-month milestone.
  • Side effects from the therapy—such as hair loss, skin rashes, mouth ulcers and ENT issues—have led to additional medications and lifestyle adjustments.
  • Dipika and her husband continue to update fans through social media and vlogs while balancing care for their young son and adhering to medical guidance.
