Anyone else finding rhe insomnia (from various cancer related things) is driving them crazy?! I seem to see 3am most nights at the moment and no matter what i do i can't sleep!
Hi heartonmysleeve44 and welcome to the cancer chat group.
I’m hoping you’ve managed to get some sleep now, but I just wanted to tell you about a special thread we have in the group for chatting to others who are also having problems sleeping. This is the link
This is usually a very active thread for any night owls to chat about anything and everything and you’ll often find others there who are in the same boat. Please feel free to join in, and you’ll find some lovely folk there who will be happy to meet you. We chat there at all times, during the day and night, so I hope you’ll join in whenever you’d like to.
I’ve seen you post in the womb group-I’m a member of that group because of my own circumstances, although my cancer was cervical - and I was sorry to read of the situation you find yourself in. The ladies there will I’m sure want to offer you their support, and there are particular threads in that group where others discuss being on chemo and immunotherapy which I’m sure my fellow community champion Jane in the womb group will direct you to when she sees your post there.
In addition to this, we have another group you might find it helpful to join which is here
Living with incurable cancer Forum
This is a special safe space for those with an incurable diagnosis, for patients only, who will understand the particular challenges of living with the disease. You need to request to join it when you click on the link, and the Macmillan admin team will action your request for you.
I hope you’ll find it helpful to be part of the Macmillan community now you’ve found us-you find lots of support here, and hopefully some new friends who will understand. You are very welcome to be with us.
