Are you having trouble sleeping?
Sleep problems may be caused by how you’re feeling emotionally, or as part of the side effects for cancer treatment. If you find it hard to have a good sleep, you’re not alone. The Online Community is here to support you 24/7.
“Getting a cancer diagnosis is extremely stressful, and that brings a whole load of emotions, and lack of sleep certainly does not help. I think many of us have periods of insomnia. I experienced a long period of not sleeping. I could go off to sleep quite quickly, but after an hour I would find myself wide awake again, and would spend the rest of the night getting frustrated because I couldn't sleep."

How am I? Umm ... feeling a little bit sorry for myself 
I have only mentioned my current bladder concern to one pal but haven't had a face to face chat.
Ironically, a male pal is having issues and is looking to have a procedure to remove bladder tumor. He has caused all kinds of chaos as he is very deaf and doesn't say he hasn't understood what he is being told by doctors.
He was telling everyone he has bladder cancer, they were going to cut him open and he might not wake up.
The pal that usually supports him has autism and got swept up in the panic.
Actually he has not got a diagnosis, will not be cut open and despite believing that at least two appointments in last few days were to have his operation, they will not proceed at all until further heart scans etc
Enough about me, how are you tonight?
Know the ropes? I only have access via my phone and working out how it all works again is awkward 
Sorry to hear of your situation. Did your diagnosis come as a shock or did you suspect?
Can you believe my injuries resulted from stepping on a pebble!
Cheers
