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."

Hi Alex 
Well whatever happens with any potential surgery, I'm hoping only for the best outcome my lovely.
In the meantime, do all the good things you've got lined up - meeting up with family and friends and enjoying eating out. Doing normal, enjoyable persuits is the way forward to take your mind away from the medical stuff.
Well done you for managing a short, but deep sleep - every little helps! Just try to relax, think nice thoughts and you might find yourself drifting off. Here's hoping sweetheart xxx
Good morning Alex 
and good luck with the scan today and all follow up results.
Fingers crossed you'll be seeing your family in London this weekend, but take good care of yourself whichever way things pan out.
Sending you big hugs sweetheart xxx
Evening allasada and a warm welcome to our group.
When I read your first post I did think, eh? but your second explained it 
How are you doing sweetie? Hopefully ok but maybe anxious about something. We're here if that's the case but I'll have to go awol for a while, as this is when I do my OH's care. Others might be still about but I'll be back later if you'd like a chat xxx
