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."

I honestly couldn’t agree more with Gill-none of this is your fault. You relied on the medical professionals when they were telling you the biopsies were clear-why wouldn’t you? But I hope Gill has calmed your thoughts a bit about other potential options. And I hope you’ve managed some sleep.

I just noticed this post about your pain. I’m not sure what your situation is as you are not in any of the specific cancer support groups, but sorry to read that your pain is more difficult at night. You can be in as many groups as you’d like to be, and you may find it helpful to join a specific group to connect with others who are going through exactly the same thing and will understand.
It’s fine of course not to join other groups and stick with the chat here but if you’d like some help joining other groups in addition to this one, I’d be happy to help you find the right places for extra support.

Sorry to hear that you are having a run of bad luck at the moment. Like others have said none of this is your fault . I hope you managed to get some sleep last night.
I give this advice, but it's easier said than done.
