Devastating diagnosis.

Hi...I really don't know what to do. Last week I was diagnosed with incurable cancer in my peritoneum. Last year in February I had a rare womb cancer diagnosis after years of visiting the gynaecology department and being fobbed off with menopause.

I had a radical hysterectomy and 6 monthly sessions of carboplatin.

I start the same chemotherapy treatment on Thursday to try to shrink or prevent further growth.

I just can't stop crying and I don't have the same feeling of hopefulness that I did last time.

What do I do?

Hi Nan, I've just read your post, I'm sorry to see you on this site.

I was not a very emotional man but when I was diagnosed I cryed for days, I think we all be strange if we didn't, on this site say what you want, ask what you want we are all the same club, total equality on here.

All the best Ulls

hiya

we are all here for the same reason, it’s hard but we are all equal in our support for each other, you cry as much as you need to and then have a rant, that’s how I coped, and not forgetting the wonderful people in this forum who have been there for me when I’ve needed support,

have a bright day if you can

hugs and hugs and xxx
