I have just been told that I have stomach cancer that has spread (not sure where to yet). Am told that chemo will be the way forward. Have to wait until after the Bank Holiday though so best part of five days in limbo.
Anyone out there gone through stomach cancer? Not really sure what I am asking tbh but just thought I would reach out.....
Hi Jez Pet and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm sorry to read about your recent diagnosis and well done for reaching out for support.
The online community is divided up into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the stomach cancer group which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support from others with this type of cancer.
To join just click on the link I've created which will take you straight to the group where you can then join and post in the same way as you did here. You can also join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
This link will take you to a blog which explains how to get the best out of the online community but if you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help
