Scary scan results

So sorry to hear that you are both going through such a difficult time. It's perfectly understandable that you are worried to bits. Who wouldn't be if their soul mate was going through the same situation. I'm sorry to hear you don't have the support at work too. 

I don't really have any great words of wisdom as what you are both going through is stressful and difficult to deal with. But I'd like to offer some virtual support. I was diagnosed grade 3 Ovarian cancer June 18 and had the ops and chemo. Unfortunately mine recurred again last Oct. Even with that really annoying and devastating news it isn't the end of the line. I'm having targeted therapy to stop any tumours growing plus the chemo which blasts the worst of it out the system.

I've found some really inspiring women who have been living with ova cancer for years and years. Check out the stories on https://www.targetovariancancer.org.uk/ they make you realise that a recurrence doesn't mean the worse case scenario. So I suppose is what I am saying is try not to let worry take over your life, be there for your partner, scream as loud as you want but keep it together for the both of you. There's so much support on here, you are not alone.

Thank you sooooo much for taking the time to reply, your words have helped me alot and inspired me to get my positive practical head on, it's such a emotional rollercoaster and it means alot to know there is support on here as sometimes I do feel quite alone not wanting to bother my partner and family with my worries, thank you x

Ah that's ok. I wish you all the luck for the appointments. Keeping everything crossed. 

Take care x

You may find it useful to join the ovarian cancer group on here too. There are lots of discussions about treatments and what to expect from appointments. It might be helpful if your partner has to have more treatment. x
